well three months today and i can say between dec 19th and Jan 18th I have lost 6lbs.
I am disappointed but there was xmas inbetween hey! but my losses have slowed right down.
Maybe this is due to my exercising I am not sure.
Going forward I am going to watch what I eat a little more and increase the protein!. I have today signed up for the race for life 5k..not planning on running it but walking it this year!
Today i started my training and walked for about 20 mins..going to do that again friday then three times a week from next week.. increasing the time etc.
Hoping that this will keep me focused as i have a long way to go on the weight loss front..
I am 2lbs off my 50lbs first goal so not bad going.. hopefully i will hit that soon! fingers crossed hey..

I was a tad naughty!
well yesterday I was naughty! in fact I was VERY naughty...It was Danielles 21 st birthday so there was a very large cake in the house but I did only manage one small slice(before WLS I would have had ate three times the quanity)
but, yesterday I also ate a Greggs cornbeef pasty plus a chinese...omg!! major kcals alert...gain expected!
Today though I have been a star pupil soo far.. a 2 mile walk around our nearest country park which is very hilly..
Tonight a Zumba class so I am hoping that this will burn off some of the day before extra kcals lol..
However, a meal out this afternoon is planned in the Harvester but least I can have a salad and a starter and I dont think that will not be soo bad hey.
Work tomorrow and this week my goal is to start swimming . depending on how much i ache 2moro is when i start...
Race for life website with the dates goes live next week so I can put my name down for that and then concentrate on getting fit for that!!.. I know its only 3.3 miles and its pretty much flat but right now that is a long way for me.. the two miles I walked this morn was lovely but I was shattered afterwards..
I want to be able to walk 4 miles and not to collapse at the end!
getting close to my three month mark on Wednesday.. getting nervous as its measurement time too ...nervous.
off for a soak in the bath i am frozen to the bone after that walk.

well a day shopping in cardiff for my daughter to find a party dress for her 21st!. Think we went in every shop in queen street to ST Davids 1 and 2 .. then went back to one of the first to buy a purple lacey dress (its stunning).
It made me think of myself in a few months time and maybe I could wear a dress? I would love that!!
maybe for my anniversary in July? really shock my husband? maybe a plan...see how I go hey!
After shopping a little bit of me time was soo needed and a trip to Soul Beauty was required.. a facial, lip and eye brow wax and a brow tint. sooo relaxing!.
I really like being a bit girly so decided I want this lots more so appointments booked plus more treatments eyelash tint next time..
on top of all the above and its only 4:30 me and my husband took our Yorkie Jack for a long walk first thing this morning when the frost was still on the ground it was sooo lovely and fresh (but freezing).
Danielle is 21 tomorrow so there will be a birthday cake in the house (major kcal alert) allowing myself a small piece only. Then Sunday off out with the family to Harvester for the birthday meal which, will be lovely. Loads of fresh salad and a starters for me.. mmm
5 more days to my three month point and i,m hoping that last month was a good loss again..
Will post soon x

SORRY!! I weighed!.... promised myself and my hubby that I would not weigh until the 18th Jan (my three month point) but.... whilst cleaning the bathroom ..they were calling me from the far end of the room....jump on me....jump on me... SO, i did!...and.....drum roll pls? 2lbs gone again and coming down in the 17s (major smile)
Three years ago after the birth of my youngest Grace i tipped the scales at 17:12 (big i know) but, after gaining many stones after the birth i can say in under three months I am at the same weight! and feeling fanastic.
Long way to go but i,m only 12 weeks post op!.. what would i have lost at the 6 months point hey? would love for it to be 5 stone plus.
Goal right now is to get too 12 stone and re evaluate so 5 stone 12lbs to go..
decided not to tell my husband i weighed lol other wise he will hide the scales AGAIN!!
Today, is a non hungery day and I have hardly eaten or drunk anything (not good i know) went into Cardiff for a little bit of retail and to get my daughters 21st birthday pressie (a pandora bracelet). So, i walked my legs off around the shops.
Wii fit later for a bit of aerobics and maybe a little of the treadmill.
Tommorrow is another retail day!.. back to cardiff with no 1 daughter to hunt for the perfect party dress.
Also booked myself in for a facial,lip and eye wax and a eyebrow tint so will feel a little but pampered after that!.
