4 MONTH WEIGH IN

Well where has the time gone hey!! its 4 months already and I am still happy with my wrap and  the results so far. I weighed this morning and i have lost 56lbs since the the pre op on the 9th October 2011.
Restriction with the wrap is good..somedays i feel I can eat more than I should then the following days i just do not want to eat..I am watching what i eat and the KCALS on everything that goes into my big mouth lol
Plus i am now exercising three times a week and from this week I am upping this to 4 times a week plus walking more...
I have bought a gorgous Labrador puppy who is called Charlie and he will be my walking buddy for the years ahead! hes gorgous lol
I have gone from a 26/28 in clother sizes  to a 20 which in 4 months is beyong my wildest dream!!!.
I went into Cardiff shopping the other day and walked into Evans and thought hey I DONT NEED TO BE IN HERE ANYMORE I can buy clothers elsewhere....So I went to another shop on the high street called m @co and bought a gorgous top wohoooooooo

Still got a long way to to with another 5 stone before i will be happy but theres no rush hey!! and I dont want to be greedy.

Wednesday, 18 January 2012

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.
