1 pound to go!!!

I managed to lose 5LB this weekend so only got 1LB to go to my official ww target! not too confident about losing it this week because just starting 4 night shifts I will be really good but i always think it makes you feel so bloated and yucky! but fingers crossed! I fitted into my first EVER size 10 pair of jeans! My mum made me try on her jeans and they fitted! Can't believe it! I have never ever been in a size 10 in my life! Looking back the last time i wore a size 12 was 7 years ago! Keep your fingers crossed for me!!

new year, new start!

2010 has begun, the year of my wedding. Im starting this year 32lb lighter than i was in 2009! Its a great feeling, however I wish i was at my goal. Not to worry as won't be long in getting there i'm sure. I put on 1/2 a pound over christmas and new year, must say i was shocked as it feels like i have put on far more than that! Gutted I was only 2.5lb away form goal and now i'm 6 but i need to pull it back together and quickly! I'm feeling positive and raring to go. It's only 15 weeks and4 days to my wedding(not that i'm counting! ha) and want to loose another 12lb. I have joined a Easter challenge on the weight watchers boards to try give me a target! I m going to treat myself to a nice pair of diesel jeans when i get to 10 stone. Cant wait! just want to get to just under 10 stone. Last night I packed my food bag for work (i do 12 hour shifts so i take breakfast, lunch and a snack to work with me) and pre pointed it all and wrote it down. I never let another thing pass my lips at work. I'm happy to say that this was successful today! I have moved to a new ward and everyone says that there are so many goodies in the ward that everyone that moves to the ward puts on 2 stones in 6 months! aaaaaaa i don't need anymore temptation so need to continue to be strong. I have figured that if i don't have any chocolates I'm fine but if i start that's when i keep going! Around 4-5 o'clock i start to get hungry and that's when my will power weakens! So today i grabbed an apple and seemed to work! I want this more than ever as I don't want to look back at my wedding pictures and regret what i look like. I don't want to be a fat bride. I don't care how many people say to me "you don't need to loose any more weight!", it doesn't matter what other people think, its how I feel and i just want to feel happy and confident with myself and that's what this weight loss journey is all about!
