Well, I haven't weighed today since I just got home (it's 4:45pm) and I prefer to weigh in the morning. However, I have to say my stomach does look flatter, especially in clothes. So, it will be really interesting to weigh myself!
Mind you, I haven't eaten too well over the weekend. Yesterday when I arrived at the roadhouse, I ate a packet of chips (after searching to find one that is vegan), and quite a bit of red liquorice (YUMMO). However, for tea I just ate a pitiful apricot (everyone else ate spag boll). This morning I ate half an atkins bar, some dates, an apple and an apricot. Oh, and a piece of plain toast!
I missed my yummy morning smoothie, but oh well, I will have it tomorrow! Tonight I will probably have some salad and a vegie burger or sausage. Hmm... I do hope I am below 69kg cause I want to buy a pair of boots and I promised myself I wouldn't order them until I was 69kg! Not that I can really afford boots...hmm... well I do want them hehe and it is motivation ;) I think I'll just treat myself for every 5kg I lose! At least that keeps me relatively motivated.
I really look forward to being in the 50s again lol, but the 60s is a good start! I do feel better, and I do think I look thinner. I took pictures on Feb 1st, but won't take more until I've finished the 6 weeks so I can see the difference! (And now, I am sure there will be one!)
Hmmm in so many ways I feel like I'm taking one step forward and two steps back! I don't mind going the other way, even two steps forward and one back is going in a net positive direction! I just look around and the house is a pigsty and I have a ton of work or things that I want to do that just don't get done! As it's a public holiday for me, today has been completely unproductive. I haven't done any exercise at all, not riding or EPOC so I'm a day out with that too. I know I need to take a deep breath and just take things one step at a time! Tomorrow I will put a good solid hour into just regular house cleaning (not sorting etc.) just making the house fairly presentable. Then each day thereafter I will choose one thing to spend an hour on. Eventually I'll run out of things to do (well we're talking after months here) and I won't need to spend as long doing it. The problem is my weekends have been unproductive, mostly because my husband has been here, or as this weekend, I've visited him. As for work, well I just need to use the time I have at home on my own productively! If I spend a good few hours each day working, there's no reason why I can't accomplish everything I need to.
I was just looking at school term dates, and it looks as though there's only three weeks left of the term. Geez that went fast! I guess it was a short term because Easter is fairly early this year. But still! There will be another two unproductive weeks ;) I hope I don't let all my good habits slide when the kids are home! Those two weeks will still be crucial for my weight loss efforts. I'll just have to drag the kids out on their bikes or for walks!
