Things I've learnt about my self this week...

So I weighed in this morning on my Biggest loser Wii game 12 week challenge. I have to say that I was slack with the exercise this week. Food wise I did meal replacement for a few days. On the other days I did pack my new Fancy lunch box with low carb fresh food and protein. I only bought 2 take away lattes this week and no Fast food at all.. (wow I just realised that)

Week 2 of the challenge The numbers are in and I lost 2kg ( 4.4lb) so that's 5kg (11lb) in 2 weeks! WTF... how odd.. I really wasn't expecting that.. Of course I have a lot to loose so again it's probably fluid! I do feel motivated to actually put more effort in this week. Really going to watch the food intake and the carbs. I will try for at least 4 wii sessions..

So after my thought provoking conversation with my friend and after reading all of your blogs and a bit of soul searching... I come up with a few things Ive learnt about me!

1. I like green ...
If you had asked my fav colour 6 months ago I wouldn't have been able to tell you.. Some how its take on a life of it's own with green dotted right through my life... Odd!!!

2. Some things about me are personality traits not because I've been over weight for the last 20 years. ( I am yet to test this one out) I could be wrong!

3. My self esteem is a big whooping joke...

4. People see me differently to the way I see my self...

That's all for now there was plenty more I am sure but this is a journey so it will make more sense as I go along!

1 month to I see the surgeon for my last pre op appointment!!!! tick tick tick....

In other news I am waiting the arrival of my sister baby any day now! This of course has been on my mind for a while now..  Ive been back at work for 2 weeks and haven't attended any births or caught any babies yet so maybe she will be my first of 2010! I do plan on keeping a log this year I have been saying that for the last 9 years but I will this year !

Loving having a day off I am off to tend my organic veggie patch !

Hi Katherine! I just found your blog through Debi's. I'll have to read through your old posts and get caught up. It sounds like you're getting your head together for surgery(which can only help).
I have a blog too - I hope you can check it out. I'm 7 months post op and 60 pounds lost. So I'm not the quickest, but doing well.
Good luck - I'm excited to read about your progress.

How cool-- an organic veggie patch?? Wow.
Watch that self-esteem get better over time as you go through this journey. It is not always easy, but you will gain confidence once you have the band-- at least that is starting to happen for me. It is an amazing transformation.
