Week 13 - lost 1.3kg

This has got to be the first time in my life that I have really achieved something by sticking with it (apart from starting my own business last year). I get bored pretty quickly so this is a huge turning point in my life, where I am able to look at things and stay with it for long enough. I am completely blown away by the results.

I reached my 10% goal today and have successfully stuck with WW for 12 weeks now!

I was good this week, maybe a little less exercise but not eating rubbish to make up my points. I did have a Heaven Icecream (6.5 points) for dinner one night but that's all good. I think I have found my balance with food and my lifestyle and that's an awesome feeling.

It's a long weekend in this part of the world so I am going to enjoy it. Hope everyone else has a great weekend too!

Whooooooo Hoooooo

That is absolutely fantastic.

With a killer attitude, a belief in yourself, tools to guide you, you have hit these remarkable milestones in your journey.

10kgs gone forever - sorry - 10.5kgs gone...

You give us so much each time you post, a great outlook on life, a balanced approach, and for being a techno nerd (yes we know all about the spreadsheets now !!)

Have a fantastic long weekend :)

** BIG congratulations HUGS **

Wowzah, that's fantastic Mary!! Like LMS said, for sticking to WW and for getting your 10% and for such a great loss this week too. Go you!

Also, isn't it the best feeling when you start feeling ashamed of your body and liking what you see instead? I think that's one of the hardest things of all in weight loss because it's a head thing, a mental thing, not just the 'simple' matter of eating better and exercising more to lose weight. It's a lot harder to get to the stage of really liking your body. So well done. :)

Have a great weekend Mary. You are going great guns and I'm so pleased to have you in the meetings. Can't wait to hear what you do with your star!

Mary said...

Shucks, you guys are all so cool. Thanks for the support! I really don't think I would have stuck to this without the blogging community as well. Lorna, I reckon I should go in the next Slimmer of the Year competition with you as my fabulous leader..haha! I'm hanging the star in my home office, as a reminder. I usually get cravings while working so it'll be a good reminder.

Karen said...

Wow .. congrats Mary you have done so amazingly well. I know you are an inspiration to many here including me (who is not a WW but struggling on my own). I do hope I see you in a future edition of WW mag and Slimmer of the Year woud be a deserving title for you.

Hope you have a great long weekend and enjoy the fruits of your success. Unfortunately I have to work the trains dont stop for anybodys birthday.

Kate said...

What a fantastic loss!! Woohooo! So proud of you! You are well over half way now. Well done on achieving your 10% too, and sticking at this whole thing. You deserve to feel really proud of yourself. You really are an inspiration :-) Have a great long weekend!

K said...

Mary, u rock!! Well done on 10% lost, you must really notice a difference & not very far from the top of your weight watchers range now - maintenance is so close!
I've heard a few different versions of this saying(time period wise), but it takes 12 weeks to form a habit! & look at you, twelve weeks of dedication to WW!! awesome stuff!
I'm a bit tragic as I still have my 10% star from WW first time round on my keyring!! I've nearly re earnt it, lol :P

Hello. Mad pram pushing women here. Did you know that Sydney is not flat. It is in fact lots and lots of undulating hills. Why did anyone not tell me this when I decided to walk 3+ hours today. Did no-one think this important?

Well, actually, neither did I. It was good to get off my assets..

Thanks for your comments today. It's always great to have a laugh..

Hope you had a great weekend.
Cheers :)
