![]() Monday, September 05, 2005 Day 1, Week 1 Well here goes folks. Spring is here and I have signed up for Paulene's 12 week challenge. I was a bit apprehensive at first (will explain more shortly) but have decided to give it a go. Weighin on Friday gave me a 600g loss down to 74.8kg. Very happy with that considering my eating became quite disasterous again. Now to explain why I have been so erratic over the last few weeks. I was certain that I was pregnant. I know I have said this before but I had nausea and dry reaching, constant dizziness. I got severe pains in the tummy if I wasn't eating every hour enough to make me gag, very sore boobies and even a case of thrush which I have never, ever had in my life before and I found out it can be caused by pregnancy. In fact I was certain right up until yesterday morning. My TOM is due today but I took a test yesterday and it was negative and I also started to lightly spot so am 98% sure I am not so I am going to throw myself back to weightloss. But it raises a question. If I am lucky enough to get pg. I can't just throw everything away. I need to make myself a battle plan just in case. Now back to the matter at hand. Yesterday I went for a 30min walk and also did 10min on my mother-in-law's exercise bike. Today shocking weather is due to hit but am going for a walk no matter what. Today is the first day of our challenge and I am not going to let a bit of rain stop me! Finally I am asking for your help. Last week Kate mentioned about having a friend go shopping with her and helping her whenever she was tempted by naughty stuff. Now I am not that lucky but would like you all to help me. I need you to post a comment for me. Pretend you are shopping with me and I am reaching for a packet of Tim Tams or a block of Peppermint chocolate. What would you say to me? I am going to take all your messages, use my scrapbooking sticker maker and make myself a motivation tool to take with me. That way I can look at it whenever I am week to keep myself good. So Please help me! So today is day 1, week 1 of the 12 week challenge. This mornings weighin was 76.1kg. Lets go! ![]() |
