The fog is lifting

Sorry for the lack of updates since last week. Have just been trying to get organised and settle some family issues with my brother and stuff.

I really haven't had a riviting journal over the last few months have I but I think sometimes you just need to take a step back, get things organised and come back with new energy. A big thank you to all of you out there that have stuck with me through this time.

Well weigh-in on Friday wasn't the greatest. Am now 76.1, so 2.1kg gained in 5.5 weeks. Am now looking at not trying to lose that, but maintain it for the next few weeks, just till it all balances out.

I did end up going for a total of 3 x 30min walks last week, so just 1 under what I aimed to do.

Today I have decided to start to record my eating. Not with points and stuff, but just so I can be accountable for what's going into my mouth. Over the last couple of weeks I have just been stuffing this and that in with not much thought to it.

I have had 1 x 30min walk so far this week and this morning I did 10mins on the stepper before walk and will be doing another 30min walk today.

Have also been thinking about overhauling my blog page. Need to get it up to date.

It is taking some adjustment to think that I am not trying to lose weight at the moment. My weightloss is all I have thought about since January last year. That's 21 months and now it's all on hold. And when just a couple of weeks ago the Biggest Loser had me pumped, I now think "I wish I could do that". I am also envious of all you guys out there, especially Jules and Paulene who are just doing so awesome at the moment.

But then I think, I am on a 8 month break. Taking some time out while I extend my family. In this time I can think about how I can improve my weightloss when this time is over and by the time my pregnancy is over I should be really hanging out to get back to it. Let's just hope I don't put on too much during it. I only put on 10kg with Bethany but that was thanks to some killer morning sickness.

So my aim now is to be healthy and happy. Enjoy this time. Eat as well as I can manage but not come down on myself for any slip-ups. Exercise as much as I can without over-doing it and just enjoy the exercise I do get. And finally, be happy. So much has happened this year within my immediate family (brother, sister & mother) that just makes me grateful for what I have.

So now for my new sign-off. I can't keep trying at the moment so my new sign-off:

Be Happy
Kim
