Last year, 2009 I lost a total of 30kg. Great huh! Yeah it was.....until I hit the brakes, started to party! Had a fantastic time. I had confidence and wanted to get out and show it. I swore I would "never go backwards"
The partying slowed once I could no longer fit all the great clothes I was able to buy at my lowest weight in about 10years. Slowly but surely I started to hide again. Went back to my old hermit ways. Avoiding people, places and cameras at all costs! I hate it this way. I much prefer the confident fun loving me!
Anyway, I regained 20kg from November last year until now.
I managed to relocate my trusty scales about a week ago. Replaced the batteries that I had conveniently forgotten to do all year and faced them. Bam, just like that, 20kg to "re lose"!
Plus the 20kg I didnt get to doing the first time round.
So here I am, "Take 2". I hit the brakes on the weight gain, am making small changes now in preperation for the big ones soon to come. Turning around and heading downward in the numbers, once again.
What's different this time?
1 I am wiser. I've done this before. I know exactly what it takes!
2 I am more content in my life than I can remember for such a long long time.
3 I am starting this blog!
Below is a link to some pics I had on fb during my journey last year. Hopefully it works because in my true hermit style, I made the album not visible to any of my fb friends when the weight was reappearing! (Kel can you try for me pls?)

Right now I am setting myself a 5week goal. Hubby leaves tomorrow for work for 5 weeks, there is a distraction gone! I can focus on me more.
And also, I have my nephews 18th...which my Personal Trainer and very close friend is DJ for. Hmmm motivation much!?! I avoided seeing him from about Feb this year. Horrible avoiding someone you have so much respect for and love spending time with!
So, how much can I lose in 5 weeks....we shall see!
Im sadly, an all or nothing girl, so time will most definately tell.
Bye for now,
Jen
