Hi all, still plodding along slowly. Although I said I wouldn't, I weighed myself yesterday and though I wasn't surprised after the few weeks I have had with my eating (terrible!!) I have sadly gained back the weight I lost in that past month or so. Only 2-3kg, but still I was so proud for being under 90kg finally, the first time in so long, and now I'm back up to 91kg
Ah well, back to it I suppose. I am hoping to go for a wakl this arvo. I have been doing lots of heavy house work, like vacuuming the whole house every second day (at least a 20min activity!), cleaning the bathrooms and kitchen really well (liek scrubbing tiles ect), a little gardening, as well as doing some games on the wii (not the wii fit, just games) with DD and DS1. So although I haven't been actually exercising, I am trying to be more active in my daily activities, the plus side being I have a clean house too! I want to get a pedometer because I am sure I am not doing anything near 10000 steps a day being at home with the kids. We don't go anywhere really, or do that much through the week (we live in the sticks, there's not very much to do!), so I don't think I would reach 10000 steps at all. And that is probably including a 40min walk each day!
Eating is so so. DH is so not helping me. We both need to and want to lose weight, but we just can't both get it together at the same time! When he falls off the wagon, I've just gotten back on, and vice versa. We are having a tough time supporting each other because we are both struggling so much individually! It sucks! Plus he is working alot, and DS2 isn't sleeping too well, so we are totally sleep deprived. I actually have been reading a bit about sleep deprivationa nd trying to lose weight/eat right. And sleeplessness does nothing for a person who is trying to eat well and have some will power!!
But I will keep on trying, I have to get ehre sooner or later right??
