Weigh in - 18
I worked for it this week. I stuck to my points. I planned for the party. I moved my butt. And the scales reflected it with an even 1kg loss this week taking me to 80.3kgs. So that is 15.2kgs of lard gone. Forever! That means I lost this week, the same amount that I lost for the entire month last month. It is amazing what a well aimed kick in the butt can do for your drive ;)
A year ago today I gave birth to DS2. I put on a reasonable amount during the pregnancy and lost all but 5kgs of it within 3 weeks. But then I started putting it on again. At the beginning of this year I made a half-baked attempt at changing my habits, but all I did was go on a diet then return to form. At my heaviest, after the birth, I was over 100kgs. I started my ww journey at 95.5kgs. I am now 80.3kgs. What a difference a year makes.
This photo was taken about 2 hours after the birth and is the first time DS1 met DS2. I love this photo. I may not look my best but this is a great snapshot of my family. And I had just been for a bit of a workout !!
I spent most of today in bed so did not develop the film, this will be a task for tomorrow. Along with moving to a different floor at work & setting up my desk. Oh what exciting plans. But looking forward to walking, bouncing, stretching, getting back into it. I am going to have another great week this week :)

Fantastic loss - especially since you had the party yesterday - well done sister! What a beautiful photo - although you look quite different than you do in other photos. Wow 15 + kgs gone - you ROCK! Goal by christmas perhaps? I know you won't want to put a time frame on it, but I can see you getting there definitely!! :-) How exciting!

Happy 1st anniversary of your second birth-day!
It's great to know the difference that can take affect, both in a week and a year, if you stick to your guns... now aren't you the little(r) model weight watcher!
(Looking at all your faces is cracking me up! You're glowing and looking expectantly at DS1, who in turn looks a little apprehensive [I remember that when my brother came along]. Meanwhile, your husband is fixated on DS2. It's beau-ti-ful!)

Champion effort party lady with the fancy shoes and nails.....truly that's a great result, and, truly lurvvvv the shoes and feet. I really have a thing for shoes and feet...not in a weird way though (i think) For a long time I spent so much money on shoes cos they were the only thing I could get to fit me that was fashionable but now that has all changed.
Anyway, enough about me - have a great week and enjoy playing with the new toys :)
