Weigh in - 30
This morning saw the scales 1.0kg lower to sit at 19.5kg lost and 8kgs to go. It also saw the month lower by 500gms. I am really happy with that. At the beginning of the month I had a large gain which followed a gain the week before. It was the first time I had gained twice in a row and I could see that it would have been very easy to chuck the whole thing away. Which is ridiculous really because why should a gain of 2.5kgs throw the loss of 17.1kgs (at that time) out the window. We are a strange breed. LOL. But I pulled my finger out and did what I needed to do to pull it back. I wasn't expecting quite a loss this week, I was hoping for 500gms to at least keep this month as a maintenance one, but am very happy with the loss.
So, it is now a new month. Only 6 weigh-ins until we leave for Adelaide. If I keep my determination hat on (I will remove it for a suitably fluffy Race Day hat tomorrow) then I should end up at a very reasonable weight for Christmas.
It is the end of my 6 week challenge. I have to admit to not following it as strictly in the last 3 weeks but I can still see a major change in the shape of my upper legs and butt. I will be trying on the size 12's on the way to pick up the boys this afternoon so will report on the fit later. The new Christmas Walking challenge will be starting soon and this one is an all steps challenge so I will set that up and start walking my way to Christmas.
I am going to have a great week :)

Well done! I hope you took off your determination hat to get weighed - you don't want those extra grams showing up on the scales :)

Hey M,
Well done on the scales going down... Hope the pants re-fit went well, but if not, you've got 6 weeks till your trip, so that can be your new goal.
Thanks for the Glamourpuss info too - I think Marilyn M is a total stunner, and if I looked anything like her beautiful figure, I'd be totally satisfied!

Great loss - you are so so close now!! I can't help but feel a little envious, since we started at the same time - but you know what? I'm over it - I'm so proud of you, and so happy for you, and YOU have given me inspiration, for once this baby is born, to really go for it. You ROCK!!
