First off for today... the Aussy Family.
Someone asked me yesterday why I no longer had Tess in the photo with Russ and kids?
Simple. Tess and Russell have split up. It looks to be a permanent split.
And that is all I shall say on the subject.
TODAY is Day 30 !!!
If it's not kinda what I HOPE... all is not lost!
I will just aim to do better for the next 30 days!
I didn't re-gain the weight in 30 Days, so I sure in hell won't lose it in 30 Days either!
As long as I do my best, I can be happy with myself.
POSITIVE thinking... POSITIVE attitude...POSITIVE RESULTS.
Now, as it's still rather early in the morning, and I always retain fluid over the course of the previous evening, I shall be stepping on the scales AFTER I've had me piddle pill, so around LUNCHTIME.
I hope I can hang out that long, and YOU too ? ... *smiles*
We can be at a foodcourt in a mall and he is sitting near a baby... and he just can't help himself. He talks to anyone's baby! Once a young Mum got concerned and turned her baby's highchair around so Stew couldn't talk to her baby!!! lol
We have no plans as such for the day... probably do the housework then some sewing. I've still got those three bags to finish...
ONWARD...
So... 11.30 and I couldn't wait any longer!
DRUM ROLL PLEASE: ............
I LOST 8 KILOS in my first 30 Days!!!!!
That is 17.6 pounds
That is 17.6 pounds
To say I am thrilled to bits would be an understatement. I'm utterly wrapt.
I have to tell you this. It is AMAZING weighing only 'monthly'... or every 30 days like I am doing!!!
I feel like crying... it is just so good to see such a massive loss in 30 days! AND... I did not starve, I still ate carbs, I had one day 'off' a week and I still lost 8 kilos!
Oh the suspense................
ReplyDeleteOh Chris, I am so sorry about Russ and Tess. They looked so happy together especially at Christmas time at your place. I am very sorry!
ReplyDeleteAwwwww the photo of Stew chatting to Dante is gorgeous especially as he is still in his suit from work :)
ReplyDeleteOh I have to wait till lunch time..... oh the suspense!!! LOL
I'll be back then.... :)

ReplyDeleteGood luck with the weigh in !!!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck! Thinking of you!

I had to laugh at you keeping everyone in suspense about the weigh-in. However it turns out your effort has been very positive and will pay off in the long run.
ReplyDeleteWell done on the weight loss ...Keep up the good work! Shelley

ReplyDeleteHi Chris - CONGRATLUATIONS!! I am so pleased for you. With all the things that you have had to deal with to lose that much weight is nothing short of incredible. You must reward yourself with something non- food related! Maybe a massage or facial? Enjoy your success. Love Karen xo

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your awesome loss over the last 30 days. So happy for you that what you are doing is working for you.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the Aussie family. Too much heartache.
Enjoy your weekend.
Blessings
Congrats. I lost nothing so far.
ReplyDeleteWhat does Anon mean about Russel? Either? who else is anon referring to?
ReplyDeleteI also agree with the comment regarding that your tone has been so much better lately :) Nice
Some other people would have a tone in their writing if they had to endure what Chris has had to deal with,
ReplyDeleteHey Chris - would you mind writing the main changes that you have made to lose this weight? I would love to read what you have done! Thanks
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic result, it was great to hear the other day when youn mentioned clothes fitting better, that was a good sign. I need to take a leaf out of your book and stay away from the scales :) big hugs, a job well done.
ReplyDeleteOh Chris, that's fantastic. I think I'm gonna start calling you Droopy Draws! If you keep shedding pounds like that, you won't be able to keep your draws on!
ReplyDeleteIrena, Greece
I did not mean anything negative when I said "tone". I meant she has sounded more positive lately. It was a compliment. Wrong choice of word no doubt - but the rest of my comment I thought would show that I was not having a dig.
ReplyDeleteTo Anonymous, my comment wasn't toward you at all, you said it in a nice way, I know exactly what you meant,Chris does sound happier.
ReplyDeleteThanks Magpie
ReplyDeleteWTG I'm so proud of you! Isn't it awesome to put the weight in perspective to the kids?? Every time I lift up a huge box of cat litter that says 28 pounds and I struggle to carry it around I remind myself that I lost almost double that. It's no wonder I was so miserable trying to cart that extra weight around!
ReplyDeleteBig congratulations well done!
ReplyDeleteWell done luv - 8 kilos is amazing :)
