GOAL

On Monday 17th December I made my Weight Watchers goal of 62 kilograms. I had to lose 100 grams from the previous week's weigh-in, and that is all I lost. But that is all I needed to lose to make goal.
I was stoked that I had done it by Christmas.

I was asked on the online board for the gory details. This is what I wrote in response.

I joined ww online in October last year and since then have lost 30 kgs. Before I joined I had lost about 6 kgs in the previous 6 months, but was sort of half-hearted.What got me focussed was a blood test result that showed my cholesterol and blood sugar way too high.

That gave me a big fright, so I joined online the day I got the test results.I started on points, but within 3 months, changed to core, and became a core convert/junkie. I LOVE core, and I think this will be heaps easier on maintenance, too.

How does it feel? - I keep grinning when I think about it. I am just so stoked that I have done it, that I could follow through, and not let the little bumps become big bumps or stop me altogether.

My most recent blood tests show that my cholesterol and blood sugars are fine, and my blood pressure is normal too. I have chronic health issues, so cannot say I feel healthy, but I know I am a whole lot healthier than I was 36 kilos ago.

I love clothes shopping now. Into size 12 stuff, but my size 12 jeans are a little loose. I also enjoy seeing myself in a mirror - some skinny chick looks back at me!
