You guys are such gems. A big shout out to each and every one of you - thanks. Advice, support, (virtual) hugs and smiles - I know I can always come here when I am need in any of these.

Your support coupled with an impromptu lunch with my darlin' hubby made me pretty smily for a while!

So I have a positive to share to day - even if it is an entirely selfish one....

I have lost about 3 kilos since I started really monitoring my weight. I am today wearing a size 12 pair of pants that I was going to give to charity because I was far to big for them.

SO...about this time last year I was a size 16 who weighed who knows what. Now I weigh 73 kilos and I am back into a SIZE 12!!! Woohoo! My intermediate goal weight is 70 kilos, and I hope to get to about 65 before May, because Adam and I have booked a holiday to Cairns and I wanna look "super hot" in shorts and bathers!!

Big hugs to those who need them.

Love and light
MissJ

Hi there Jo :)

Sorry I missed your post yesterday. I'll still send you a big smile & hug anyway :D (((((HUG))))) :D

Glad to see you're feeling a bit better today and well done on losing some weight. :) It feels great doesn't it. I still haven't been back to my gym yet as I'm still on holiday (I know that's just an excuse), but I haven't put on weight since I last went. It does fluctuate a little but that's mainly from fluids which is normal.

Anyway, good luck with that goal. Keep up the great work - 3kg in 2 months is a reasonable goal. I'm sure you'll do it no worries. :)

Take care! :)

Luv, ((hugz)) & smiles
