The big Four 0

No I haven’t reached the age milestone yet; it 40 kilos’ lost since I started my new life…

This mornings weigh in was 94.7kg – meaning 40kg’s dropped in just over 7 months… What an achievement… Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would have been 40kg’s lighter – and still going… especially in the time frame I’ve done it in as well.

The other night I had a bit of a throw out too… Got rid of some old shorts and jeans that no longer fit; but there’s still a full wardrobe to go when I can find the time…What’s even more encouraging is that some of the new shorts I bought back in December are now falling off me as well… So I guess it will be a whole new wardrobe again next summer.

While my blogs have lessened in the last month or so; my will to succeed certainly hasn’t and this latest milestone is a great feeling. I’m getting used to what I can and can’t eat and when (bread and any doughy stuff is a no no before lunch) blockages are becoming less… As I explained to someone at work; I’d rather know what I can and cannot eat when I’m in a controlled environment at home or work, than being stuck on the road and have the wrong thing, simply because there was no other choice.

My next challenge is 2 weeks at the Sydney Royal Easter Show where I will be working from Monday – the good thing about it is the prices of the food means there won’t be much eating of the traditional crappy food of the fair.

Until next time
