When I first started this weight loss thing I had no idea how I would do. So I said I wouldn’t be putting up any photo’s until I’d got to my goal weight.

But I also had no idea how GOOD I would look being only just half way to my goal weight.

Tonight I weighed in and in fifteen weeks I’ve lost fifteen kilo’s. That’s 33 pounds.

I’m SO excited about it and so happy with myself that I want to shout it from the roof tops. I’ve looked for a billboard around town to see if I can post this picture on it for everyone to see. I want to shout out “LOOK! Look what I have done!”

I just had to buy new pants, because my old one’s were literally falling off me. When I started losing weight I was in a very loose size 22. Let’s just call it a size 24 to be safe. When I tried on these pants I was stunned. Size 16. I haven’t fit in to a size 16 in almost as many years!

So here it is. A sad before photo…and a stunning half way there photo.

If you’ve ever wanted to lose weight but sat and thought you couldn’t do it, you can.

Mum: Jaxon what are we going to do today?

Jaxon: “got no money”

Mind you, he had his mouth full of rice bubbles. He could have said “go see bunny” or “eat some honey”

I’m sticking with got no money. I didn’t tell him it’s pay day, he seems to have come to terms with the no money thing very well. No need to get his hopes up.

Dookie was kind enough to HELP me take the washing off the line today.

I rewarded him generously.

For some reason, Tim’s work asked anyone that had holidays up their sleeves, to take a four day weekend. This meant, that Tim was home on Friday…and Jaxon was not. Now, we miss the lil guy heaps…but it’s not often we BOTH get to pick up our camera’s and just go.

We went to an old burnt out house in town. It’s a really sad story actually. The house is heritage listed, which means any renovation’s done need all sorts of permits and are regulated heavily. So the owner’s completely fixed up the house…and then three weeks later, once all their hard work was done…it burnt down!

I don’t know why, but the house has never been fixed up again. It’s been four years since, and still it sits in ruins.
