Hair today..gone tomorrow

Got the remaining hair chopped. Super short. Easier under wig but also
it's a bit more presentable on it's own. Still a little bit conscious
of it but after a moment I forget and got some compliments on it. I'd
go peroxide blonde again but would damage the baby hairs growing back.
Hopefully next year will be back again. If not - hello eBay !

Shake it

So today I am offically overweight. Most folks wouldn't celebrate that but I am. It means I am no longer considered obese ! I was super morbid obese, then went to morbid obese, then obese and today I'm overweight. My BMI is under 30! Whoo whoo!

Not breaking put fireworks just yet but also my friend left a suit in my house when she moved back to UK. I tried it on and it fits! Bit tight but not I had to lay down to get on trousers etc but a bit more fitted than I like or used to

It's a UK size 14 so a USA size 12

That's just amazing to me

I've literally gone half a person from what I wa fitting into (at top preggers was size 32)

And I did have some Halloween candy but I walked 6 miles Sunday and 5 miles Saturday with all that was going on.

So it's my day of freedom today. The day that I can say proudly - me I'm just a regular fatty

Halloween

So Halloween is a time for candy aka sweeties lying around like
laundry. It's everywhere you go and even though a sweet tooth was
never my kryptonite, hard to stop yourself just picking up a handful
here or there

This year at work I dressed up as a vulcan from star trek. Like my
ears? Hah

Also I'm down this week. Even with the snacks at work and I just also
crossed some milestones

I now weigh less than my husband. First time ever. Yeah! Also I'm
under two pounds away from moving from obeseville to overweight.
That's just amazing

I also found out that I can't get away with bigger trousers anymore
even with a long top. I nearly ended up twice this week with the
trousers literally around my ankles. So putting them to give away
pile. At this point will be going to work in a tracksuit or covering
myself with toilet paper.

Also at work I passed my quota for first quarter. Kinda of a big deal
so yeah!

At work ;)

6 months on

6 months. 112 pounds down and now in size 16. I'm also registered for
a 5k race. I'm going to try and run but can walk if need be.

Milestones and goals

So back working out yeah! Also I started couch to 5k program and I had
tried once before and nearly died trying to do even the 90 sec jog
intervals. (starts you at jog 60 sec and walk a min and half and
repeat). This time though I got all way through! Guess having 110 less
pounds on me makes it bloody easier. Insert a duh here ;)

Also my sister is coming over to see us over holidays and is signing
up for a race so challanged me to. So signing myself and hubby up for
the 5k which is about 3 and half miles. I'm going to see if I can
train myself to run it.

That's nearly 10 weeks training so should be a good goal. Let's see if
I like this running thing , the boobs have always been a hinderence.
And anyone who thinks otherwise isn't over a D cup so they have no
clue. Try eee cup and then tell me how that run was ;)

So here's more of the head gear. Having fun with it. My real hair got
so bad might have to go pixie cut until it starts to grow back

On weight side I'm losing as I'm moving so that's good. Sleep still a
dream but that's baby not my sleep apnea I'm sure. Although hubby did
let me sleep till 1230 Sunday. That was magic!

Movin and grovin folks

Travelling

Travelling is fun with the diet restrictions. Thankfully we have kids
so getting through security wasn't a hassle as they assumed the
protein was the toddlers.

Eating at my mother in laws was challanging. I had protein shipped
there so easy to eat tubes but when everyone was having pizza I was
digging in fridge for some turkey or ham to eat. That and they love
desserts and she's a great cook. So ate the beef and pork for dinner
two nights and said no to the mashed potatoes and the cream puffs
after dinner. It was a lovely trip though and great for the kids to
see their grandparents. We did do a nice 2 half mile walk and ran
around park. The girls on road have started a weight loss group so
trying to lose what I can before we weigh in before thanksgiving.
