Something to celebrate!!

The scales were not nice to me this week with another gain of 500g. This time I didn't deserve it!! I know it was down to all the exercise last week (including a 3hr tramp up a mountain) but still doesn't look nice on my records. I'm not going to focus on the gain but on the huge achievements I have gained this last year.

As you can see from my front page I am celebrating one whole year on Weight Watchers. This time last year I was FAT!!! lol and now I consider myself slim ... that's gotta be something to celebrate!!

Here are some of the changes I have noticed ...

1. I am no longer a hermit hiding inside my hole choosing now to go out and socialise rather that sit at home where no one can see me.

2. When I go out I walk with my shoulders back and posture straight ... not because I want to change my posture but because I am proud of who I am and proud of my body!! 1yr ago I had such bad posture purely because I was continually trying to hide.

3. I enjoy shopping and dressing up now. 1 year ago it was my pet hate ... I HATED SHOPPING ~ I could never find clothes that fitted and looked nice on.

4. I can easily sit cross legged on the ground and crossing my legs while sitting is no problem either. 1yr ago I couldn't cross my legs unless I used my arms to hold them together... just too much fat between them thighs! :)

5. This Saturday for my birthday I am going Gliding. Yay cant wait!! 1 yr ago I wouldn't have even suggested such a thing, knowing I wouldn't fit in the seat of the plane.

6. I no longer worry what people are thinking of me. If they don't like me that's their problem and nothing I can do will change that. 1 yr ago I thought EVERYONE hated me unless I did something to impress them.

7. I now LOVE SUMMER!! An excuse to show off my new body, new tan and new clothes. 1 yr ago summer was the worst season of the year because I couldn't hide behind my baggy jerseys.

These are just a few ways my life and attitudes have changed. There are far more ways than I could ever put on here but I guess this gives you the picture that I love what is happening ... love feeling in control again ... love my body ... and can't wait to get to goal!!

Yay me!!!
