Have been doing Personal Training for about 6 weeks now.. I have lost almost 5kgs and 23.5cm.. I am thrilled to bits.. Can't use weight loss as a gauge as I am building muscle.. And I can actually feel muscles I never knew I had!
I feel the fittest I have been in... EVER.. I feel great.. I have soooo much energy.. We have had some shockingly hot days and I have still got out there and exercised.. I have learnt to love exercise and I feel bad if I don't do it..
Really looking forward to get back to work in a few weeks.. Will be interesting to see what comments I will get..
A few ppl have commented - particularly on my face, it has thinned out a lot apparently.. I can notice it now.. even in my body.. my clothes are getting loose.. I don't have many clothes left.. I cleared out my cupboard so only have the bare essentials left.. I only kept one skirt from when I was at my heaviest so that I can see how far I have come.. Can't wait to walk into a shop and pick up a 14 off the rack and know that it will fit.. Bring it on..
My attitude is sooo much more positive now.. Trivial stuff no longer bothers me.. I am joking a lot more, which I love.. because that is more of the real me that has been hidden under the fat... I feel like I have also relieved pressure by removing myself from dating websites and the dating scene in general.. I want to feel fantastic about myself before I contemplate dating so that I have no worries at all about my looks.. I am feeling more comfortable now but still not nearly 100%..
I think my daughter is loving the new me even tho she probably won't admit it.. particularly when I do a spontaneous 5km walk when she is with me..lol... It's fantastic for her because she is fast appraoching puberty and has been gaining weight - yes, just like Mum!.. I know I am a more positive role model in all aspects.. An indication of my energy levels - Australia Day - woke up at 5am, went to see Hot Air Balloons... Pool Party during the day.... Concert at night... I would never have had this energy in the past.. I would have been lucky to get to one of the events..
Looking forward to Training today.. WOO HOO...
