Well I didn't get to post last week as I was away for Easter. It was always going to be a tricky time!!
I weighed myself last Monday and was 132.6kg - 25kg down!!! I was extremely happy, but was slightly concerned for the Easter break - I set myself a goal of no chocolate which I did break, but only had a few small easter eggs and that was it. Had a few dinners out, and some not so healthy meals, but I tried not to be too bad. No exercise bike either which was not good, but I did get to go on a few short walks. I weighed myself this morning and I was still exactly 132.6kg, so I'm pleased that I didn't put anything back on. I need to get back focus from tomorrow and make sure I try and bike every day and get back into my healthy eating habits.
My next goal is to break 120kg. As I've lost my 15% before June 30, I've ensured that I don't have to fork out any money - with a bit of luck I'll make some if my mates both dont also lose the 15%, but for their sakes I hope they make it.
I have until July 28 until I go to canada for a couple of weeks for the wedding. Thats 13 weeks away. If I stick to a modest 1kg a week, I'll get to 120kg by then, which would really be great, so its good motivation.
I'm overweight and I have been for way too long. This is my journey to becoming healthy again.

10 weeks down, and another 1.1 kg lost last week. I'm now down to 139.3. Happy with that since I only went on the bike 3 times, and had a couple of less than healthy meals. Going to really try and get a good number for next week.

Well I was pretty nervous getting on the scales this morning. I'd only used the exercise bike last Monday, and then last week was so busy and I was so tired I didn't get to go on it again. I had 4 days at the Clipsal 500, but I was good and brought my lunch with me on the Thursday and Friday. But it seems I was worried for nothing - This mornings weight was 140.4kg, so another 1.2kg down, which I'm pretty damn happy with since the exercise was fairly lacking (although i did do some walking around the track). I'll be back on the bike tonight and try to ensure I do it every night so that next weigh in I can put a big dent into the 130's. Not far to go until my initial goal of 133kg which means I'll have succeeded in my bet with my 2 mates, and won't have to fork out $1000... hopefully that's only a few weeks away!

Well, I lost another 1.6 kg this week, bringing me down to 141.6kg in total. I'm happy with that, but cautious because today is a public holiday, so I had a pretty long sleep in, and instead of weighing myself at about 7am I weighed myself around 1:30pm.. so I'm optimistic, but hopefully the time difference hasn't swayed things a little - I guess I'll find out when I weigh in next monday! I'm very happy with this weeks results, as I did have 2 days with no exercise, but I played tennis yesterday which was good fun - I used to love playing so I really want to get back into it. I'm having issues with my feet at the moment, so they were really sore after. Might have to see a Podiatrist. I need to be very good this week. A big car race is being run here, and I'll be going all 4 days, thurs, fri, sat and sun. Its very easy to eat bad and drink a lot of beer so I have the be very careful. I'm going to try and pack a nice roll to take so hopefully I can keep away from the bad food, and I'll need to make sure I'm on the bike every night. I'm hoping that next weigh in I can get into the 130's....
Now that I've lost 16 kg, I have 8 to go until I reach my first goal - the bet with my 2 mates. Neither of them have reached their goal yet, and are starting to struggle a little, so I've just got to keep going. Fingers crossed!
