It's been 5 months since my last blog...

I can't believe how fast time flies.  It's been 5 months since my last blog.  I thought I should write something at least!

On Wednesday, I saw Dr Winnett for the first time since April.  I didn't want to get on the scales (I was really worried that I'd gone into the 220's) but I am 196.4kg.  I've actually lost 16kg (or thereabouts) since I saw him last.  I was pleasantly surprised.  I spoke to him about the fact that a month ago I had been in Hospital for 12 days with Cellulitus on my 'fatty apron' (I HATE that expression) and he said to me that in 30kg time, he'll refer me to have a tummy tuck so that the problems that I am having with my 'fatty apron' are just a bad memory.  Is that something to motivate me or what?  I am so excited and motivated by the prospect of a tummy tuck.  I will lose around 15kg - 20kg just by having it removed.  It is so heavy and does weigh me down a lot.

My cruise is all booked :) I can't wait.  We are not flying to Sydney (where it departs) but we are going to drive.  Airfares alone for all of us would be around $1200 but there is no way I'd be getting on a plane at this weight.  We're off in March so I have time to lose some weight before then.

Today I am going to book some PT sessions at the gym and start getting back into that once the Kids go back to School.  I am feeling excited about that.  It will be good to get back into the swing of things.

I'll write more in the coming days.  Thank you for your support xo
