IT IS A CHALLNAGE,BUT I CAN DO IT I KNOW I CAN

I am on track it is a slow challange, but for the last three weeks, I have lost .2 each week it all adds up, and to do it little by little even though it is very challangening it feels GOOD...and to have support from so many wonderful friends, it keeps you going..I know some days I get down but I am up again dont stay down for long.

I am off to hospital om the 9th september for shoulder sugery. only over night please God but to be out of pain will be so good it is a three month to get over it so that also will be a challange but I am good at challnagers lol somt time:)

A BEAUTIFUL DAY HERE TODAY it is like spring. it is supposed to get to 26 on the weekend. which will be so good to get out and enjoy doing gardening and going walking.and taking photos..

well till later I will go and get my letter writing in order

Trying to Get back on track again..

It has been some time since I have written up how I am going with my weight watches, but I am hoping to go to the meeting this Thursday, I have been losing weight, last fortnight I lost.4 but I am being challenged by my son now and daughter if I lost 10kegs in 13 weeks s Shannon will give me $40 and Chloe a new pair of shoes to wear to the family reunion in October back at Young...well I can not fall on that now can I ?? so I have tyred to get back into walking and am counting my points, ww is the best way to go when losing weight great support and very friendly people..and I must say I have made some wonderful friends.

Even though I have had the last three days feeling flat I did get my bed room clean today, and that has made me a bit better...but despite my down feeling I am still just taking one day at a time and hoping tomorrow might be a brighter day...I have to learn to be gentle with my self and just do what I can on days like this...(unless you suffer with depression you have no idea what it feels like to be in a dark hole!)

I am trying to start up my own photo shot as doing photos of flowers and people etc to do on cards to sell I do love taking photos, but my failing is I can spend all day on the computer and get nothing Else done, but if I am doing what I like it is good I suppose...

The grocery shopping has to be done today, and bills payed, so I guess sitting here isn't going to get that done, thank God for DAVID he will take me up town and help with the shopping, I am very blessed with a wonderful husband, and three beautiful children..Shannon is turning 19 on Friday so we will take him out for lunch he wants to go to the pub, where they give a beautiful meal..

Chloe is coming home this Thursday so we are happy about that it is always wonderful to see her, it keeps my mind busy when I have family home..

Well on that note I hope all have a lovely week and I will write again soon

God bless to all

Had a good loss this week yah

IT is starting to pay off again I lost 1.8 this week and I feel good, ah it pays off when you count the points and walk, even though I can not walk much with my bad knee, I am trying.that is the main thing.

The weather has been beautiful the last few days like spring weather good to get the cloths dry, and also do house work.

It IS ONLY 6 weeks till the cruise and I am so looking forward to it..IT will be so good to get away for 10 days ah and just be waited on and not have to cook or do a thing..

so I struggle on and the positive attuide helps and all the wonderful friends that are helping me along the way
Hope all are having a good week.

I did put on .2 but that is OK I didn't walk,. I was lazy and this week I am going to walk and walk and walk and drink lots of soup the points 0 soup,and count my points. no matter what!!! ah that is where I go wrong when I don't count my points i fall big time. the points work...
