The promised ramble.

How impressive where you guys with your swift and encouraging comments? I am suitably impressed. I am super, super, super duper impressed with those who left multiples - why thank you, thank you very much!!!!! And the winner goes to Crystal - last one in but, by far, pretty darn impressive.

And as promised - let the random ramblings begin.

Now, just before Christmas 2008 I started a weight reduction diet. Lord only knows I needed to shift a fair few Kilo's.

Do you remember how I put up that 'way too embarrassing' photo of me - the one of me in that revolting red top? Well it sure was a motivator.

I lost 16 kilo's.

Thank you, thank you very much.

So, the update you ask?

Here is an ionsightful picture that might just give you a little hint...


Moderation - that's the key to success. Ladies and gentleman. Let me re-phrase that - Ladies and ladies I give you - THE healthy way to consume chocolate?

Alright, so I have been a bit naughty lately.

16 - 3 = 13.

That's still good, right?

Let's stay positive shall we?

Fruit anybody?

This was no help at all -

It took me close on 5 days to recover from pumping the thing up! You reward yourself for those sorts of challenges. Am I right or am I right?

Monday! I'm starting again on Monday.

C'mon, does it really matter which Monday?

Please, give me a break!


I have more ramblings. But it is late and I want to go to bed.

I'll post this and then come back tomorrow to ramble a little more.

See ya then.

Congratulation, I think trying to take off pounds is very hard, so my hat is off to you. Giving up the things that put pounds on is no fun, I call these foods "the evil foods". Have a great weekend.

13 is impressive - congratulations and good luck with staying closer to healthy choices. I need to get back on the treadmill this week. Maybe the 4 days in a row of teaching that I have planned will keep me away from food, which is my weakness! Looking forward to the next rambling!

My gym ball is purple. Hahahahaha!I cannot beging to tell you how much I need to lose. I took myself off one lot of the pills which make you gain copious weight. Just what I need. Will see how I go.

Congrats on the 13 kilo loss, I'm 'supposed' to be on a diet too but the Coke keeps calling my name!
I've cut back but as you say everything in moderation right? I really don't think it includes sugar laden fizzy drink but hey what's a girl to do.
