I bought some scales and what a shock

I thought I was around 84 - 85kg. I stood on some in the shop that came in at 89kg and nearly died. I am pleased to say that today as my start of weighing in I am 86.1kg. That sounds slightly better then 89kg. So Monday mornings will be my weigh ins.

I feel confident i am on track but now the scales will tell the story!!. I am eating way way less then I used to. I am trying to walk twice a day but at least once a day. Infact am off as soon as I have done this entry.

So my first goal is to get under 80kg. I am going to go in 5kg lots. But anything that is a downward movement will be wonderful.

So when I was measuring which I will also continue to do was I getting smaller and just a lot bigger then I realised or was I just pulling htat tape measure tighter and tighter I wonder. Or a bit of both. Who knows but the serious business is underway now. Come winter I want to be buying new jeans and tops for winter in I hope at least a size 14. A baggy size 14. I ultimately want to be a size 10 though. But one size down at a time. And yes size matters to me vain as it may be I do not care it matters. I want my clothes labels to say size 10. I do not want them to say size 18 -16 as they do now.

I can remember some time ago buying something from Ezibuy for a friend in size 16 I was a 10 at the time. And Ezibuy sending me their Sara catalogue for large woman and being mortified. Well guess what I AM THAT LARGE LADY. Right measruements and walk.

Weight: 86.1kg
Calf Muscle: 43.5 cm
Thigh: 64cm
Hips: 104cm (probably pulled too tight but I am sticking with it)
Waist: 88.5cm
Bust: 101cm
Upper arm: 36cm

Am going to go find the last set to compare but I guess now it will be more acurate as the scales will tell a good story. Right walk time.

i don't like scales. according to ours mat and I gained a total of 5kgs between us while visiting our families in nz - sucky motor. I am on a fruit smoothie lunch replacement. Making it myself - not a purchased shake packet. Have to buy more veges to munch on though when i need them.
