Progress Report Week 10

I ROCK!!

I was hopeful when I stepped on the scales this morning, but ... you know what its like, you think you will have a loss but you are terrified that something bad happened over night and instead you gained 2kgs, anyway I stepped on the scales and shut my eyes just in case, when I finally peeked there it was...

I lost 1.2kg this week yipee!!!

So that blew away my horrid little Christmas/NYE gain and put me firmly in a good place to achieve my January goals. YAY ME!

Previous Weight - 83.2kg
Lost 1.2kg
Current Weight - 82kg

Today I am happy. I started tracking again last week, which I think has made the biggest difference to the previous weeks.

I did have a few treats, in particular I went to High Tea at the Hyatt Hotel in Canberra - lush, I am looking for another excuse to do this as it was so beautiful, I will post about it when I get around to downloading the photos from my camera.

We have also had fresh apricots from my FIL's tree. They go bad really quickly in the heat so I stewed them and we have been eating them for dessert each night, I pour a tiny amount of cream on them about the size of a ten cent piece, swish them around so the cream touches each piece then I slowly eat them, I only have about two apricots all up, but I make sure they take about fifteen minutes to eat so that I can savour them - so good.

And there's been more cooking with the my little one. This time it was choc chip cookies, and man were they good. I'll post more on this later too cos I took photos (my kids think its hilarious that I take photos of most of the food we cook) and they came out all round and chocolaty, and chippy, and just like the pictures in the book. I was so proud. Usually my cookies taste great, but they never look like the ones in the book lol.

All things told, week 10 has been a pretty good week here, and I'm looking forward to Week 11
