On Track So Far

How are you going with your New Year's Resolutions so far?

The dog and I have been running every other day, slowly building up the actual time running as compared to walking. Running is quite addictive and I don't feel so lethargic any more. I also like that it's free.

I'm 1/3 way through my weight loss goal with 3.3 kg down so far. Zoe (pictured) has lost 0.3 kg this week which has pleased Voyt as he thinks I have made her fat. I can't recommend Weight Watchers (dog is not on it) highly enough. It's good to be accountable to someone weekly.

Good bye "healthy" noodles

I have been shocked to learn how fattening foods previously enjoyed actually are, like "low-fat" noodles from Red Rock.


My body is also in shock and tired from the extra physical activity so I'm taking it easy today and working on a new fabric design. Have a great weekend!

Good on you Thea for staying on track....I've been procrastinating about making some lifestyle changes and losing weight but after reading your blog I've decided enough is enough.
What I am doing on my own is not shifting the weight, and I believe too, that being accountable to someone would be far more beneficial.
I am going to sign up for Michelle Bridges' "12 week body transformation program" and then I think I'll go to WW to follow on and support the kick start.
Thanks for the post and I look forward to continuing following your weight loss/getting fit journey.
Happy New Year
Katrina

I was the same Katrina. Always procrastinating or thinking that I could do it on my own. Well, another 2 years passed and I was just getting bigger and not knowing what to eat and using work as an excuse not to exercise.

It really takes less than an hour for me to get to and from park and do what physical activity I need to do in the morning. I feel so much better and happier already and so does dog. So yes, get support!
