Well after dreading tonight, it hasn't actually been so bad. I thought after my indulgent weekend that I wouldn't stand a chance tonight. I had a wedding and a 30th birthday this past weekend, and although I saved points, I didn't quite manage the total that I used. Anyway after arriving at the meeting, closing my eyes, holding my breath and stepping on the scales. I found out that I hadn't lost, but most importantly I didn't gain! I am finally starting to do this for me. I am still not confident, and have moments where I would just love to shrink into the background. But i am getting there. I just need to keep on heading in the direction I'm pointed, because I am starting to get the hang of it. I know it won't be plain sailing, but I know I have weathered far worse storms. Ok....enough with the analogues! I did ok and i am proud of me!!
I have already discovered that I am rubbish at making time for myself, and I guess my absence from here has demonstrated that!! So far so good with Weight watchers. I have managed to loose 6.2kg. Everyone uses pounds and stone over here (UK) and I find it so hard. I want to be motivated and for me kilograms work. I would have liked to have lost more, but I have been consistently loosing so I think that I should be happy with that, it keeps me wanting to loose. I am also desperately trying to build more activity into my life. I have rejoined my belly dancing class and I am trying to go swimming at least 2 -3 times a week. It isn't as easy as I had hoped, but I am getting there. It was the tortoise that won the race in the end after all!
I also have less that a week now until I go to Morocco. It is getting easier to put myself first and this trip demonstrates that. I can't wait as I am going with one of my best friends. Fingers crossed it is everything she and I hope it will be. We are both wondering spirits and love to travel so it should be a lot of fun. I just want to find out my worth in Camels! It is a long running joke with my Mum and I want to find out if I am worth more than her!! I guess my next blog may be from Morocco and may involve camels!
