New blog I have realised that i am struggling to get motivated to post in this blog. so I have created a new one. Maybe the fact that this one will be a blog about my weightloss as well as my scrapbooking hobby will motivate me to post more. ive chosen to move away from Blogger as its easier at this place to post up my layouts.

I chose "Milkshake" as my URL and login name cos Im a breastfeeding mum and proud of it!!! :D  ¶ 12:52 PM 1 comments

  Love the country lifestyle I know this blog is sposed to be about my weightloss but I just wanted to mention how much I love Moranbah so far! This little mining town is soooo under-rated. I heard so many bad comments from ppl when I said I was moving out here but I think its great. Its so peaceful. The people are really friendly. The library has a better space for kids than the library in Mackay does. I certainly dont miss the humidity. Plus I love how quiet it is.

I must admit though. Ive wanted to walk the federation walkpath since I got here but still havent gotten off my butt and done it. My two sisters are coming to town overnight on Wednesday night so I will walk it with them on Thursday morning.

I cooked again yesterday. Its so hard to eat good when Im making yummies for DH. I made "Werthers and Cadbury Bikkies". One of my DHs fav foods I bake. I just make up a normal basic biscuit mix but I use half normal sugar and half brown sugar. Then before I roll the mixture into balls I add 1 family block of cadbury milk chocolate (crushed) and a 135g packet of Werthers Chewy Toffees (chopped). It is devine. Gotta love both those brands :) But definitely not good points-wise.

Ive spent the last couple of days trying to do the "No Count" plan but I find it way too difficult. I need the flexibility in my eating. So Im going back to counting. I forgot to post yesterday's tracking so Ill start with todays now:


TRACKING:
Incidental exercise - 1 hour housework
Planned exercise - none

Food:
Breaky: lg banana (2p), 2 slices toast (3p) = 5p
Morning Tea: 2 home-made "Werthers and Cadbury Bikkies" (oooops) = 3p
Lunch: egg and lettuce sandwiche with mayo = 6p
Afternoon Tea: 10 rice crackers with salsa = 1p
Dinner: 1 sausage (7p), 1 potato (1p), point-free veges (0p) = 8p
Dessert: TBA  ¶ 9:51 AM 2 comments

  Doin' the Happy Dance ... I went to WW while in Mackay yesterday because I couldnt wait until next Tuesday - I weighed in at 69.2kgs!! This means that I lost 1.5kgs over Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay!!! 1.2kgs left till I reach goal.

So now Im back to counting my points and tracking what I eat. I was going to do the No Count plan but I am finding that I really need the flexibility.

And I finally have the Net at home so I can get back to posting everyday. If I dont I will lose track again. So I am looking forward to getting back to reading everyone's blogs. I have really missed the communication and support Ive recieved and hopefully given over the last 5 months I have been blogging.

Have a great weekend everyone!  ¶ 11:54 AM 7 comments

  Happy New Year!! sorry about not posting but i have been sooooo busy plus I have no internet at the new place in Moranbah. Im at the library using their net at the moment.

Firstly, I didnt get to my WW goal weight but I am a 60s girl now!! I cant remember what weight I was at my last WW weighin before christmas but I think I was 70.4kgs. This morning I weighed myself and I was 68.8kgs. I am DEFINITELY thinking that my scales broke on the way from Mackay to Moranbah. This is the first time I have weighed myself since I moved here.

The WW meetings are on Tuesdays here - and I will be busy next Tuesday so it looks like itll be another 2 weeks before I get a chance to go get myself weighed officially! If my home scales are right though it looks like I may actually be at goal by then! They may be right because of all the packing boxes and moving I did. I have no idea.

Moranbah is fantastic. I am loving how quiet it is here - and everyone is so friendly! The scrapping store here is great. They stock all the brands I love. And have a big pile of Basic Grey papers (my fav).

I hope everyone is doing well. I will try to get back here to post again late this week. Its Bee's 1 year birthday party this weekend so Im back into Mackay for a few days so we can celebrate with friends and family. Busy busy busy! But hopefully htings will start to settle down once I am back out here on Wednesday.  ¶ 2:09 PM 3 comments
