Chefet-Amanda

Well i have had a trying day i only had about 5 hours sleep and struggling fairly well, my first degree sunburn on my legs is holding me back so much. Yesterday evening i ate some chocolate but it didnt stay down. In the evening i had some home made icecream i made in my thermomix. My biggest weakness is the evenings after dinner before bed. I havnt drank enough fluids today I recognise where im going wrong its implementing the changes.

My name is Amanda and i got my lapband put in mid 2010 with a starting weight of 95kg and a big issue with self perception of my own body size image. I hated getting dressed in a size 20. I saw my doctor and something needed to be done! So this is my life my story and i hope as you read my blog i help you in some way big or small with your journey. Well as you would have noticed its the second of janurary and i made a promise to myself that this year i would reach my goal weight 65-67kg. Late last year in mid december things for me became a little too much and i began emotionally eating and becoming depressed. Christmas was hard and i ate way too many lollies and too much chocolate, because everyone knows these things still slip through the band. I saw in New Years Eve with my fiancee on a beautiful beach with close friends. A beautiful way to see out the year 2011 and welcome 2012. Unfortunately i managed to get really burnt on my legs and have been unable to get much exercise in for the new year. I have not eaten any chocolate or lollies today!!

In my experience i have lost weight in my boobs too but not like i thought. I worried they would be all saggy n yuck but in all fairness i have probl gone from a 18-20G/H to a 12F so im reasonably lucky i guess

Its amazing the sacrafices we make with our bodies. I would like to firstly say congratulaions on the new birth. Every day is special with little ones. Draw strength from all the precious moments and know that you can get back down to your previous weightloss and take it to the next level Your goal weight. Have you ever heard of a Thermomix. I purchased one late last year and became a consultant. check it out on www.thermomix.com or ask me any questions you might have Amanda
