Another weight loss journey blog yipdee-feckn-doo

Let me begin by telling you a tale, one that is full of bad decisions, wrong paths and dirty wolves in drag.

Once upon a time there was a girl named Jess. Jess was not the most beautiful maiden in the land but could pick up on a night out before the ugly lights came on.

When Jess was young she was the comedian of the group, always lots of friends but never the object of too manys lust because she was a chubba.

Years later when looking back at photos Jess asked her mother how she could let her be a fat child and her mother replied but you were so happy and so confident we didnt want to make you self conscious... no lets leave that for all the highschool kids.

This story doesnt end here but Jess did take up cross country running and did lose a shit load of weight and no longer relied on the ugly lights to help her pick up.
Engaged then not engaged this part of the story gets complicated... but this is when the weight piled on. Always an emotional eater and never in control, her weight would go up and then thanks to some fad diet or good old Jenny Craig her weight would come down.

Jess eventually met the love of her life (when she was once again skinny) and enjoyed the life of partying being confident and running amok. However something wonderful happened in her life but not for her belly. Jess got pregnant.

Now this was a glorious time for Jess as she realised she could finally eat what she wanted (and yes that included donuts and sausage rolls for breakfast) because no one could say she looked fat because she was 'pregnant'. The day of her sons birth she stepped on the scales at 101kg!!

It took a while and the motivation of her wedding for Jess to lose this weight once again. But after the wedding things decided to go FAT again.

5 weeks ago she weighed in at 81kg!! Lets not forget she was 61 kgs less than a year at her wedding..

So where did things go so wrong and where is that wolf in drag.

Things went wrong the way they always do. She just started eating what she wanted and a lot of it. No exercise and nothing in moderation and a shitload of wine!!

So  5 weeks ago after being told by her husband that her skin felt stretched (YEH WTF!!) Jess started the 12 WBT. Yes Michelle Bridges to the rescue. Who would have thought that the chick off the biggest loser who is quite annoying to watch on tv (sorry mate) could kick start Jess's weight loss journey AGAIN !! This time its different. This time it is all exercise and eating healthy.

So this is my blog of how I am going to get skinny and stay skinny. I have now been on it for 5 weeks and last weigh in I had lost 5.6kg!!! So I am pretty happy with myself. Lets not pretend it has been an easy journey so far but I think it is finally the right one to take. I am not a masterchef by any means and some of the meals I have cooked from her recipes are shall we say nothing like the picture but they taste bloody good and are low in calories.

So I hope to reach my goal of 61kg!!

Weigh in for week 5 tomorrow.

Will let you know how I go.

And they all lived ................
