So, new diary…same old me. I’m finally at a point in my life I can concentrate on me again rather than solely 2 young boys. My baby is 3 now and doesn’t completely rely on me which is freeing. I love my mini humans more than life but have ignored myself way too much. I have a new skin care regime and eating plan and working out again.

I’m in week 2 of my weight loss, I’ve tried for months to do it the normal way but my weight won’t budge so i’m doing it the only way I know how. I ordered Optifast and am sticking to it very strictly, my calorie intake is very low, the most I’ve had in 2 weeks is 950. I can feel clothes starting to fit slightly better already. I manage to go to the gym 3 days a week and try do 1 hike every weekend but that is posing difficult as I want to spend my weekends with my boys. I need to keep reminding myself that 2 hours away isn’t going to hurt them and I need to look after myself as well as them. A fitter healthier mum will be better as we can play sports outside and have more fun.

Mentally i’m doing okay, i’m on my medication. I have been since having postpartum depression. I haven’t kicked that yet 3 years on. My weight doesn’t help. I put on 20kgs since being pregnant with my first. I don’t expect to lose all of that as I know getting older it’ harder to lose weight.

So this is me and my journey again. I’m glad I found another place to write down my daily or weekly working.

Starting weight 77.4kg - goal weight 60kg

Let’s Go!
