C25K - Check in

So its been a while since i checked in.. for various reasons.. i am still plodding through week 4 in the running.. i am going to make an effort to get through it by the end of this week.. i have been disheartened by the lack of weight loss and also the lack of a BFP so i have let things slide a bit.. i have been reasonably good on my food choices though.. so i suppose thats a good thing!

anyhow.. this morning i weighed 77.8kg and measured B - 94, W - 99.5 and T - 109cm...

i cant remember how that compares to my lest check in!

until next time

falling apart.. again..

Looks like we are in for another visit from george this month. My world feels like its crashing down around me..

I had a terrible day in the office yesterday - to go with the terrible week.. i was driving home and i thought to myself... wouldnt it be nice if i went home, took a hpt and saw the two lines i want to see sooooo much in the whole world!

so i came home, took the hpt and saw a big fat nought! well i saw one line but that means nothing.. for some reason this month it officially felt a lot worse than all the other months.. perhaps because its been 6 months wince we started trying now?

i told my beau and then i went and layed in bed and had a cry.. my beau came in... i could see that he too had tears in his eyes... why cant i give him the one thing he wants so much?

one of my closest friends is pregnant - i'm so pleased for her and im especially happy that her baby is healthy and safe.. but im so jealous.. i dont want to be.. but i am... i am trying very hard not to be.. but i dont know how to control the jealousy.. *sigh*

today she showed me some designs for how she wants to decorate they nursery... im sure she has no idea how that made me feel... but i did the right thing and commented appropriately..

still.. some days i wish i was a hermit... over the past few months i've been getting my life back on track - a new track to before - but still on track.. yet it seems somehow i've fallen off again!

*sigh*

today i feel sad...

sad that i can't give my beau the baby he so much wants.. he has started asking me more and more if i think we will ever have more kids to add to our family.. yesterday i told him that i was sure we would when the time was right... you know im sick of people telling me that (i mean i know its the truth but it still is the last thing i want to hear) yet i found myself saying that to him...

*sigh*

a word on adoption...

Adopting is not currently something we are dealing with, but we have discussed it and it may be on the cards. I have looked into it and I understand that it is a long and complex process. I came across this article yesterday and it scares me but it is also the sad truth. I thought I would share for those who are interested – a pity you cant leave a comment!

C25K - Check in

So yesterday I ran again - first time since saturday! for no other reason but being busy.. we have started taking the pups to training on monday nights so that leaves little time for running..

Anyway, I started week 4 yesterday.. i thought I would have a heartattack but i didnt.. week four included the longest run so far at 5 mins and i had to do that twice.. i survived.. and now am fearful of next weeks 20 minute run! ha!

I also seem to have slowed down in my weight loss.. and while that is not part of my plan, i hope that it is because muscle is developing.. my calves are looking a bit more defined these days.. so thats what im hoping for!

so my measurements..

77.4kg (BMI - 29.1)

B - 94.5cm

W - 102.5cm

T - 111cm

Nothing much else to report but i did take this photo of my boys - i like it so i thought i would share!

C25K - Check in

Time for a check in...

i weighed in this afternoon at 77.9kg

measurements were:

B- 95.5, W-103 and T-115.5cm

Good news - today i fit into my favourite jeans - size 12! woo! they were comfy but on the snug side.. my intention is to fit into them just comfy - no snugness..

my goal was to lose 0.5kg a month.. so far i am on track... i have 2 more days to meet my 77.7 goal for January..

wish me luck.. i am sitting here doing my check in wearing my running gear.. but waiting for the breeze to come in - currently its around 40 degrees outside.. too hot to run just yet.. perhaps in an hour..

i have been quiet good and am due to run my final run for week 3...

see you next time..

go me...

today i did a little jig.. yes a real jig... not a good one but a jig none the less.. why? because i weighed in (even though i said i wasn't going to be ruled by the scales) and i have lost 1.6 kg so far this month.. well on track with my goal of loosing 0.5 kg a week..

i am awesome!
