My older godsons birthday.

It was my godson, Camerons', 3rd birthday on Wednesday, and so today I joined his mum and dad and their immediate family for a bbq! :)





He was ssoooo cute, it's his first birthday that he has really KNOWN it was "his birday"





"My birday cake" he said!! And he served it..
Uncle Andrew thought it would be fun to get Cam to do wheelies in his "Toot Toot Chugga Chugga, Big Red Car" (And yes, the car is a green colour.... and Cam DOES know his colours, but for some reason...he is ADAMANT that this is a "Big Red Car" lol









He was happy... lol

















A happy family shot.


Brett, Kate and Cameron : )

My night out.

Had a REALLY good night, it was great to see my friends after so long, I really miss them : (
Kriso has been travelling around Australia, and so I REALLY don't see her often at all.
Anyway, I will be going to see her all dressed up,at her mums house next week, for her big sisters wedding.
Can't wait. She is such a beautiful soul. I love her to bits. Miss you Kriso.
MWAH!
I try to see Loz more often, but she is always busy. At least she is in Sydney tho!! lol
My darling friend Kriso.

My gorgeous friend little Loz



Both the girls together. Awwww.
They're so purty. : )

Broke the 91kg barrier. Now I just have to keep it off!!

Am going out tonight with some girlfriends that I havent seen for around a year.



Hmmm.. wonder if they will notice the weight loss!! Fingers crossed.



Did my hair in my "old style" today, the way I used to do it when it was long!!



It was alot easier twisting the strands when they are only 2 inches!!! hehehe

Weigh In Saturday : )

Well.
Surprised today. I lost .4kg, even tho I am TTOM.
GOOD surprise!! lol
No Count seems to be doing the trick!! Even tho last week I ate so much (I did stick to ONLY No Count foods tho...) I STILL LOST!!!
Might have to stick with No Count for another week, and see if it pays off in the long run!!
Anyway, had another nice compliment today. My best friend told me that I was looking alot like my sister Lauren now.
For those who know her, they will know it is an AWESOME compliment, for those who don't, I will find a pic of my sis and post it. You will then understand my being so chuffed! lol

My husband is still really sick, which is bringing me down, and is also leaving us both housebound, as I am too nervous/ embaressed to go outside by myself (stigma of a fat person, and the awful comments and ridicule I have been subjected too...) and so I have not been exercising.
Hopefully my best friend Kath and I will be able to change that tho, and walk together.
Kath is also doing WW, and when we both reach goal, we can enter the slimmer of the year "friends" category!!!!

My Wedding!!



My husband!!

My bestest friend in the whole world!

My first mid week!! - Not a happy one : (

well, ok... so its kinda the end of the week almost.. but it has been one HECK of a week.
So. My husbands name is Glen. He has Chrones disease and Colitis. Both are destructive bowel diseases, which would probably eventually lead to him having several operations, which remove chunks of the bowel, which are the most diseased and the most "unuseful", ie unusable!!
Eventually leaving no small or large intestine, and a lovely bag on the outside.
Sooo... about 5 yrs ago we hear about this revolutionary doctor, who is undertaking great new research on gastro intestinal diseases, and who could "technically" "cure" these diseases...
Glen of course started seeing Dr Borody, and has had fantastic results, (albeit VERY expensive ones, which have left us with NO money or savings... but all worth it in the long run if it worked) we have been leading a "normal" life, which was previously not one of our relationship strong points, as Glen would often lose control of his bowel motions and we would have to rush home, leading to less and less outings...
Anyway, the short story is that the eventual outcome was a "procedure" that was to take place over 2 weeks, which would cure the diseases...
So here we are, five yrs later at the "procedure"...
with an 85% chance of success, costing us $3000 out of pocket in one hit, and alot of stress and heartache if it doesnt work...
Glen is on the last 2 days of the procedure today.
He has been VERY VERY ill... back to unable to go anywhere, and taking a change of clothing to his daily hospital visits for his daily rectal exam, and internal exam, and having things STUFFED into his body, very painfully from the anus EVERY DAY for the last 12 days....
This morning he started bleeding... BADLY bleeding....
I am taking tomorrow off to stay with him, and I am NOT optomistic of the results... and am feeling like I am going to have a nervous breakdown.
We have put off having children for the last 5 yrs, due to the fact that the drugs he was on rendered him sterile....
and it may have all been for nothing...
All that time and money... and we could be looking at the same thing we were looking at five yrs ago...
I tell you...
I am feeling VERY down, and it is becoming glaringly obvious that this could have been for nothing.

Weigh In Saturday : )

oh oh.
I put on....
.8kg.
Which puts me at 91.8kg... damn...
I am starting No Count this week... just to try it and see how i go...
I am not sure if I am PMS or not... that sounds dumb, but I am about 2-3 days before I am due, and I am not sure WHEN it is exactly that you retain weight that shows on the scales...
Anyhow, it doesnt matter, cos I was DREADFUL this week... so back on the band wagon today, I am determined to get into the 80s this month... : )
I sent my blog to my good friend Kallyla this month, and forgot I had posted pics of my boobies in my new 16DD push up bra (YAY to me for getting to this size!!)
And she opened in front of her hubby (Sorry Francisco!!!!!)
anyhoo... that post is now deleted for health and safety reasons!!! (and cos I was MORTIFIED when I found out... lmao)
Soooo... the other coment that was made was, where are the photos of friends and family?? where are the stories about your family and life??? (It is a BLOG after all!!!)
SOOOO for the benefit of all others, I will be contributing a mid week entry from now on, not just a weigh in entry, with some photos of my husband, my wedding, my friends, my dogs.... etc etc etc...
Look out for the mid week post peoples!!!
It will rock your world!!
(ok, so maybe not ROCK... it might sway it a little tho....)

And fitting into EVERY . LAST . SIXTEEN . IN . EVERY . LAST . SHOP.
