Healthy Weight loss while TTC

Sorry for missing you out before NzVeggie... don't know how I managed that doh! I hope you are still okay  in the storm.

Great work misssara  Sounds very busy at your place. My boys are turning 4 and 3 next week and I haven't got presents yet. One is on Easter Thursday and the other on Easter Monday. We will have an extended family dinner for them on Easter Sunday. It will be a high voltage weekend, that's for sure.

110.5 this morning. I will update properly when miss 20months isnt climbing over me

Well I survived the storm. However been having a bad couple of eating days and no exercise because of storm (everything closed and can't go running). Will be happy to maintain my weight this week! We shall see what tomorrow brings.
You other ladies are doing so well! You hit that magical 20kg mark HT and you just keep on going?? Have you had to buy a whole new wardrobe of clothes yet?

I feel you on the fluid retention HT, sometimes I have had upwards of 2kg from O until just after AF. This month it seems ok, I credit it to the acupuncture and probably metformin adjusting my hormones slightly?

That's good you're seeing the change in your clothes! New leggings and tanks etc are a good start in the mean time until you can shop :)

I'm wearing jeans today that 5 weeks I couldn't even get up my thighs properly, yet alone do up, so thats good. I'm lucky that my frame means a kilo or so is usually a pant size, so not much longer and hopefully most of my jeans etc will fit well again. Even my DH is impressed how quickly it is coming off and how well I'm doing.

Aiming to head to RPM tomorrow morning.

I hear you girls on the increase in weight around AF. I get a good kilo that comes out of nowhere and then fades just as quickly… but I do also eat more in the lead up to AF which sometimes means it ends up ebing more than just a kilo

So good to hear that you have noticed a massive difference in your size (not just weight). A pity that more clothes aren't on the agenda just yet but I'm sure when you do get more it will feel fantastic!

The storm was a bit of whitewash after all the hype (where I live anyway). Basically there was a LOT of rain and not much else. So lots of surface flooding but this is the wet tropics so the land is kind of used to it. The rivers etc have already gone down heaps. We live on the edge of a lake and I think it's gone up around 2-3m….. maybe even more. It's hard to tell because I can't remember exactly where the water level was as it all looks so different now. So impressive for 24 hours of rain!!! And it's a big lake so that's a lot of water!

Oh and my weigh in was 74.6 so thats 100g loss…. I'l take it seeing as I haven't exercised for 5 days and ate more than I should have on about 3 of those days! Back into today though… went to my circuit training class!!!

Well shot down 800 grams this morning. I hope this is not a period of big dips and highs. Normally I'm pretty consistent so I'm trying to figure out why I'm having these swings.

After an Easter of no bike and eggs I am dreading get back on the scales. It is the first time I have let myself eat over my calories for three or four days straight since Christmas. Hmmm. I hope you have had Happy Easter's, look forward to catching up soon.

I weighed in…. Maintained my weight. Which considering it's easter I'm ok with but it's the second week in a row!
On the plus. I started an 8 week healthy lifestyle challenge today. Had a personal training session and know somoene in real life knows of my goal to lose 4.8kg!!! So that will make it even easier.
