Procrastinating

Right now what I should be doing is doing all my readings for my assignment that's due tomorrow. But I am a major procrastinator and am sure to be furiously typing at my laptop at 3am tomorrow morning. I never seem to learn.

Things have been going well on my weight-loss journey. A week after my first post where I announced my total weight-loss of 2.4kgs, I gained .6kgs at my weigh-in. After much soul-searching and confusion (really only 2 minutes) I realised it was the beginning of my cycle (sorry men). It made me feel a lot better and much less disheartened. Especially since the week after I lost a whopping 2.8kgs. A round of applause, please! Thank you...

Last Saturday I jumped on the scales with a .2kg loss, which I was okay with. After such a giant loss, I couldn't have really expected to lose a large amount.

Which brings me up to yesterday's weigh-in. Guess what!! It was another mammoth loss at 2.6kgs! I have now reached my 5% goal and am able to collect my reward. I've decided that the smaller goals Weight Watchers (WW) set for me and the ones I set for myself are great excuses to buy little treats for myself. I know some people reward themselves with chocolate or some other dessert, but I think that rewarding your weight-loss with food seems a bit counter productive. This goal is being rewarded with a pedicure. My feet are suffering with the weather up here in Brisbane and I am embarrassed to wear thongs. Mum gave me her own little surprise for me with a little teapot for my peppermint tea and a cooler lunch bag for me to bring my lunch into work.

That's right people, I said WORK!! I have now got some work. It's not full-time, nor is it what I want to do, but it's bringing some cash in. I get more than I get on Centrelink which will mean I can finally be off it FOREVER. It also looks good on my resume that I'm actually doing something other than 'looking for work'. I won't say too much about where I'm at, but it's local and it's in customer service. You have to be careful about what you write on the internet, hence the 'alias'.

So now I have to return to my assignment... unless anyone wants to write it for me?? No? Fine!

Total weight loss: 7.4kgs
