HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!




WOW - Well I can't believe this year has passed. In fact it would have taken me awhile to realise it if it weren't for the lovely Linda sending me birthday messages this morning (thank you my dear!!!)

Now some of you that know me better, or some of you that have checked my profile are wondering wtf is she on - her birthday is in December! Yup it is. My Birthday also sucks - no one is around to share it in between Christmas and New Year (as I have always whinged about) And all of a sudden it came to me that I had the opportunity to have 2 Birthdays from now on. 2 lots of presents (not that I get any in December LoL)

You see this is my first birthday. This is the 1st Birthday of the new me. This is when I decided the old me couldn't go on to become 130 - 140 - 200kgs and it was time I got to business, lost the weight and got hot, like I should be. So on June 29th I decided to lose weight and recreate myself.

In many ways I am the same person, in many others I am now so different but in a good way (ask any of my girlfriends, who have been around long enough to know)

June 29th Last year I was just coming out of a big bout of gastro. I had lost at least 5kg (more cause I didn't check until a few days in) and I had decided that I didn't want to put it back on and I didn't want to carry that weight anymore. I was 114.5kg - Now my lowest weigh in recorded was 82.4kg a couple of weeks ago and I am working on slaughtering that and getting to goal. Sure I thought I'd be there by now, but I'm ok with the fact that I'm not. Lots has happened in my life over the last 12 months. And I will enjoy the next 12 and the 12 after that and so on.

I want to say a huge thanks to all my family and friends (and that includes bloggers) for the support and encouragement and kicks up the bum. For the companionship and for inspiration and motivation.

Anyone wanna do a birthday dinner in the next few weeks??? Or brunch is probably better. But it's way past time we caught up and I can celebrate the new me - with the new you!
