Operation Roxy - In Progress

Monday, June 04, 2007

Yet again it's been awhile. I am always so flat out that my family doesn't even see me let alone me having time for blogging. My emails have been bouncing regularly too (oops). Sorry all!

Thanks so much for all of your support and friendship though. I miss you guys! If you ARE on MSN drop me your address and I'll add you to my list. I always log on when I am near the computer.

A pre warning I am going to get all the bad stuff out of the way then move onto a more positive note. So if you don't need to read this crud skip to the dotted line :p

So what's REALLY been happening in Jadey's life? I have had some fairly nasty foot and ankle problems. which may be coming partly from my back. In fact from the way my back and Neck feel right now I reckon my physio is ON THE MONEY!

I'm seeing a podiatrists and a physio regularly to try and get it all fixed up, but quite honestly I know the main reason I am in this mess. I had my weight down to 82kg last year. And I have slowly (though not as slowly as it takes to lose it) stacked a lot of weight back on. I recently weighed in at 104.5kgs. I am sore and miserable constantly regarding the pain I am in and the condition I am in. I have struggled to make it from the carpark to my desk everyday, it is THAT BAD. SO I am organizing some time with a dietitian also. I have banned crap food. And told the staff at the cafe at work not to sell it to me. (They won't either, isn't that good!) And we have a charity box at work with lollies and chips and stuff in it so I bought a packet of chips the other day and my colleagues stole it.

IT HAS ALL BEGUN AND FOR THE BETTER!

Jason and I toured Goulburn, Queanbeyan and Sydney last weekend with the Du770n Rally NSW. Had an absolute blast too! Was probably the BEST rally we have had the pleasure of doing so far even though both of us were in so much pain doing it. ha ha.

Next stop is Perth at the end of July. Not going to have much downtime but I am really hoping and praying the Perth girls might drop into my hotel for a bit so I can meet them.

In other news I have been in my job for about 2.5 months now and it's been awesome the whole time. My boss is one of those people you are naturally drawn to and it is such a fun environment. My other colleagues are also awesome! It's a really nice place to work which makes a difference since I spend 65+ hours a week there :) I also had some fantastic news confirmed today. I have been promoted!

It's the same job just a seniors position which means I get to take on some management responsibilities. They are really happy with my efforts so it is all paying off. I'm one step closer to where I want to be and one step closer to moving home to Sydney.

I have made the commitment to stay where I am until I have my own Club Management position. I'm led to believe that's not all that far away (Only two steps up and I'm there :P) I'm hoping to be a nice skinny girl by then and wearing some roxy Jeans on weekends.

My 2nd birthday is coming up and I have kept this blog since the beginning but I am thinking of making a move. I will keep you informed, may not happen because I am quite attached. I hope you are all well.

I will do my best to catch up on your blogs asap. Hugs and Kisses!

What Have I Done?

This blogger has been avoiding the weight thing for quite awhile. I won't go so far as to say that's wrong as that's what this blog is about, but I should have always addressed where I am at. And maybe if I had, I wouldn't have fallen so FAR.

I don't know that I am in a state at the moment to share how bad things are. Let's just say I am not the old me yet. But I am not that far away from it.

I haven't had my eating under control. I haven't been working out properly because I hurt my feet and ankles pretty bad. No idea what the exact damage is at the moment and I'm going to see a podiatrist on Wednesday, but just standing up is a painful task. Walking is near to impossible and anything else is beyond me.

There is nothing more frustrating then being in a gym for 60+ hours a week and watching everyone else train. This week I am determined to make full use of the pool however and I will swim at least 3 times.

I need to pull myself together food wise and start eating properly and heading down the right path. WHY is there a lolly charity container in the gyms kitchen? This is a place of health! The chocolates and ice cream in my freezer aren't much help either admittedly.

Speaking of freezers, I need one! Who has one lying around they aren't doing anything with? With the long hours I am working I need to have a freezer full of pre prepared meals. There's just no room in mine! (IF I take the ice cream out that would help a little though)

Anyway welcome to my emotional rant. I need to pull myself together and get it DONE!

So did you watch...

So did you watch the Biggest Loser Finale tonight?

I did.

I knew the results beforehand, but I still watched.

I'm so glad I did! You know what just hit me like a tonne of freaking bricks? These people may have cried and sooked. They had good days and bad ones like everyone else. BUT they still got up and went and did their workouts. They pushed through pain barriers and they broke down and built themselves back up again.

How on earth else do you think anyone comes to lose between 50 & near on 100kgs?

It sure as shit isn't handed to you on a platter.

I mean sure they got given personal trainers both on the ranch and off. They had their diets etc worked out for them. But they did the work. They could have stayed in bed and "not felt like it"

Especially when I saw Kai crying while trying to run after a hard night out partying. She hated it - it was hurting and she wasn't coping but she was still there giving it a go! To the point of tears.

Watch me - Watch me WORLD.

2007 is coming and with it comes Operation Roxy.
Operation 70's with Ails and a new me Not just in body but in mind and spirit.

I can't do this on my own. I can't even do it just with the help of my friends (although you guys play a HUGE role in my successes) But with God's help I can do ANYTHING. It's about time I realised that!
