Just keeps getting better!

I'm way under the maximum weight limit to go on the slide at a local playhouse cafe! lol.  Might not seem like much to some.  But I was determined to get under 90kg so I could go on the slides again.  I hadn't thought anything more about it for a while until I went there again today.  I was watching the kids and my youngest was having trouble climbing up.  I thought to myself, oh I can't help her, I can't go up there.Then I saw the sign "90 KILO MAX" and thought, OMG yes I can!  I am under that!  I couldn't get my shoes off fast enough.
So we spent a few hours going up and down the slide, the girls were in fits of laughter!  I am exhausted!
I did a RPM class (spin ) at the gym before we got there so was already feeling tired.
I ordered our usual chips & gravy, I was so looking forward to them!  They have the yummiest gravy.  So I sit down to have some, I eat 2 chips and I start to feel ill.  I find I normally cant' eat fora  while after an RPM class.  So that was all I had :(  better for me in the long run I know but still!

Ok Who are you and what have you done with Tracey?

I am really not recognising this person that I am today.  I love going to the gym!  I am doing things at the gym I would have kicked and screamed to stop myself from having to do! 
As I am doing the Sydney Harbour Bridge climb in June I thought I best start trying to prepare my body in some way.  I don't know exactly how hard its going to be but I know its going to be hard.  So I have decided to do some training.  I thought maybe a bit of the stepper and the treadmill on a steep incline might help.  Yesterday I jumped on the stepper and went in with the idea of doing about 10 minutes.  10 minutes in I was feeling really good so thought I would push for 15, 30 minutes later I had done 87.1 flights of stairs!  I then did 20 minutes on the treadmill.
Today I did 10 minutes on the stepper before RPM and I feel great.  I even feel like going back tonight and doing Zumba.  WHO IS THIS PERSON???

I bought my first pair of Jeans last week. They are a size 18.  I wore them out on Saturday night and god I felt good!  With my new sexy heels, I felt hot!
The scales have finally moved again.  Total loss is 33.1kg.  I am 1kg off my 2nd goal weight.  Three weeks to go until I need to be at 85kg.  Anything after that will just be a bonus.  I can't imagine anymore than that coming off but if it does, that will just be amazing.

I have a had alot of people asking me more questions about the surgery, the process, the healing, the results.  It great to be ablet o share my knowledge with those.  I can't recommend the surgery enough.  If you have tried everythign else, like I had.  I wish I had of known about it years ago.

Who's your yummy Mummy? I am, that's who!

I freakin won!  I am B105 Brisbane's Yummy Mummy!  I can't believe it and I can't thank my friends and family enough for voting for me!
I never thought I had a chance!  Not with all the boobs in all the other photos!
I can't believe it!  I won $2000!  Wish I could rub it into the face of the horrible person who tried to get me disqualified!  I am a regular comper, I know how to check and follow Terms & Conditions! 
I am going to pay for my bridge climb with the money, pay a few bills and maybe book a trip to Melbourne! 
After all the names I have been called over the years, I never thought "yummy mummy" would be above my name.  BUt it is! 
I had my hair coloured last week.  I have always wanted to try being a blonde.  So I went for it.  I don't like it! :(  I know its going to take a few goes to get it to the nice platinum colour, but right now, it seems yellow to me.  I go back in 5 weeks to get the regrowth done etc, so hopefully it will tone it down a bit then.

ME AND MY BLONE HAIR AND MY MUM

The scales have only moved slightly again.  Only half a kilo in 2 weeks.  So that makes it 32.5kg.  I have 1.6kg to go to reach my 2nd target.  That is to be 85kg by the time I go to Sydney.  That is a month away so fingers crossed I can do it.
Had a lovely mothers day yesterday.,  Was very spoilt as usual.  Got a nice breakfast and cuddles in bed.  Managed to eat a quarter of a pancake with maply syrup and cream.  Didn't have room for my cup of tea after that.
Had a nice bbq lunch at my mums with her.  Very yummy salad and meat.  Also managed to drink almost a bottle of moscato.  Yum!
By the time we got to my mother in laws, I was ready for bed.  Didn't really have any room left to eat but I did pick at a bit of the baked ham.  I loved the glazed part that is a little bit over cooked.  Thats my favourite part of any meat! (and vegies for that matter)
Didn't have any room for dessert or even my last glass of wine.  But I was satisfied. 

Well off to finish the housework before hubby gets home, been fighting my youngest all morning to get her to have a sleep.  She has started climbing out of her cot again.  THeres a work out walking up and down the hallway 1000 times a day!
