My New Year's resolution for 2009 was to weigh less than my husband before the next New Year.
There were two possible approaches to achieve this goal:
1. Lots of cakes and goodies to increase Andrew's weight.
2. Diet and exercise to decrease my weight.
Although I was really tempted by option 1, it wouldn't help my situation in the long run. Shopping for clothes would remain depressing, and my children would continue to out-walk me.
I've been working on option 2. To date, I have lost 9kg (that's about a third of the way there).
The Easter stumbling block was causing me some concern. All that chocolate!
Solution:
I bought myself a "chocolate bunny". When the others were consuming their Easter chocolate, I got out my "chocolate bunny" so I didn't feel too hard done by. My bunny is actually a chocolate scented plush bunny which sings "Yummy Yummy Yummy I've got love in my tummy" when you press it's hand. The best thing is that I will still have my "chocolate bunny" long after the others have finished their Easter chocolate!!

Great idea, wish I had thought of that. You look good by the way.
ReplyDeleteWell done sister! BTW, dark chocolate requires less to be consumed for the same amount of pleasure...so a small dark chocolate hit (i.e. one Lindt square) can be forgiven every so often. And if you have a day where you fall off the wagon, so what? Just pick yourself up and get right back on. Don't beat yourself up over it.
