JULY 2005.
THE BEGINNING OF MY JOURNEY.
107.3 kGS
Whoa big mamma!!!!!
That's a bad photo all over. Bad hair, bad clothes, bad weight! Look at me! I look twenty years older than 29! I was 107.3 kgs. Never again.
MARCH 2006 - 89 KGS
Ah the wedding. June 16th, 2007. I was very happy on this day and glowing.
Weight: 91 kgs.
My weight went very much up and down from the time we got engaged.
AND THEN CAME THE HONEYMOON!!! Imagine going on a P & O cruise. There was enough food to sink a battleship (pardon the pun). Anyway, I succumbed to the temptation and my waistline grew and grew. Over two weeks I put on 6 kgs. How? Carbo-overloading and little exercise. Sex doesn't count.
Here are some honeymoon photos - yikes.
96 KGS APPROX
WELL GUYS, THE NEXT PHOTOS YOU SEE OF ME WILL BE OF ME LOOKING SLIMMER, UNLESS I GET CAUGHT OUT SOMEWHERE IN THE MEANTIME.
Well I didn't get snapped looking slimmer. About four months down the track, here I am at a wedding in November, heading towards 100kg again. And it didn't stop there....
The ever-expanding waistline. Christmas 2007. I was pregnant but didn't know it ... only three weeks though, so can't use that as an excuse for my girth.
I did a really great job of avoiding cameras while I was pregnant, but here is me with our gorgeous baby boy, Michael. Sans make-up, sans hair-brush, sans sleep!!
....and a few weeks later
at our local rsl. Oh my god. Biggest I have ever been. In October, I joined weight watchers again, tipping the scales at 128.3. I had fooled myself into thinking I weighed 120kg.

then there is a shot of Michael and me....at about 9kgs slimmer... at 119.3So as you can see there have been a lot of ups and downs and while my weight went up and down, life kept on going and a lot of wonderful stuff happened. My goal is to get back to looking how I did at my wedding...and then keep going. So what's different now you say? Well, I'm determined. And I'm doing it better than I ever have. I look at my son who depends on me and I need to depend on myself and they are two big enough reasons.
The next time you see another photo of me will be when I am 109.3 kgs....There won't be too long a wait.

Hi Rebecca, that's a great collection of pics to kick off your blog :)
Meaningless coincidence of the day: I weighed 92kg when I married my Adam, clearly we are clones lol
I look forward to seeing those skinny pics in the future.
