A little more time...?

     So here we are at the beginning or April! My goal, as you know, was to have lost 20kg by the end of March, but for a few reasons, I am going to give myself an extra week to try and get there.
     Firstly, it is around "that time" again, so weight is fluctuating a bit. Secondly, it was Easter last weekend! No I didn't go overboard on the eggs, I had a couple to indulge a little as such, but still...
     I know I have said a million times that I feel good, but I am really starting to notice that I feel lighter as well. I don't know how to describe it, but I do. Clothes I wear around the house feel like they hang in a way that makes me feel a bit slimmer. For the first time in his life, my 7 year old son can get his arms around me when he hugs me!! That made me cry when I realised that!. It was beautiful. My mother-in-law said to me just this morning how much of a difference she could notice. In my face and my neck as well. I even have collarbones!
     Even more exciting, on my most recent trip to Coffs Harbour, I went into "Katies"  and bought clothes! Katies!! Sure they were still off the big racks, but they fit!! I was probably a teenager when I last bought clothes from there! Little things like that are very exciting, and such big changes. I love it!
     It blows my mind looking at photos of myself that were taken just 6 months ago and seeing how much I have changed. And it blows my mind even more that it hasn't been a huge effort to make these changes. I mean, yes, I have worked very hard, and I am continuing to do so, but I am enjoying what I am doing, so it isn't a huge chore that "diets" can be.
                      Just to show the difference in my face and neck...

     Anyway, this was just a brief note to let you know that I haven't forgotten to post results. I may not get there, but they will still be up very soon!!
