So it's been an amazing week. Managed to lose 2kgs in a couple of days. And I can see where it's come off.

I'm pretty happy having met a guy, in the last few months and we have just started seeing each other. So a bit of added motivation to finish this. Just some confirmation out there for all you ladies, be you, do the things you would love to do but are afraid of doing and let go of the toxic stuff in your life. Take some risks and you never know what can happen.

It's taken me awhile with a few ups and downs - I was stuck at 98 for awhile and went up and down. This morning I hit 96.4 so it's all moving in the right direction again. Hating winter. We have had some pretty yuk weather so I've stocked up on hoodies and socks. Wont be long and it will be spring and headed to summer. This week has gone so fast.

Hey Blondetastic, so thrilled to read your post. 2 kgs in a few days - keep doing what your doing!

New man too, gonna need a few more details on that topic - where did you meet him? What's he like?

Anyway, has made my day to know all is well in your world. Keep being you. XX

Thanks Donzie. I'm struggling a bit at the moment with a bad head cold, shifting house, working and just life, so hoping to be 100% on track when I've moved this week. It's been a bad combination of missing meals or eating the wrong thing. Not every day or every meal and not enough to make me put on. Life is just a bit crazy at the moment but I'm looking forward to being in a more stable situation and just having some order back in my life.

So the new man. Well, I met him as a customer who comes through my work and he caught my eye straight away. We started talking about cars, he is the person who helped me find my car. He is hot. Nice body, great guns and tatts, tanned, blue eyes, blonde hair - you know the deal. I can't see me getting tired of looking at him any time soon

Treats me really good. Loves spending every minute he can with me and has already introduced me to some friends and family. Everyone knows him and likes him, he will go out of his way to help people out. And he has a pretty hot loud car. Very smart when it comes to practical stuff especially working on cars which is his favourite topic, and just really good with his hands. Always busy doing something. Seems to be the type that if he says he is going to do something, he is onto it. Pretty much all I could want. Didn't think men like him existed in real life life. Oh yeah and he smells amazing 24/7!!

So my life is pretty busy at the moment and I'm looking forward to things slowing down a bit so I can breathe. I have to get ready for work soon, but am looking forward to seeing how everyone is going when I get a chance to chillax a bit.

Still going with Cohens just havent had a lot of opportunity to get on here. Have moved house, been in hospital twice in the last month and been a bit short of cash. Due to being in hospital, moving etc I have deviated a bit, but have managed to lose about 5kgs. So things are still going in the right direction. Just a short post to touch base, thats all I will be able to do for awhile until I can afford wifi at home. Hope everyone is doing great, miss you all.

Donzie · #**125** 24-06-2016, 10:49

Hey Blondetastic,

So glad to hear your still making progress. Sounds like you've had one hell of a month, I hope the worst of it is behind you now.

Have missed not having you around, have missed your take on things. The forum is a quiet place now

Hope to hear more from you soon. Take Care XX

Hi Blondetastic , Just wanted to say a Hello and what an amazing weight loss you have had to date... congrats, you are a true inspiration

I really wanted to drop you a line the other night but sleep came over me

All the best

blondetastic · #**127** 29-06-2016, 12:54

Thank you Donzie and Jessy ☺ I am going to try and get on here more often. I need it. There has been a lot of pressure the last 6 weeks. So much going on. Now I just want to get on with nailing the last half of this weight loss. Planning to get to goal before summer - preferably October/November. At the moment Im battling chronic tiredness but its partly self inflicted and partly adapting to a new life plus serious illness. I have a specialist appointment this week to find out whats going on with my kidney. Ok I better get off here and get some stuff done. Its hump day every one. Stay strong! !

jessy · #**128** 08-07-2016, 13:51

Heidimama · #**133** 18-09-2016, 18:59

Hi blondetastic! i am just stopping by to say hi and hope you are well. Hope to see you soon. I am just starting back myself.

blondetastic · #**134** 27-10-2016, 21:15

Hi everyone. I'm still around. Have a lot going on. Want to post here everyday again. Quick rundown. Weight is in low 90s. I have a very controlling and abusive partner. My work has changed to mainly overnight shifts but its supposed to be temporary. Will be back tomorrow hopefully x

blondetastic · #**135** 31-10-2016, 09:31

Moving house on the weekend then getting my focus and goals back on track. Between work and personal life things are hectic and chaotic so I've taken steps to do what I have to do for me.

Donzie · #**136** 01-11-2016, 09:08

Hi Blondetastic! So great to hear from you again. I often wonder how you are doing. I hope you are moving to a new house alone (leaving controlling abusive partner behind). Sounds like you are still kicking goals weight wise, low 90s is great. I really hope to see you back on here more. Good luck with the move. Stay safe. X

blondetastic · #**137** 01-11-2016, 13:27

Thanks Donzie. Really looking forward to focusing on me again!. I am still with partner just going to live apart. He has taken ownership for his behaviour and went and taken himself to counselling so I will see how thatall goes. He is working on issues and there has been improvement but obviously I have to draw a line in the sand. Im doing what I have to for me and hopefully things can work with him and I in the long term. Only time will tell. Still waiting for wifi to get up and running. Checking in here will be a lot easier once I can get on my laptop. So much to catch up on with everyone's diaries etc.

Moved house and life is so much better. Lost 4kgs this week and am back in the zone. I'm gortunate I only have put on 6kgs. Changing to overnight shifts was a massive adjustment with eating and sleep, then dealing with an abusive controlling partner on top of that olus increased work hours was taking its toll. I also had a couple of nasty peeps try to get me the sack. They put in an official complaint which my supervisor recognized as an outright lie. On top of that I was in hospital twice and will need 2 operations.

No one knew what I was going through but it didn't take long for people to figure it out and I started to get a lot of support from people I know and random people plus made some new friends.

I refuse to be a victim. So I planned ahead and changed the things I could change to get my life back on track. I've come too far to let things stop me.

My first goal is just to get under 88 6kgs - the lowest I got to in about July. I'm currently 90.6. So only a couple of kgs.

Reaching my ultimate goal is important to me. The need to finish what I started is something I refuse to give up on. I am going to be the best I can be.

I still haven't been able to get wifi in my home but still working on it. Don't like posting here via my phone and that's holding me back from posting regular updates. I will be back soon hopefully having hit my next goal.

Life deals out some tough cards. We can't control everything but we can control ourselves. That's the key thing to remember.

Donzie · #**139** 05-12-2016, 07:32

Hi Blondetastic,

Good to hear the move went well and your slowly getting more settled. Hopefully things will now continue to improve for you. Changing work shifts from day to night can be a nightmare with regard to body cycles (sleep, food etc) sounds like you have managed ok though - well done.

Sorry to hear your having such a rough time of things at work and at home (before you moved) and winding up in hospital to top it all off. Hope you get a little time off over Christmas to relax a bit.

Take care X

Hey Donzie!! Great to hear from you 😁 Well I'm back in hospital. Isn't it ironic? I get my act together and my mojo back and my health plays up. Been feeling amazing then BAM out if the blue the kidney issues flair up again. The pain management is great and our hospital is awesome. I'm grateful its something fixable. Time in here gives me plenty of opportunity to reflect on my life - where it's going abd what I want. And reminding myself I'm driving this thing, I'm in control.

So....a question. Does anyone doing Cohens also do weights for toning? I am considering taking them up again because tgey are also great when needing to let out frustration. Thoughts anyone?
