I mentioned a plateau-buster in my last post. Woo Hoo. 2.1kg gone this week. I knew it! I was feeling very trim, very bony etc. I am loving my time at the gym, and when people mention that it's not "sustainable" I have to question why they say that. Some days I'm only there for an hour, other days I'm there for 4 hours. I only work two days per week, and my kids are all at school. I have time on my hands, so what else would I be doing. Housework? Overrated! Making cards? Haven't done that since May, don't miss it. I find that if I put the effort in when I have the time, I'm a much nicer, happier, fitter person when I'm not there!
I need to vent about my MIL. She seems to be my biggest saboteur. I know she'd be horrified to hear that, but it's true. When I'd lost 8kg, with 27kg+ to go, she was telling me to stop! A few days ago, she was coming around to pick up my kids for an sleepover. She's wonderful to me, in so many ways, and yet.... I answered the door in my gym gear, as I was going there as soon as the kids were picked up. Her reaction. She laughed hysterically. And laughed and laughed and laughed. She said, "Sorry, but you're looking too 'sporty'". I didn't respond (as I was pissed off) and she admitted that it made her feel bad to see me looking so fit, she felt bad that she wasn't. Finally! She admitted what I suspected all along. Don't bother to project you issues onto me, I'm finally dealing with my own issues, and I'm doing quite nicely, thank you!
