About me

My name is Kym, I live in Sydney Australia and after having 2 children it is time to lose those extra kilos that I have gained. I was looking on the internet for a program to follow and came across Strip That Fat, after reading the information I decided to give it a go. I purchased the book on the 3rd January and have read it from front to back and am now following it to lose the weight.

I thought what better way to motivate myself to lose the weight than to share it with the world. So here is my blog of my weekly weight loss and how I am feeling.

Week 8 - Weigh in

Tuesday 3rd March

I can't believe it is week 8 already, I have been shopping and bought a couple of new tops, it feels so good to be able to wear nice clothes again. Well after my birthday weekend I didn't think that I would really lose that much, which I didn't but at least I didn't gain any.

Goal weight =60kg/130lbs

Weight & Measurements - Week 8
Weight = 61.5kg/135lbs - lost 400g/1/2lb :o)
Chest = 89cm/35" - Stayed the same
Waist = 82cm/32.2" - Stayed the same
Hips = 87cm/34.2" - Stayed the same
Thighs = 88cm/34.6" (legs together) - Stayed the same

I thought that it was going to be much worse than that, so I am very pleased with myself. Oh you should have seen though, yummy crackling off the roast pork, a couple of pieces of chocolate, cream on my poached plums. But I think what saved me was that I did a bit of extra exercise to compensate for all the naughtiness.

I know all these things were not in the program, but I did the best I could with what knowledge I had. Reading the book has helped to put food and exercise into perspective and know what to eat when and how much. I think that it is really helping me.

Hang in there you can do it too!
