Dealing with TOM

Posted 08-08-2008 at 09:56 PM by kiwikid
Mum and I are posting our blogs at the same time today. I am helping her navigate her way around this site. It is fun to have someone that I can can really talk to (with voice not typing) about what I am learning and my weight loss journey. Even though she in in NZ and I am in China, we Skype and read the same post together and discuss them.

With my TOM here I have put on 3lbs and now this morning I am .8lbs up still, so most of it has come off. I really hope though that I am not fooling myself. It would be awful to finish TOM and still be heavier, as then will have wasted 2 weeks....

New Scales

Posted 08-07-2008 at 07:35 AM by kiwikid
I bought new bathroom scales today. I debated it for a while. My current ones are reasonably accurate, but they only have a small dial with 1kg marked each mm. That is just too tiny and difficult to see from a standing position. The new scales are good quality digital German ones. They show both kg, lbs and stones, and they give me one decimal place as well, although I have decided to always round.

I tested them repeatedly and multiple weighings only differs by .3kg. A really old set I have, which I will now throw out, differs by 5kg so this is a big improvement!

Holiday Challenges

Posted 08-07-2008 at 07:24 AM by kiwikid
I holidayed in Florida this summer. There are so many things I like about America, but I have to say there is one area in which obese people are getting a very raw deal.

Toilets. Without a doubt toilet stall in USA are smaller than I have encountered anywhere else, and there is something WRONG; really wrong, with the design of the toilet seats used in public toilets.

I travel a lot in different parts of the world, and I have never encountered the issues I faced toileting in USA. Somehow because of the shape, or molding of the seat, I found that I could not reach...

What motivates - riding coasters

Posted 08-03-2008 at 09:10 AM by kiwikid
I don't want to loose good posts so I am transferring them here to my blog. Here is one I posted last week.

Been reading a lot of different peoples goals. I guess we all have a ton and a while back I my a list of both my vain and my real reasons for doing this. I have to tell a little story though. From June 26-July11, I went to Florida for my dream hoilday of two weeks doing all the theme parks. I have wanted to do this for such a long time, but never had a companion, then my best friend agreed to come. Our goal was lots of screaming on all the coasters. I had a secret fear though...
