*Last Ever* Tone Up Tuesday!

sunny_skies's picture

lost 1lb this week! I can't believe I lost, after the last 2weeks of a huge weight loss (4lbs each week! crazy!), I was anticipating staying the same this week. 

So I'm quite pleased with that.. I've lost 39lbs in 5months.. 9lbs til goal weight, 1.5 months to do it in. No problem Smile

So I've decided this will be my last 'Tone Up Tuesday' ..I'm almost at goal, and I now feel comfortable knowing I'll get there in time for the wedding. (I also don't want to bore anyone any further with my weight loss journey lol!)

I started this blog quite nervously as I don't have much confidence (IRL *or* online, I'm not a member of any other website, and even FB petrifies me!). So blogging something sooo O/T on a step parenting website made me worry in case people thought "why is she posting that here?!"

But with the encouragement of others here, I went ahead with Tone Up Tuesdays. (it was actually HadEnough's idea in the first place, all the way back in January, when I blogged about how I wanted to lose weight!)

At first lots of STalkers were up for joining me in losing weight or even just getting fit, but they all kind of fell to the sidelines and it's ended up just me on my own, boring everyone with my weight woes lol! I hope I haven't been too annoying! ..if I have been, apologies, but I really am so glad I went ahead with this blog, and carried on with it.

With blogging every week, I slowly gained a little more confidence to comment on others ST blogs, and offer advice, whereas I never would have considered my opinion mattered before.

Before, I was kind of a silent member of STalk, not commenting because I didn't think I'd be able to offer decent advice to help anyone, and not blogging too often for fear of going into too much detail/ getting found out by BM. 

I just hope with stopping Tone Up Tuesdays, I will feel able to blog more often about other things in the future. 

I'm sure it'll be ok, this whole journey has given me a confidence boost, and I'm hoping it'll stick Smile

Anyway, I'll be deleting all of my Tone Up Tuesday blogs later today, sort of like a spring clean for my mind! This has been a great journey, and I want to truly thank all of you for your support, advice and suggestions, you've helped me so, sooo much in the last 5months.. you're all amazing, and caring and wonderful Smile

thanks for the congrats everyone! Biggrin

I *am* proud of myself, but still won't be entirely happy until I reach my goal, I'm a bit like that.. once I've set myself a goal, nothing's good enough til I'm there ;) 

I got a bit paranoid after a few comments a few weeks back that people were getting bored of me obsessing about my weight and my looks. 

I could've just ignored, but I'm a stupidly over sensitive person (one of my many flaws lol!) and regardless of those peoples opinions, it just simply made me not want to blog about my weight anymore. 

I'm not enjoying it now.. I struggled posting Tone Up Tuesday last week, and this week I just want to stop..

I'd have stopped in a few weeks anyway once I reach my goal, this is just a bit early is all Wink

I might blog when I've reached my goal just to let you all know lol! x

You have done so well, congrats!!! You'll look fab for your Wedding.

I followed your posts and enjoyed them, and as someone who has lost over 100 pounds I know how hard it is to shift every single pound.

Also, agree that gaining weight and stepdoom can sometimes go hand in hand, so I'm all for any tips any Stalkers want to post about keeping fit and healthy !!
