The first completely finished room

The hallway.

Hallway

Well, I could stop now and say it’s completely finished, but honestly there are a few little touches here and there that need doing. For example, the light shade needs replacing, and more light is needed in general. I will also need to go around the architraves and repaint them, along with ceiling, and there’s a few little patches of yellow that need going over again, but for the time being, it’s done!

Mirror, Mirror on the wall

Check out the mirror! My mum bought this for us when we saw it in this little antiques store. Both mum and I said, “That would look great in our/your hallway” at the same time, so we knew it was meant to be. Only $65 too!

98.7!?!

So after my last post, which was on Friday 16th July, I’ve lost another 800 grams – I’m now UNDER 99kg!!!

I’m so ecstatic, and this just motivates me even more to lose the weight I need to lose.

Also, check this out:

size 16 jeans!

These are a pair of jeans that I’ve not been able to fit into and button up comfortably for about two years. Given, they are still a little tight, but I WORE them today. I LOVE RESULTS!

99.5kg!

or 219.35lbs. It still sounds like a lot of weight, but currently I am the lowest weight I’ve been in about 3½ – 4 years. I think once the ’98′ starts showing, that’s when it will really hit that whatever I’m doing is working.

From August 2008, I’ve lost 8.5kg or ~18lbs. Another 19.5kg to go, but slow & steady wins the race. If I lose about half a kilo every week until the end of the year, I should be hitting the 85kg mark.

Wish me luck!
