Tomorrow is the day

Wow, its been a long time since I´ve posted, but tomorrow is the day I´m having my c section! The next week is going to be pretty dreadful in respect of recovery and pain and I am also a bundle of nerves at present....I really feel awful. I am nervous about the whole procedure and nervous about having a baby again.

We also have no name!! In Germany they don´t give you forever to decide either so there is a bit of pressure.

In any case, the good news (apart from the baby) is that I will be able to start immediately with losing weight. I am 123 this morning and really look forward to seeing what I weigh when I come home from the hospital and also after a few weeks of breastfeeding, walking and good diet.

I am Starting to Wonder...

...if I should have a eating plan prepared for when I get out of hospital. Calorie counting? Vegetarian Low-Carb? Sugar-free, Gluten-free? Paleo Diet?

I have been watching both the Australian and US versions of The Biggest Loser online these past weeks and have been finding the shows very motivating - if unrealistic. Calorie counting seems an important part of their regimes. 

Means I would have to find my calorie counting book, pull out the scales and maybe start recording online once again- I used Diet Doctor once before, however I know there are lots of programs available now. 

I think I will need some framework to build on from the beginning, so I will give it some thought. I have done well on various plans in the past...for a time. This time I want it to be permanent.

17 Days To Go...

I am having my C-section on the 17th of April and currently I am 122 kilos. I´m not too upset with that, I am no where near the dreaded 130 I was so worried about. 

I am confident that I am going to get quickly back into the groove of weightloss and exercise once I recover.  Its going to be hard though...
