Welcome to Runawaywombat

Hi and Welcome. I hope you enjoy my blog and hope we can share my love of cooking and making craft items which I have made for many years. Juggling motherhood and work has been fun and a learning experience. Runawaywombat is an Etsy site where I create classic items which are vibrant, practical and fun. Many items from Aprons, Tea Towels, make up and storage bags. You can see my items by going to www.etsy.com/shop/runawaywombat. On the food front I made Lemon slice and honestly I can't make enough of it as it run off the plate with my family.

Once a upon a time - weight loss

The last few days have been difficult with Functions to attend and food galore to eat. I resigned to the fact that the weight will go back on, and Oh well, what could I do.

The functions were great and lots of fun and I could feel the weight slowly coming back on. It was Christmas and heck the food was really nice.

I did, however do one good thing and that was going to the gym. I knew the food would get me but I tried to counter act the eating with sessions in the gym. I still can't do hours in the gym and I'm only able to do about 30 minutes.

Today I thought I would weigh myself. As I stood on the scales the little voice was saying "Bad idea, you won't be happy, it's gone all pear shape." As I stood on the scales I was to afraid to look down. Slowly I opened one eye then the other. To my surpise I hadn't gain any weight. Now, I know, I haven't lost any but I haven't gain any either.

The gym work must have helped to burn the extra calaries. Now the good news is there isn't any other functions for a while and as long as I get back on track quickly hopefully I can start losing the weight again.

So things are looking on the up and up. I'm still wanting to crack the 70kg mark and hope to do that next week. That's my goal and I'll see how I go.

To other people trying to lose weight, I wish you all the best, and lets continue this journey.P.S. the vegie patch is coming along and I'll be posting photos soon.
