Getting Krackers cracking
Hi! My name is Maria. Krackers is the nickname I "earned" from one of my colleagues / manager at work because my surname is a mouthful and I have a tendency to crack my colleagues up. Hated it first, now love it and am not afraid to use it :) It gives me the advantage that people don't expect me to fit in and it lets me get away with a LOT.

Hi! My name is Maria. Krackers is the nickname I "earned" from one of my colleagues / manager at work because my surname is a mouthful and I have a tendency to crack my colleagues up. Hated it first, now love it and am not afraid to use it :) It gives me the advantage that people don't expect me to fit in and it lets me get away with a LOT. I'm 42 years old and a little more fluffy than average. I didn't set myself fixed goals of losing weight or getting fitter, because I knew I wouldn't be able to spend much time actively pursuing them. However, I am committed to keeping track of my progress, lose weight gradually and get fitter. Beginning of January 2009 I set myself a goal to go down 1 dress size this year. A little apprehensive, but I believe if I don't start setting me that goal, I will not really get on with it, either. Let's see where I go from here. 23Jan09 update: First goal met. Down from 80 kg at the beginning of January (and I already had lost weight before) to 77 kg (my target was 78 kg). Next goal already set. - Looks like I might very well go down a dress size after all. Didn't dare to believe in it!

My Goals:
Go down a dress size this year (2009) m/e Jan09: 78 kg - goal met m/e Feb09: 70 kg - adjusted on 07Feb from 75 to 70.
My Program:
Watch more carefully what I eat, when I eat it and be more disciplined. Also, I want to keep track of my progress and not lose sight of what I want to achieve. 11Jan09: In the spirit of above, I've now decided to try to get to 78 kilos total weight by m/e Jan09. Doesn't look like much, but I hate the scales and what they do to me. IF I achieve this goal, I'll gift myself with some cuddly yarn to knit myself a cuddly scarf and hat. If I don't achieve the goal, I won't get it and will keep trying. 24Jan09 update: WOHEEE - Didn't dare to believe in it, but I reached my goal early. Weigh-in confirmed 77 kg today. Goal for m/e Feb: weigh-in at 75kg gift to me if I achieve this: one extra special meal with my darling husband and a bottle of wine (screw my allergies!) 07Feb09 update: Just had to adjust my goal. My weigh in (3 weeks before Feb09 m/e confirms I already have achieved my goal. Guess, the bar was too low. WOHOOOOO
