Last week I didn't bother posting. Not because I didn't loose any weight, I did. But because it would've been the same old, same old - ate carbs for breakfast, dranks water, ate a ton of salad etc etc.</div>

Today though, I'm posting because I've hit my first mini milestone...</div>

At first I was annoyed with myself, but I got over it pretty quickly. I figure that I have to live a balanced life, so I'm sticking to the meal plan...mostly.<br />
<br />
The key for me is to make better choices. For example, had a work meeting on Friday. Lunch was at Schnitz. Now I love Schnitz. I mean LOVE. But this time I got a kids meal. Best of both words. Made a better choice - still ate Schnitz. Saturday we had a family get together for my nieces birthday which spilled on over into dinner. Pizza was ordered. I went and bought a can of tuna and a prepackaged supermarket garden salad and quite happily ate that. Did you read that? QUITE HAPPILY!! Who have I become??? LOL<br />
<br />
Anyway, week 2's results were quite abysmal but a loss is a loss (even if it is only 500gms).<br />
Onwards and downwards.<br />

Everyone knows how that first week is just shit - headaches, tiredness, grumpiness and the fact that your so friggin hungry but I wasn't too bad (or at least I don't think I was LOL).<br />
<br />
The only thing that did annoy me was salad. Really a person can only eat so much salad. And yeah I know I could've eaten vegetables but it's been hot this week - as in ridiculously hot for a Melbourne October - so you don't want hot food. By the weekend I was well and truly over lettuce but I had an empty fridge and a house full of kids (mine and other peoples) so there was no way in hell I was taking the troops to the supermarket. Cue bland salad.<br />

<br />
Every day I've been doing a sneaky weigh in just to see what's going on. I know I shouldn't. I think everyone trying to lose weight knows they shouldn't but everyone does it. The great news is that I've had consistent weight loss - more than I expected. As of Saturday morning I was sitting on 118.1kgs.<br />
<br />
Then Saturday night happened. I know the whole concept of cheat days, but when you're on a liver cleansing diet and your cheat day is focussed on the copious amounts of alcohol that you're planning on consuming at your best friends 40th it kind of defeats the purpose of the hard work you've put in all week. That said, you only turn forty once so I was going to celebrate regardless with the mindset of think of the kilos lost prior as saving myself from gaining in alcohol consumption.<br />
<br />
I have to say that I'm impressed with my willpower. Usually alcohol equals copious amounts of biscuits, cheeses, cabana, dips, party pies, samosas - really whatever is on hand. I actually made a mental note of what I was eating (keep in mind I did eat a salmon salad for dinner prior): 2 party pies, 2 cocktail spring rolls, 1 crab ball thingy, 2 curry puffs, 2 little pieces of cabana and a small handful of Doritos. I was tempted to add up all the calories just to freak myself out but what's the point really? I had a fabulous time, my best friend had a fabulous time and that's all that matters.<br />
<br />
After the party I woke up wanting the biggest greasiest Maccas breakfast ever to combat the throbbing head and empty stomach feeling but a boiled egg and piece of multigrain toast it was. Straight back on the band wagon. Vegies and chicken for lunch and chicken salad for dinner (just for something different lol).<br />
<br />
Weigh in morning was today and surprisingly I didn't do as much damage as I expected on Saturday night.<br />
<br />
Starting weight: 121.9kgs<br />
Current weight: 118.6<br />
Loss to date: 3.3kg<br />
<br />
Onwards and downwards.<br />

Harsh but true.
I'm all for body positive and loving your curves, but truth be told my body is just a little too old for all this extra weight I'm lugging around. I'm sick of aching joints, I'm sick of being out of breath (just walking upstairs in my own house is a struggle - embarrassing but true), I'm sick of feeling like I'm 80. I think I finally hit rock bottom when I realised that tying my own damn shoelaces was an effort. How ridiculous, I'm 42 years old and my 12 year old said "I can do it for you Mum".<br />
<br />
So I'm putting it out there. I really don't care how many or few people see this, it's more making myself accountable in my own headspace. Yesterday I weighed in at 121.9kgs. I'm not ashamed or embarrassed about that number - it is what it is, but on my 161cm frame it's not healthy by any stretch of the imagination.<br />
<br />
Yesterday marked the start of a kickstart diet. You know the very low calorie ones (VLCD), only I'm not doing shakes but doing the alternative meal plan to Optifast (approx 800 cal per day). I know there is going to be people who say that this diet is bad, wrong, unhealthy etc - but keep it to yourself. Let me tell you, nobody knows diets better than a fat chick so I don't want to hear your well intentioned advice. Just humour me ok. And if I complain - feel free to tell me to STFU.<br />
<br />
At work it's it's not easy. I'm not usually a breakfast eater and I leave too early in the morning to comfortably eat beforehand. So I came up with a novel way to get a decent breakfast in. Toast made in the sandwich press (yes it was ridiculously flat - but hey it toasted) and a boiled egg that I'd cooked the night before peeled chopped and heated in the microwave.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
So that's one month done and dusted of my 2015 challenges. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Feb was tough - No fried food. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I really didn't realise how tough it would be because if I'm going to do something, I'm going to do it properly. I had to endure two Fridays of the the husband and kids eating fish and chips in front of me. I survived with my roast chicken and salad - and I actually enjoyed it. There was so many things that I just didn't think about. I went out for dinner and the pasta dish sounded great - nope - pan FRIED gnocchi. So second choice, Nasi Goreng - NOPE - essentially FRIED rice. I even did a Maccas breakfast run and almost ate a hash brown before my brain kicked in (I blame the lack of coffee that morning). I was pretty proud of the fact that I threw the hash brown out without a single bite. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So all in all I will admit to one digression - I ate two KFC nuggets. Yes, it was bad. Yes, I'm disappointed that I couldn't control myself for a measly four weeks but that doesn't take away from all of the willpower I showed earlier. And you know what, the whole point of the challenge was lifestyle change and what I got out of it is that I enjoyed not eating so much grease. Friday night fish and chips begone...well sometimes...it's all about moderation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Moving on to March - It's all about </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Now I'm not crazy. There is no way in hell that I'd be able to meal plan for a whole Month in advance, so I'm going week by week. The whole point of the Meal Planning challenge was to stop all those daily trips to the supermarket. We are not big grocery shoppers - we usually fly by the seat of our pants on deciding on the day what we are having. (Actually I lie - the current house rule set by the kids in Monday Mexican and Wednesday Spaghetti. I can work with them). We spend way too much on groceries this way - it's just too easy to make impulse buys. We are still going to have to get the basics like milk and bread every 2-3 days but at least it's better than going to the supermarket DAILY. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So welcome to March and Mexican Monday's menu this week as referenced by the above photo - Chilli Con Carne. </div>

Note the past tense...WAS.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Everything was going hunky dory. I managed to survive 2 Fish and Chip Friday's relatively unscathed. I even was the one who picked up dinner on the way home. With no one in the car I could've easily snaffled some chips and no one would know, but no. I grabbed a roast c<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">hicken and ate it with a salad...and enjoyed it I might add. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">But then this week happened. I worked a few long days, I ran around on my day off and didn't really relax at all. I was just exhausted and I caved.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">I picked up one of those bargain packs of 24 KFC nuggets for $10 and some chips and potato cakes for the family. I had no ideas on what I was going to eat. Not planning had let me down. In a last minute attempt at salvation, I got myself some coleslaw from KFC and ate it with a whole 2 nuggets. Yep that's it. Two. But it's two too many. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">I'm trying</span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"> not to be too hard on myself. After all, this was never meant to be a diet but more a lifestyle change of sorts. And to be honest</span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">, I've enjoyed eating the chicken and salad. I've enjoyed making better choices all round. I've taken lunch to work every day this week and have been eating more fruit and drinking more water. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">So I've moved on and here's to a new week. </span></div>

<br />
<br />
So it seems that Kmart dropped a new homewares catalogue a little over a week ago and everybody lost their minds. Last weekend I prepared a whole blog post about it but kinda accidentally saved it instead of publishing it. Of course as Murphy's Law would have it, this week I've seen a ton of blog posts about the same catalogue. So I wasn't going to repost this at all.<br />
<br />
Instead I've deleted all the fabulous pics I'd collected and have instead given you my wish list.<br />
What's on yours?<br />

You know the ones:
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Lose weight</li>
<li>Walk every day</li>
<li>Drink more water</li>
<li>Drink less alcohol</li>
</ul>
<div>
I'm rolling my eyes at them to be honest because I know that come maybe March-ish I've already completely wiped them from my mind. So this year I've opted for a different tact. This year again it's about setting myself some goals but in smaller time frames and things to really make me think about my lifestyle and the effects it has on my family in general.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><u>This is my challenge:</u></span></div>

<br />
Yeah, yeah I know January is missing but as a general rule January is a write off in our household - we have school holidays, holiday program, both the husband and I work long hours in retail and to add to this year we've been stressed out about my mother in laws recent cancer diagnosis. So yeah, January - no go. As for the other months, here's a run down of what they mean.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><b>No fried food February</b> - pretty self explanatory I figure. If we eat out or have takeaway, no chips etc for me. This is a tough one as I will admit to being a chipaholic. </li>
<li><b>Meal planning March</b> - again, a no brainer - Write a meal plan...use it.</li>
<li><b>All about the water April</b> - When I think water, I think *blerk. Anyone who knows me knows I can't stand water - to the point that I have been known to gag trying to drink it. So I'm setting myself the challenge (note I said challenge and not goal LOL) to drink 2Ls of water daily for the month.</li>
<li><b>Make the bed May</b> - again pretty obvious what this means. Yep, I'm a lazy bitch who very rarely will make my bed (okay only if I have a day off work). So I'm teaching my kids some standards, and will be pushing this one on them too.</li>
<li><b>Just eat it June</b> - Breakfast that is. I eat breakfast almost as often as I make my bed, so this is a hard one for me. But I know it's better for me. I know it'll kick start my already shit metabolism.</li>
<li><b>July just sleeping</b> - Out of all the monthly challenges, I think this one will probably be the hardest for me to overcome. Essentially what it means, is no screen time in bed - no mobile phone, no laptop, no TV - nothing. KILL ME NOW!</li>
<li><b>Affirmation August</b> - It's all about the positive affirmations...daily. Not just your twee, I'll put this shit on Instagram and everyone will like it - but ones that actually mean something to me.</li>
<li><b>Sleepy September </b>- For the love of God Kylee, get some sleep! 10.30pm on a work night is my curfew. No books, no nothing. It's 10.30 lights out. </li>
<li><b>Only home made October </b>- It's time to make the effort to make my own lunches. I make the kids, I even make Brian's but usually run out of time do my own. No excuses this month.</li>
<li><b>No Grinch November</b> - I was once the Queen of Christmas - everything organised, Christmas cards all written and ready to go, all decorations sorted and ready to go out come Dec 1 but the last few years due to poor time management and really just the can't be bothered factor it hasn't really gone to plan. So this November Christmas is getting set up and ready to roll.</li>
<li><b>Demanding December</b> - Ahhh December, why you be soooo busy? With Christmas parties, family birthdays, extended trading hours, trying to juggle Christmas between broken families December becomes one great jumble of running from one place to another. Well not this year. This year it's all about time management and prioritising a work / life balance. </li>
</ul>
<div>
So with no further adieu, I bring you:</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #545454;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">Why TIME, of course. This week's Mood Board was entirely open to interpretation so I was originally not going to do anything clock related but when there are so many stunning time pieces around it's hard not to. Especially when some of them are dirt cheap (hello <a href="http://www.kmart.com.au/" target="_blank">KMart</a></span></span><span style="color: #545454;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">!) and some send us down Memory Lane (tell me what Aussie doesn't remember the test page from their childhood).</span></span></span></div>

This week I'm going au naturel but I'm shaking it up and doing it on a budget. Kmart has really come a long way in the last 12 months...really drab to outrageously fab. Now usually my Mood Board Monday posts are wish lists, things that I would love but apart from the odd statement piece they're out of my price range. This is where Kmart comes in. This season they're really hitting the mark with on trend items regardless of your style. If you like the classic, natural look - read on.</div>

After doing a whirlwind makeover on Jack's bedroom only 3 days prior, Liam was insistent for his birthday that we makeover his room as well. Unlike Jack's room, Liam's room was set up for an older boy from the time we moved in here (2 years ago). So he already had a "display" surfboard and some pieces that fit a the surfing theme that he chose. Liam is also much fussier about his "stuff" than Jack so we knew there wasn't too much we could move. So with all that in mind, we told him that his room was already age appropriate and maybe next year we could do something with it. Astonishingly, he believed us so he was in for a shock when he got home from school.</div>

I totally love how it turned out and Liam does too. Never in a million years did I think that the husband would agree to putting corrugated iron on the walls (he won't even let me paint the walls) but I'm so glad he agreed. The bargain is that it only cost us just over $250, especially considering the wave canvas was $149. Awesome.</div>

I'll admit that I don't mind a few subtle purple hue hits but it's really not my most favourite of colours.

The bedroom setting is from <a href="https://www.adairs.com.au/bedroom/quilt-covers-coverlets/home-republic/vintage-washed-linen" target="_blank">Adairs</a>. I love the Vintage washed linen. It looks so comfy and inviting. Loving the <a href="http://www.ilovelinen.com.au/floral-dia-de-muertos-cushion-cover/" target="_blank">Floral Dia de Muertos cushion cover</a> AKA Skull Cushion. This as well as tons of other gorgeous cushions can be found over at I Love Linen. Now I don't usually troll Etsy but I stumbled across this print a while ago on Pinterest and loved it. You can find it <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/173384429/radiant-orchid-ive-got-designer-bags?ref=shop_home_active_3" target="_blank">here</a>. Another favourite store of mine is Domayne. That is where you'd find the <a href="http://www.domayneonline.com.au/homewares/decorator-items/cushions/kas-omari-multi-cushion.html" target="_blank">Kas Omari Multi Cushion</a> AKA the flamingo one. And lastly the Purple Sky print. How serene is it? Not a fan of the heavy black frame but the print is just stunning. You can find it at Down That Little Lane in their <a href="http://www.domayneonline.com.au/homewares/decorator-items/cushions/kas-omari-multi-cushion.html" target="_blank">Sky Series</a>. </div>

<span style="text-align: justify;">Everyone loves a surprise right? Yesterday the husband and I worked our butts off to organise a special surprise for Jack for his birthday. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small; text-align: justify;">(And for those concerned about me and recovery, I was a good girl and did no lifting and stretching).</span><span style="text-align: justify;"> </span><br />
<span style="text-align: justify;">Since he was turning 10, we decided it was about time to do an update on his bedroom - change it up from a little boys room to a tween room. I spoke to Jack not too long ago about updating his room and him and I spent ages going through pictures and making a board in Pinterest of things he liked. </span><br />
<span style="text-align: justify;">Check it out </span><a href="http://www.pinterest.com/brodricksgolive/bedroom-themes-boys-tweenteen/" style="text-align: justify;" target="_blank">HERE</a><span style="text-align: justify;">. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
He had his heart set on one particular room so I told him we could do something similar. This was the room he wanted.</div>

Some with just a few words and some that were practically fully written. With that in mind I thought why waste a written post so I'm going right back to a challenge from last year with mood board monday.

This week we have reflective. Now originally I had gone through and pinned a heap of reflective items that were really cool but I saw one mirror and envisioned a whole little layout and it grew from there.

Much to my husbands disgust, I tend to go over the top. I can't help it. I look at Pinterest for ideas and this crazy person just pops out.<br>

So in the spirit of research I created a new pin board, but I was sneaky about it. The Mumma-to-be (Jacqui) follows me on Pinterest so I set up a board that we could both pin on. Now for those who don't know Jacqui she is a little obsessed with animal print (and by a little I mean a whole game reserve practically lives at her place) - me, I have a love/hate relationship with it, mostly hate.<br>
<br>
So when Jacqui started pinning things in animal print, being the moody cow I am, I said no. Like,<br>

Like, <b>I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU AND IT'S YOUR BABY SHOWER BUT MY HOUSE IS AN AMIMAL PRINT FREE ZONE.</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And yes, shouty caps were necessary.</div>
But I was sneaky...and I set up a secret Pinterest board with all the imaginable zebra print party items a baby shower could ever need and want. It's no longer a secret, so knock yourself out and click the link if you're thinking about a zebra themed anything.<br>

So all my planning, research, sneaky buying and DIYing all came together a few weeks ago in what I might say myself was a brilliant day. </div>

When I saw this theme, one place and one place only came to mind...<a href="http://theindustrialrevolution.com.au/" target="_blank">The Industrial Revolution</a>. This shop used to be called The Ugly Duckling. I used to drive past it fairly frequently but it's in a high traffic area with very little parking and I could just never get to it but every time I'd drive past I'd look at that big orange sign with the duck wistfully. Then one day I happened across their facebook site, which linked back to an online store and I was in heaven. Imaginary heaven that is. As much as I drool over this look, it just doesn't quite cut it with my house. I'm thinking maybe one or two smaller statement pieces I might be able to get away with but for now I'll just be content with moodboarding it up.</div>

Truth the told I feel off the wagon a tad with the blog in general, but I'm back and ready to hit the keyboards. First up, this weeks mood board Monday theme of Coral. I'm kinda thinking that this wasn't really what Lisa over at <a href="http://www.lifeasweknowit-blog.com/" target="_blank">Life as we know it</a> had in mind when she set the theme coral, but hey it's open to interpretation.<br />

New week and I'm back in on the right day AGAIN. Who wouldda thunk it. This weeks theme is an interesting one which really had me stumped..."taking flight". So what do you think of when you hear the words taking flight? I had several ideas - birds, chasing seagulls, airports, planes, so I just ran with a random mix of whatevers. <br />

</div>
Well I'm going to cheat a little this week for the festival post.
Next week I have a work conference and our main day is a festival of
sorts. The theme is Childhood. So think like a child, dress as your
childhood hero, dress as something from your childhood, be all bright
and rainbowy...whatever floats your childhood boat. There will be games
and activities in child themes. So yeehaww a childhood "festival" it is.<br />
<br />
So
this is where the cheating comes in. A few weeks ago we had a meeting
with a very similar theme. I'm wearing essentially the same outfit but
with a few minor changes to accommodate for the "Hey, I'm from
Melbourne, are you are trying to kill me Sydney with your 30 degree
temps". So rather than putting it all together just to take a pic, I'm
gonna rehash my last photos. Being the photo whore I am though, I'll be
back with updated Sydney pics.<br />

Hexagons seem to be a key design statement right now with them popping up just about in every facet of design: fashion, art, home wears and even beauty.<br />

Now it just so happens that I was hotfooting it around the gorgeous Melbourne the last two days and because in my spare time (read anytime we were in the car) I was trying to write this blog post, I had hexagons on the mind. Seriously, I was tripping over hexagons left, right and center. I've snapped a few pics as proof. I would have snapped more but the husband was starting to get just a tad testy with all the "Hey, wait. I've gotta get a pic of this" moments.</div>

I thought that metallic would be easy, but I guess it's all in the interpretation. All week I've had in the back of my mind what I was going to do and keeping an eye on both instagram and Facebook (yes surprise, surprise retentive Kylee follows a LOT of interior designers) for anything new that caught my eye that fit my imaginary brief. But then everything I had in mind changed with just one photo released on the Facebook page of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/emilyziz?fref=ts" target="_blank">Emily Ziz Style Studio</a>.<br>

Right, so it's not all metallic but I love how the metallic pops when all this is put together. Imagine the gorgeous wallpaper in your bedroom with the mirrored dresser in front of it and the art deco mirror hanging just above and slightly off center. Then the beautiful accessories styled on the dresser with the pop of orange and the metallic homewares reflecting back. If I had more time, I'd play around with them in photoshop to show you exactly what I can see, but for now, just run with your imagination.<br>
