12 Week Challenge Dinner

Last night was the 12 week challenge dinner in Brisbane for all Qld clubs. I hitched a ride with Jaana down to the apartments where most of the girls were staying. When we arrived, the rest of the people we were going with were totally drunk.

After I put on my new dress, my new shoes and my new handbag and felt rather snazzy. We headed off to Southbank (the convention centre) and got lost, stuck in one way streets and traffic jams. Who would have thought that Brisbane had peak hour traffic on Saturday night at 6.30pm? The roads were gridlocked, we then took another wrong turn which then headed us into more traffic snarls. After 1 1/2 hrs of driving, we found the convention centre carpark and arrived a little late but didn't miss much.

The dinner was a little bit '12 week challenge' for most people, meaning it was more sample size than dinner size but the dessert made up for that. We had coffee caramel something with caramel popcorn and it was so sickly sweet.

I didn't win but hey, i've lost 10.1kg and still going so i think i've won more than anyone realises.

Although, the night ended on a sour and sad note. Jayne, my beloved trainer, has resigned from the Goodlife gym. To say I'm shattered is an understatement as she's become a friend more than a trainer. Her last day is 18th December so i'm sure i'll be even more sad then. :-( Not sure who to choose as my trainer now. I can have Holly or Mel. Mel runs you around like a crazy lady and most people end up sick after her sessions (no thanks) or Holly has her little clicky group of people which were the one's that ended up totally drunk at the dinner. Dilemma. I just hope that i can pick the right one to keep me on my weight loss journey.

Photo's you ask of last night? I haven't downloadede them yet and Jaana and Jules haven't emailed them through. It's only 2.30pm so i'm not sure any of them will be up yet.
