A welcome .5kg (1.1lb) loss this week, leaving me with only 8.6kg (18.9lb) to go. Even the girl at the weigh in desk was impressed as she wrote '27kg' (59.5lb) as my total loss.

Half a pound away from 60lb (27.2kg) gone. It's not a bad place to start for the new year.

Of course, if I'd shown half the discipline Kimba had, I would have kicked much booty on Bootcamp. But I'm pretty pleased with how I went and I'm glad that the effort I put in this week helped peel off the weight I put on last week (believe me, the scales told an UGLY story!)

But there's a reason for the title of this entry. My next goal? To be a flower child. A 60s girl. Like Mia, I want to be shagadelic, baby!

Unlike Mia, I'm not going to set a time frame for this, I've not set any yet and I'm not going to start now (although becoming a 60s girl in time for my one year anniversary with WW would kick much arse).

I'm going to do what I did for the Bahama Mama Challenge, since that helped to peel 12kg off me. I'm going to keep up the exercise, rain, hail or shine. I'm going to track everything. I'll do my best to stick within my points. I'm going to drink around 3 litres of water a day.

If I fall off the wagon, I'll shrug my shoulders and get right back on again. I'll focus on eating fresh, nutritious food and keeping my no-fail environment.

In essence, I'm going to keep doing what I've been doing since I started this journey last February. It's worked this far. Here's to flower-power and a new leather jacket!
