And guess what...my naked weight is 80kgs! Today is a great day. I am feeling good about my body and am certainly feeling more sexy, as oppossed to frumpy. When I was at my heaviest, I absolutely hated the idea of having sex. Not now though. Losing weight definitely changes things!

Serves 10 to 12
- 4 cups (1L) red/dark grape juice
- 1.5L of red wine (any but I prefer a port)

See, you don't have to give up everything on WW! It's all about balance.

Go you sexy thing! 80kgs Whoooo Hooooo. That is absolutely fantastic. I so hear the whole sex thing. Without going into details, life in that department sure is a lot healthier too these days ;) When we went to Sweden they gave us some mulled wine to drink. Very heavy, very sweet and boy does it give a good kick in the head the next day if you have too much.. But so nice on such a cold day. Hope you have a wonderful Yule :)
Haven't tried mulled wine, but it sounds delish. Well done on the weight and the "you know what" front. (Remember I'm the older, not so liberated one). LOL.....
Must have been so thrilling to see 80kg on the scales. Have you found you not only feel more sexy but are taking better care of your body as well, because you feel this way. I'll definetly get a copy of the recipe for your mulled wine, as I am going to a Xmas in July soon and that would be nice to make. Ta!
It's great that you are feeling so good about your body!
Mulled wine - brings back memories of a house warming party we had mid winter when my husband made mulled wine. Gave everyone a glass as they arrived - not sure what he did wrong but we had quite a few half drunk glasses sitting around the place when the party was over!
whoohooo to feeling sexy! & 80kg, well done!!! You really are the incredible shrinking woman!
80kg well done woman! im glad to hear you are feeling better about your body, a girl shouldnt go without sex for too long ;) have a great evening with your mulled wine, sounds delicious!
Woohoo for your nudey weigh in - you have worked so hard, the results are sure to continue. Good on your for mentioning the sex thing too - i've been a bit shy to talk about it in my blog but I'm sure everyone is in agreement on that one! I am certainly glad to here that DH is seeing the benefit in being a supportive partner ;-)
I hadn't heard of how people celebrated Yule but with all that sweet and spicy wine, it sounds like it should be a national holiday! (no disrespect intended!)
Thanks for the recipe, we have some mead at home, another alcoholic beve to have on a hot day (think warm apple pie... but not like the movie!)
Keep up the good work chic, will catch up with you on Saturday.
Woohoo on your weight! No wonder you feel more sexy. My special estra ingredient for mulled wine - add some green ginger wine. Adds some spiciness and makes it extra warming.
You are so close to your target weight now. Must feel really great to continually see those scales moving downwards.
And as for sex....go get em girl!
