Early morning walk!

Just for fun I decided to go for a walk on this lovely Sunday morning. I woke up at 7:30, and instead of wallowing in bed like I usually do, I got up off my arse and went for a 35 min walk. And I decided that I would wear my heart rate monitor just to see what sort of rates I was gonna get.

I ended up with an average heart rate of 140bpm. Top rate was 168, and that was when I was walking up a smallish hill. I am still very very unfit... so if I can get 3 or 4 walks a week, hopefully in 2 months i will begin to feel much fitter.

Unfortunately I have a sore achillies...and I'm worried that it is going to get worse the more I walk. I am wondering if it is a bi-product of being fat....so We'll see once I start to drop some kilos. I have been seeing a chiro, but think I might have to go to see someone else if it doesn't start to get better soon.

I went out for lunch yesterday, and had an entree vegetarian pasta.... and I was so proud of myself as I usually have a full serve, and I was happily full once I was finished. I met up with my best friends aswell... one of them has been overseas for the past 2.5 years, so I was awesome to see her. And my other mate had a baby 6 months, so it was great to be able to see her as a mum in action, and have a cuddle of little Jasmine.

Valentines day was a non event for me and my partner. I'm not in a very good space with him at the moment.... and its really starting ot get me down. So being able to stick to WW through the next few weeks is gonna be tough, cause I also have to make some tough decisions.

ANYWAYS.... onyto a happy Sunday (I hope!!)
