Saturday workouts

5.5km walk = 1hr...... 1 x step class = 1hr...... 1 x weights conditioning (PUMP but instructor is not Les Mills trained, so its not called PUMP) = 1hr.....

So after all that I had a nanna nap this arvo... I felt fucked. Especially getting up at 6, then pushing myself for 3hours. Hopefully all this working out will be damage control for dinner last night!!! But it was a YUMMY 3 course meal, and I enjoyed every bite.

I went up to the new house today with mum and dad so mum could check it out. We had afternoon tea with the current owners, and it was really nice... especially for hanging out with old people!!! My parents are in their 70's, and I'm the youngest of 6 kids.... But it was a nice arvo.

Food has been good today, except for a few too many snakatas...but I was HUNGRY after my working out.

Dinner is apricot chicken with rice, and then a nice relaxing evening probably watching a DVD.

Tomorrw is PACKING!!!! YAY!! Only 5 weeks till we move! so exciting!

Ain't it beautiful


This is a volcano in Equador which is currently erupting. I know that its not such a good thing for all the people that live around it, BUT.... isn't this a gorgeous piccy?
I love Volcanos... and would love to go visit one.... one day!!

I AM FAT

I knew I'd put on weight - the scales told me so. But I put on a pair of pants this morning - and it just confirmed how much fatter I have become. NOT HAPPY.... But its my own fault, so must accept the consequences of my actions.




Lingerie party went well. I spent over $100 on 3 items. I got my pyjamas, but told the chick the colour was gross & I don't like the flowers, but it is the material and the fact it is soft on the inside, rather than satin, and thats why I bought them. I bought a t-shirt which supports breast cancer and $10 from each sale goes to breast cancer research, and then I bought the gorgeous cami..... It was half price....



So I think I did OK.




Tonight is dinner at the poshy pub up the road. I messed things up last night with a pit stop at Brumby's.... But after the pants debarcle this morning - I won't be having any more slip ups like that. Think I'll go for a steak tonight - dinner is on my boss... so no expense will be spared!!!




THANK GOD ITS FRIDAY. I struggled to get up this morning, and had to get ready including making lunch and brekky in 30mins. I just achieved this... and now I'm finally at work after yelling at all the dickheads on the road that don't understand - GO THE SPEED LIMIT.



Anyhoo.... I'm here now, looking forward to a peaceful day.

Almost end of the week



So glad its Thursday, which means tomorrow is Friday, then the weekend!! YAY!!!

I went to Step last night and then to Volleyball. I love it when we have a good game of Volleyball, and have lots of rally's. It makes it so much more fun. Oh, we lost, but thats OK, cause the game was good.

Then off to the pub for dinner - I have a steak burger and fries which was yummy, then some of Andrew's pizza which was not yummy. So not the nest meal, but I really couldn't be fuckend to cook, and my burger was probably one of the better things on the menu.

Tonight is shopping night and sushi, and then I'm off to an Undercoverwear lingerie party. All I want to buy is a new set of satin pyjamas for winter, so hopefully they will have the ones I want. I'm not much of one to wear fancy underwear... I have a weird shape, and finding a bra to fit can be hell... so I don't go near them when I can't try them on.



Lingerie - Not my thing... but the Pyjamas - what I want!!!

Exercise wise its a rest day for me, and it will be rest day for me tomorrow too, as I'm going out for dinner straight after work, and will miss out on my pump class - taking my employees out for a special dinner to say thanks for working so hard in January. But Saturday will be Walking for 8km, and then going to weights conditioning... so a fairly active day, and of course packing.

Positive Weigh Day!!


So, I'm down 900g from last week. Happy with that. Now to keep up the motivation for the next 6 months and I should be right!! hehehe.


Monday and Tuesday have been good food wise... no major blow outs which has been great for me. If I have been hungry at night, I have gone for fruit... so wise choices for a change.


No gym last night - had my parents come over, but did a double class on Monday with Spin then Step, and I now know why I don't do Monday step... the instructor is SHIT!!!! I can't stand her class - it is so technical and involved that my brain is getting more of a work out than my body! So no more Monday Step. I would be good if there was Pump after Spin, I'd love that, but I'm not going to wait around for over an hour for a Pump class on a Monday.


So today will be step at 6 which will be hard work - a bit technical but not too much that I end up stressing about it. Then straight to Volleyball for a 7:30 beach game. Then to the Pub for dinner. Since its a pub meal it won't be the best, but I'm going to see if they can do me a burger, and NOT deep fry the ingredients this time!!!
I love this chick!! Had to put a motivational piccy in for a change.... Pink rocks my world!!

Manic Monday

Well... kinda manic. Lots on at work - I won't be here for most of tomorrow, I have to do a re-certification of a certificate, and that should take most of the day. So lots to organise for tomorrow.

So the biggest loser is back on - good to see some south Aussies in there for a change, and one of them is a well known morning radio announcer, so it will be interesting to see how he goes. So does this help motivation much - yes I think it does. (lets not discuss the 2 x chocolate drumsticks I ate last night though!)

So food is organised for today, 375cal for brekky, 300cal for lunch, 418 cal for dinner and 244cal on fruit for snacks during the day. That takes me under the recommended 1500cal I'm supposed to be eating. And 30 mins of Spin class at the gym where I should burn approx 360cal, and I might do a 45min step class after, but I'll see how I feel.

The biggest challenge I face is the after dinner 'I'm bored munchies'.... I'm going to try so hard to not eat tonight. And if a desparately need something, I'll have some fruit.

Fingers crossed I can get through tonight OK!! Today will be a breeze... its tonight I'm worried about!!

Happy Saturday

Started my day waking at 6:30am... picked up the man from work, then brekky, and then off to step class. The class was PACKED!!!! I have never seen so many people there. So we're waiting for our instructor... and who walks in... Psycho loud instructor from hell!! My head and heart drops... OH CRAP its gonna be a hard class.

And Hard it was.... by the end of it, my face was as red as my hair, every inch of my body was sweating, and I felt fucked. But, I also felt good achieveing psycho lady step class.... AND being able to keep up and do everything. The more she yells the harder I go.

So now, I've dropped the man at cricket, I'm back home, and about to start doing some packing.... I don't have too many weekends to go before we have to move.... so I'd better get into it... BUT maybe a Nanna nap first.... just for a little while!!!!
