Ok so I am not that good LOL, the last few days have been quite hectic so I have not been able to post or I would think oohh I need to do that and then get sidetracked so it doesn’t get done.
The week was good up until Friday, I went out for lunch with a friend that ended up costing me 12 points, then off to the pub for a drink with friends and then pizza later on, means I totally blew the week.
Yesterday nibblies before dinner along with some a few drinks means yesterday wasnt so flash either.
The biggest problem for me is making myself exercise, I just can’t seem to do it, and i know that I need to and that it will get me to my goal, I just need to work out why I won’t let myself get there.
wow 3 days in a row, that is almost a record for me. I will fix up the links on the front page as well so people can find this, well maybe I won’t then I can write whatever I like LOL.
I walked to work this morning so happy with that, even got a small sleep in, I might as well enjoy it while I can, once the holidays finish the traffic will be back up so it will me longer to get to work so no sleep ins
Plan worked today I used a total of 17.5 points so 2 spare with 3 exercise added so a good day.
plan for tomorrow
B: bircher muesli
L: chicken and salad sandwich
D: curried chicken and rice
S: banana, nectarine
W: 2L+
E: 1 x 3km walk, i might walk home as well see how I feel.
I found this afternoon I had shin splints so didnt walk home as I don’t want to hurt myself and not be able to exercise at all, which is what happened last time. Instead of working up to a habit, I jump straight in and do too much and then end up not being able to do anything at all and then I have to start again. It just does not work, I have proven that time and again.
I have 2.7 kgs to go until I no longer have to pay, I am just
going to have to buckle down and get there, once there I jsut have 2 kgs to go to get back to goal, then I can take my time to get the final 3kgs off.
I have lost 23.4 kgs so far so what is another 7.6 LOL
2 days in a row, I am on a roll, LOL
Ok so today went pretty much to plan. I work up this morning and then rolled over and went back to sleep for 25 minutes, so that wasn’t the right start to the day but when I parked my car I realised it was only 7am so I walked to work (3o minutes) and was quite happy with that.
Food wise I am on track, I went for a walk at lunch time as well, only 15 minuntes, but it all counts.
Tonight is darts practice so that gives me an extra point for the day.
Plan for tomorrow
B: bircher muesli (3)
L: pasta bake and salad (5)
D: Steak, potato salad, coleslaw and garden salad (6)
S: banana and nectarine (2)
W: 2L+
i even drank my water quota today so really happy with that.
If I can continue this for a few weeks (excluding the weekend I am on the gold coast) I should get to my first goal in no time.
Catch you tomorrow
today has been an interesting day and I guess i have learnt a bit about myself.
hubby spent last night at his mums taking care of her, she has motor neurone disease and so needs constant care, his sister needed some personal time and I can fully understand that she needs that. Hubby is not the most patient person I know so this was quite a learning curve for him and he didnt get a whole lot of sleep, so he is already off to bed.
So what did I learn today, I learnt that I really do sabotage myself when it comes to what I put in my mouth. I think to myself i need to stay off the alcohol today, if I don’t then I am never going to get to the goal I have, and yet I still had nearly a bottle of wine, 2 bourbon cans and several glasses at lunch time, So it definatly time to make some changes.
Tomorrow is the day for me. I am going to get up at 5.45 and do a wii coach workout and then I will walk home from work for an extra workout.
The menu for tomorrow is as follows
B: bircher muesli with fruit tub
L: chicken and salad sandwhich
D: pasta bake and salad
S: fruit
E: as above
W: at least 2L
I will check in tomorrow to see how I did
Ok so it is the 3rd of January, and I know that I need to start posting here on a regular basis, so lets see how I go this time.
Of course I have realised that I need to update the front page of my site in order for people to actually be able to locate the blog, but then I doubt anyone reads it anyway.
I am off shopping but will be back to start my regualar DAILY posts ;0
It is probably a good thing that no one reads this with how often i remember that it is here.
I know that if I posted reguarly it would help me to get to my goal but I always have so much on.
So where am I at, well as at last week I was 78.3 which is 3.3kgs off my first goal and 5.3kgs off my WW goal. 8.3kgs off my ultimate goal, so that is where I am at.
Darts has finished this week which is good, it means I can concentrate on other things, and this will help me to reach goal. As usual I keep making excuses not to exercise, I struggle to even make myself walk in the mornings, and that is so easy, but that extra 15 minutes in bed is just heaven.
I will get back into my schedule from next week, the plan is from when I get home to 6pm is well being time, this incudes exercising, meditating or anything else that works for me, maybe a facial
from 6-7 is household time, where i cook dinner, any chores that need to be done and then from 7 till bed is when I will do computer stuff, watch tv, read a book, play darts or games on the wii
well that is the plan so we will see how i go. I really need to walk in the mornings and do this at night and I will be goal in no time.
And I will try and update this everyday with how I am going and when I am at goal, I will add pics of me before and after
Hi there,
I haven’t posted for such a long time, I sort of forgot this was here and i have been so busy, it is amazing how much I have to do each day, and yet I don’t seem to get anyhting done. I think Face book is a major problem for me, I spend quite a bit of time on there, I have so much more to do, i really dont understand myself sometimes. LOL
Weight and exercise wise have not been the best, I am working on it and only have about 5kgs to go so I really need to buckle down and spend more time exercising, I am going to start this week, Steve is away for the week so I don’t have to worry about what he is up to and can concentrate on me.
Tomorrow is housework day, I will be cleaning the bathrooms and windows mainly, but have a large list to get through. Whats the bet i dont get it done LOL
I am starting work on the new site tomorrow as well, I did some testing today and it worked exactly how I wanted it to so I am getting the URL tomorrow and will start setting it up, I am very excited about it.
I am supposed to be making to awards for webtown at the moment and instead i am sitting here writing this so I guess I should get a wiggle on and get them done.
have a great day
Cheers
Di
Last night we had a really fun time, we had some friends over for the first time and while I was a bit worried as I didn’t know them outside of darts, I am glad that we did as we got to see a different side to them and it is a side I really liked
It is always fun making new friends.
Food wise I was not so good, although not too out of control, eating cheese and kabana plus dip, with 2 slices of pizza. I normally eat 3 to 4 so 2 is good. I did however drink more then a bottle of wine over the night so that is not good.
Exercise basically equalled none, LOL but then I didn’t expect to do anything.
So for today what do I have
Friends coming for lunch, a bbq with salad and baked potatoes, bread rolls and wine
I am also hoping another friend comes over during the day, he lives in WA now and does not get over very often so fingers crossed is able to drop in. I met this guy the same night I met my husband and they are very good friends, so I have known him for 23 + years and he would be my oldest friend. which is pretty funny since the lady coming for lunch is my second oldest friend
I have known her for 20 years.
I still have some work to do on Webtown, but I will do that after they all leave as I have no idea when anyone is coming, even though it is only 9am, I want to get everything ready for when they do so that there is nothing for us to do and we can just have fun and relax.
The week ends so quickly, I can’t believe it is the weekend already and that satruday is already half over LOL.
Today I posted a 200g gain, which is a bit sad, but the good thing is I have had a week of no illness and I can finally start increasing my exercise YAY. not really yay as I hate exercise but I need to start incorporating it into my life if I want to have a healthy life, so I will start with coach and walking and try to also add the running in, pretty much this will be my program
Monday – am Walking, pm coach
Tuesday – am walking, pm C25K
Wednesday – Am walking, pm coach if I have time, then darts
Thursday – am walking, pm C25K
Friday – am walking, pm coach
Saturday – c25K
Sunday, sleep in LOL (and a coach session)
if I can stick to that then I will be much better off in a few weeks time. I only need to lose 5kg’s then I can stop paying and start using that money for something else. so it is really time to knuckle down and get to work on this. So far I have lost 20.9kgs and I only have 9.1 to go, I know that I can do this.
WebTown is now on break, I am about to do the final scores and send out the newsletter, then I have 2 weeks worth of awards to get done.
Felisa and I are going to go through each part of WebTown and shut down what is not used and then look at where WebTown will be in the future, potentially we will shut it down and walk away, it is sad that the effort we put in is not apprecaited by the majority of members, I work 10+ hours a week on webtown and when only 3 people reply to a request you have to think is it all worth it.
I haven’t posted for a few days and that is not just here, I usually post on a regular board on the WW forum but I just haven’t been in the mood, in a lot of ways I don’t feel I fit in anymore.
I took this week quite easy as I did not want a relapse of illness and so far touch wood I have been fairly well all week which is a nice change, now I just have to get my self in the right place with eating and exercise.
the earting part is hard as I have a husband who seems to want to sabotage my efforts and will try to tempt me to eat things I may not really want, but I eat because they are there. I am not blaming him as this is my fault and no one elses.
I have been really slack on the exercise part, mainly because I just can’t seem to get enthusiastic about it, in my mind I want to exercise, but I talk myself out of it.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions in how I can get around this I would love to hear them. (who am I kidding no one ever reads this LOL)
Webtown goes on break this week, I am looking forward to it only because I have not been enjoying it recently. When we started the members and staff were very enthuisatic, we all had regualar chats, now it is like a ghost town and all anyone ever does is vote. I even struggle to chat with the other staff members and I feel this is not a good way for a comp to be, so if this doesn’t change then I may consider closing it down, what is the point if it is no longer fun and the main part that was fun was chatting with other members, if you know what I mean
