My Birthday

Hi

Well my Birthday was Friday - felt old purely based on the number i turned lol BUT i feel better than ever so this made me feel great. I am fitter than ever in my life since being over weight for most of it and nothing feels better than that.

On my birthday i did my usual combat class, then off to watch my son at school in the cross country race with mum and then her and i went home for a salad sandwich. Then the whole family went to our favourite chinese restaurant. Yummo it was good. Had points saved for it and have lots and lots of exercise points. I even went to the gym yesterday and did treadmill, rower and bike. I really pushed myself and used my awesome fitness feeling to spur myself on.

I got pink tickets from hubby, wooo hooo. I love her. Can't wait for July. I will be wearing skinny jeans that night lol lol. Need a whole new wardrobe me thinks lol, bring it on.

WI tomorrow, it will be small i am sure, i think the Chinese might have done it even though i more than allowed for it, but it is all good. I will take whatever comes.

Bye for now.

Another Week

Hi

Well i havent been blogging much, just been busy.

Had WI monday and very happy with a 1.2kg loss. Takes me to 46.6 lost to date and only 15.5kg to go to goal. I am sure it will slow down, i am in no rush. I am enjoying the time and each day as i feel fitter and better than ever before. It feels so good. This week more than most i have been getting lots of comments so my shape must be changing.

Have been to the gym a few times, I did the usual tuesday Combat and PT session which was good. But on Monday i tried a new class 'Fat Burner' it was good, it wasnt as great as Combat lol but i liked it and intend on doing it each Monday instead of pump. It is good cause i feel bad rushing off from school as Pump starts at 9.30am but Fat Burner is 10.30 so i will take my time and go to that instead. It is the old gripe vine moves and walking side to side to start off with, then doing some step work (very small) but it does get fast paced, then later it is more grapevine etc with weights, i did work up a sweat indeed. I went the wrong way a few times and felt like a nong lol but i will get there in time.

Didnt go to Pump today as my knee was a little bit sore so i thought i would rest it from the Pump lunges lol. I just did 30 mins on the treadmill, 10 mintues on the bike and 5.5 minutes on the rower. I pushed it up a knotch on each and really built up a good sweat so hopefully it did something lol.

Now just home doing the washing etc and checking out the Weight Watchers boards.

Bye

This Week

Hi

This week has been good, been pushing myself at the gym, had a great PT session yesterday, it had been moved it to Thursday as she had to leave early Tuesday. Normally i go to her buggered as i do a 60 minute combat class then go straight to her lol. Well yesterday i wasn't buggered as i wasn't able to do a class first and i knew she would make me do something different lol. I had been doing the treadmill for five minutes to warm up when she came and said come on move to the rower lol ugh i hate that machine lol BUT i hadn't used it for about 9 months i reckon. When i joined the gym they showed me how to use it and i HATED it and couldn't do it, it just hurt and didn't call me lol. Well she made me do 5 - 30 secs sprints and it felt sooooo awesome, i loved it. I really enjoyed it and thought wow why was i sooo scared to use it. It made me notice how much my fitness level has improved. She agreed and commented how great i was looking lol. I will use it now for sure.

That is pretty much the high light of the week lol. Just going to they gym and the usual stuff around the house.

It is a good friends birthday tomorrow and mine next Friday so we are going to another friends house for tea tomorrow night to celebrate for both of us and just catch up. It will be good, it is just a barbie so i know what i am having lol. One friend hasnt seen me for six months or more so it will be interesting to see what she says. Then tea with my family Friday is Chinese, we don't go out often and the kids love it. So I agreed to go there but i will be very very good lol. But i will factor in some ice cream cake into my points that day lol lol.

Bye for now.

Monday WI

Hi

Well had WI today, very happy lost 900 grams, i had a big loss last week and i think this is just as nice. Took me to 45kg (45.4kg) lost in total so that is pleasing. Only 16.7kg to go it sounds sooo surreal to me to say that.

I went to see my dr today and she was still blown away with how much i have lost lol She weighed me and her scales had me at 82kg instead of 84.7 - too funny. I like them lol.

Before that i went shopping, decided to take a break from the gym, i went yesterday instead and needed to do a few things. I visited the WW lifestyle centre in Myer at Parramatta. I was pondering going for a session but i didnt at this stage have any questions. Maybe down the track if it starts to get harder as i get closer to goal. I bought the April WW mag and the points calculator and left happy.

Bye for now.

Tuesday's Gym Session

Hi

Well went to the gym of course yesterday lol, i felt sooo good i love the new combat release, it is hard lots of knees but it is sooo good. If feels good, you know it is working every inch of your body. I was sooo exhausted when it was over i actually said to my PT be nice to me i am buggered, i have never said that lol. I said no i am cool ready to go and she pushed me and made me do new exercises it was good. But i missed doing chin ups, i did a fair few squats using the fit ball with a medicine ball in between my legs, then for the last one she made me stay down low and hold for 15 secs, god it seemed like for ever, i did it twice then failed but she made me try again. It was tough but i know it is good for me.

I left feeling high and went to the shops and a mum from school was there and stopped me and asked me how did i loose soo much weight, she said she has been going to ask me for months lol. She said i looked great, it felt good we chatted for about 20 mins lol. It just feels nice people notice and say you look good. I don't rely on these comments but it is just nice to hear sometimes lol.

Had a rest today, i read with some of my daughter's classmates then did some paperwork and that is about it. Off to pump tomorrow, not as exciting as combat but i know it is good for you. I am going to try a fat burner class next week for something different.

Bye for now.

Today's Weigh In

Hi there

Very happy today, my hard work last week paid off with a 1.7kg losss, sooooooo happy with that. I thought the weight loss was slowing down lol, last week was good now this, amazing, but like i said the effort at the gym has paid off. I will keep going with it and see how it goes. I am sure it will slow down again - i am in no rush, i will take it as it comes.

It just feels so good to know i have lost 44.5kg and have only 17.6kg to get goal. Just sounds amazing when i started with 62.1kg to loose, who would have thunk it that i could do it lol - not me for sure but hopefully i will get there.

All is good, been to the gym for a pump class, felt good, then fruit and veg shopping.

Tomorrow is my love love day at the gym of one hour combat then 30 minute PT session. Cant wait.

Bye

My Week

Well i have blogged much lately. Have been busy going to the gym and trying to get into a routine. It is going well i think. I hate though rushing off after the school bell goes so on Monday i am going to try a different class - Fat burner, it doesn't start till 10.30am so i have time to spare so that is good. Will see how it helps, i am sure anything will help lol just means doing that instead of Pump on a Monday.

The week has been going well, i noticed in the week i was staying the same my water intake probably slowed a bit so i have been conscious of that this week and i made sure i drank 3 litres of water. Water is never usually a probably for me, i only drink water or cups of tea. Just it had slowed down a little.

I met my girlfriends Wednesday and they were blown away by my weight loss and made me feel so proud. Just felt good, we wondered the shops and went to 'normal' clothes shops as they are both small but it just felt good.

WI tomorrow, it should go well as like i said i have been pushing it at the gym and the clothes are feeling looser, always a good sign.

Monday's WI

Hi

Well i was not looking forward to wi, that rarely happens but the scales just havent moved and i was worried i would be 88kg for another week - but yeah they did move. I lost 700 grams to make me 87.3. Oh what a good number, i would have been happy with a 100 gram loss lol.

I was also stressed because a cyst on my ovaries was found at an ultrasound, but thank god that turned out to be nothing so that is great.

This has given me more motivation to go strong, been to the gym for an hour thirty today. I felt sooo good afterwards.

I am off tomorrow to meet two friends i havent seen in about 6 mths, i wonder if they will notice the difference lol. I am sure they will.

Talk soon.
