I'm Back!!!

After having no computer for a week I'm back. Boy I've missed my blog and the net in general, particularly Facebook. LOL :D

I had an okay week I guess. AF was due the Tuesday before last, but decided to arrive late, causing me to stress and indulge in things I wouldn't normally have. All weekend I felt ravenous and Sunday night we had fish & chips for dinner. But boy I enjoyed it!

So no weigh in for last Saturday, but I weighed in this morning and have lost 1.6kg in the 2 week period, so am very happy with that.

So Hot Today!

It is so humid today it is ridiculous. After getting home from the school run I put the air con on and threw dinner in the slow cooker (beef stroganoff). :)

I then did the vacuuming in my bra & undies, then threw on some shorts and did 30 minutes on the treadmill. Thankfully the air con unit is in the same room as the treadmill. LOL I then did the mopping and here I am waiting for the floors to dry.

I am dreading going upstairs for a shower as it will be like an oven up there. Seems pointless really as by the time I get downstairs I will be dripping sweat again. Might risk ducking downstairs in a towel and get changed in front of the air con. Thank goodness for blinds!! ROFL

Happy Valentine's Day

And hubby is fast asleep in bed after working until 4am this morning. No flowers waiting for me this morning, though I definitely didn't expect any.

We went to Sizzler last night for dinner with my family, before DH went off to work. I was pretty good with my eating. I ordered salmon which came with rice, and also had a big plate of salad. Though I couldn't resist eating a few chips and also a piece of cheese toast. The annoying thing was it was after my meal, and we were just sat there chatting, but then I started picking. In hindsight I should have got the waitress to remove any temptation I guess.

I have finished my 30 day challenge on the Wii EA Games Sports Active game. I can now either repeat it again at a higher intensity, though not sure if it will be the same exercises repeated or a variation. Or I can tailor the exercises to whatever I like, or pick one of the other workout programs. I will probably choose the latter I think, and still combine it with some walking on the treadmill.

I've Cracked 100 !!

Woo Hoo I have finally cracked the 100kg mark.

A good loss this week of 1.5kg. :D I'm pretty impressed considering AF is due soon.

I am now at the weight I was when I started back in 2005. Eeek!

Now that I've hit the 5 kilo lost mark, I'm going to book myself in to have a massage & facial. DH got me a voucher for my birthday, so I will be using that. I can't wait. :)

I think my 10kg reward will be some new makeup.

I got up this morning and exercised first thing, just to get it out of the way. I find with the family home on the weekends exercise can become the last thing I want to do.

Today I did:

EA Sports Active 30 day challenge - 15 minutes
EA Sports Custom Workout - 25 minutes.

Nothing much to say

Exercise for today:

EA Active Sports 30 day challenge workout - 15 minutes (another short one)?
EA Active Sports Boxing - 10 minutes.

The Morning After

After a late night (into bed at about 1:30am), I am feeling a bit sluggish today.

Had a great night out last night. I had lemon pepper barramundi with salad & chips. The chips were a smallish sized portion and quite thick cut, so I ate them. I also would have had about 5 glasses of water while there.

Forced myself to do my Wii exercise, and I'm glad I have done it. It's out of the way for today anyway. Now just to force myself to fold the washing. Ugh!

I may just have a few rum & diet cokes tonight as well I think. ;)



Exercise for today: 25 minutes of Wii exercise (EA Sports Active).

100kg

I weighed in this morning at 100kg. Was hoping I might have gone under the 100 mark, but a good consistent loss nonetheless. :)

I'm going out to dinner tonight with some friends, and pretty much know what's on the menu, so it's a toss up between a stir fry (which I've had before & it was okay), or a steak and salad. I'll be sticking to water though as I'm driving, so no calories from alcohol. LOL

I'm also going to try to use this blog to keep track of my exercise for the week.

Exercise for today: Half an hour on the treadmill (included a jog at one stage). LOL

Unsure

I'm unsure how tomorrow's weigh in will go. I ended up having a Weight Watchers meal last night, that had rice in it, so hopefully that won't have an effect by tomorrow mornings weigh in. Tonight I'm planning on a stir fry with lots of veges for dinner.

Today I went shopping so walked around a fair bit, also did my Wii exercise this morning. I was good and had a Coffee Club healthy choice toasted bread with turkey, cranberry & salad. Very nice! :)

I'll report back in tomorrow after weigh in. :\

Just for you Fiona! :P

I've been told to get my butt in here and post, so here I am. :D

After Sunday being my no exercise day, I've upped my exercise since then. I've done almost an hour each day, mostly 25 mins on the Wii game, then half an hour on the treadmill. I must say that I am over this sweating business. I swear I've never sweat so much in my life, since I've started exercising this time.

Monday night we had kangaroo mini roasts for dinner. They were quite nice and very tender, but best of all were 98% fat free. I didn't bother trying the boys with it, so they had chicken instead, but DS15 did enjoy his "roo sandwich" for lunch the next day. LOL

Last night was my mother's birthday, so more entertaining here. No bbq this time though, but roast pork, roast potatoes (cooked separate to the pork, so not sitting in fat), corned meat and salad. I had a little bit of everything, but passed on the pasta salad & coleslaw. I did have a small dinner roll with no butter. Seeing as my Dad had made the birthday cake, I had the tiniest of pieces, well it wasn't really a piece, more like some crumbs, but it was nice!

I've been trying to hold off weighing myself each day, but it's not happening. After a good result earlier in the week, I was disappointed to see the scales up again the following morning. Though I think it may be the fact that we had rice the night before, that made me weigh heavier.

Am planning on having sushi for lunch, so will see if that makes a difference to tomorrow's weight. :)
