Just thinking, my PT gets back from holidays and I have an appt on Monday - haven't been to the gym once since she left... oops. I feel a whipping coming on.
One of my kittens mangled my arm today. He escaped from the enclosure and I went and got him from next door. Just as I picked him up the neighbour came bursting out their front door. The cat panicked, dug his claws into my arm… and I now have a 10cm long really deep scratch - almost needed stitching.
I'm painted in Betadine - very attractive - and it's as sore as ****.
How's this related to weight loss? Put me right off being able to eat dinner - that's how!
muscle burns fat
the bigger the muscle the more fat it burns
or so my trainer says
my trainer is on holidays for a month so i froze gym for a month
went for almost 2 hour walk to day maybe... not sure left after "ready steady cook" and got home at 5pm but how long it took me to get ready after ready steady cook and how long the chemist took take away from the 2 hours
i reckon freash air will have fixed my baby better than the drugs i bought for her
my weigh in is on thursday.... only half confident about it and wont be able to "weigh in" til i get home from my parents place, we are staying there the night after we go to the movies and dinner for our wedding anniversary, kinda really looking forward to it
pity i know benji too busy to have bought me/made me a pressie i am going to cut out picture of loveswing i want from kmart and tell him to just tell me he is going to buy that and that will be awesome
i made him white chocolate with raspberry lollies in it and on the wrapping i wrote the words to the song we walked down the aisle to "you're just too good to be true" he is soppy he should like it.... he will definately like the choc
Yesterday was another good day. Ate well and went for a 40 minute walk. Plan for today is to eat well and go to the gym for weights and 20 minutes cardio in between my two jobs.
Went to the stoopidmarket this morning and bought a massive bunch of red globe grapes and a box of bircher muesli and a punnet of strawberries I'm determined to eat more fruit as it's something I've never eaten enough of. A lot easier when things are in season

Just popping in ladies to wish our Ani a very Happy Birthday! Hope you have an awesome day!! I'll even let you have my slice of cake!
I know I have been somewhat elusive here, I have a lot of crap happening just now and it feels like everything is upside down! My weight-loss is downside up, up, up!
But I have been following your progress! And most of you seem on top of the weight loss battle! How good is that for this time of the year?
I have to go away for a few days from today. You won't miss me much because I am never here! But I figured I should say something anyway.
How is Kylie going?
Ok, gotta run. When I get home, I'll make more of an effort! 2008 is going to be my year - and weight-loss is going to be right in focus!
i just sneaked peaked weigh in and not cool seems i put on.... but not official til tomorrow and heaps can happen in one day
baby coughing all the time so i may have to postpone swimming lessons so that is annoying and i have a headache... hmmm
hi lindor! hope everything that is happening for you settles down or works out soon...
hi julia i cant wait til i stop using imcomplete kitchen as excuse for not having good food in house, we love fruit here too and i guess it would be great for baby for me to blend some up for her - then i eat left overs yummo
hi gen how did yougo at the gym? hehehe you make up for not going for ages?
Happy anniversary Kel. What number is it? We recently had our second.
I had a sneak peak at my weight this morning and afer all the walking and good eating I've put on 800g since last Friday. DOH'. I have no idea what's going on. Oh well, I'm not going to let it defeat me. I'll just keep plodding along and see what happens this Friday.
Lindor. You sound a little defeated at the moment. Try not to let things get you down. Chin up.
The fruit at the moment is just wonderful Julia. All those mangoes, peaches, nectarines and plums. I love summer! You should try making a big bowl of fruit salad and have it in the fridge for whenever. I like it with vanilla or natural yoghurt. Mmm might have to make some myself.
hey hey
cute kids barb!
it is wedding anniversary number 2, we had our "three years since we met" anniversary in september
for anniversary benji worked his arse off all day so that he could bring my car home to me!!! my precious bertina beetle is back!! i've been missing her so bad (she is a purple new beetle coolest car in the world - and i ran over a traffic island which is not cool for low car) anyhow he brought it home with a red rose on the seat for when we went to dinner and movie, he is so great
sneaked peaked again today at about lunchtime and was back to ticker weight so hoping tomorrow will be at ticker weight again and then tell myself that whipped cream and apple pie does not equal weightloss.....
Three days down, two to go. Working days and nights is fine so far, I'm feeling a little tired but nothing I can't handle. My painful back is the thing that's killing me. I'm taking ibuprofen and putting heat on it but it's still really sore. Off to the physio for me I think.
Ate well yesterday - had lots of fruit - and went to the gym and did my weights followed by 20 minutes of cardio.
Feeling positive about my progress this week. Hope everyone else is doing alright too
I've done it again. After saying I won't let it defeat me, I did. I think it all comes back to the whole all or nothing attitude. "Looks like this weeks a write off so why bother." I wish I could beat this.
Kel our anniversary was #2 too. We've been together 12 years though, got married on our tenth "been together" anniversary. I love those new volksies too!
Why'd you get a tetanus shot Ani? Not a nice gift to yourself!
Julia you sound like your so in the zone!
It's going to be a scorcher here today, and horribly windy too, so no walk for me. I'll go and do a couple of laps of the shopping centre instead, least its airconditioned!
One of my cats mangled my arm the other day when he was in a panic - you couldn't call it a scratch, it's way too deep for that. The whole inside of my forearm is gouged - thus the tetanus shot.
It's tough to get past the 'all or nothing' way of thinking. I only manage it by literally taking things one day at a time. I set my goals in the morning, then promise that I will get as close to them as I can - then set about doing it.
I don't always make it, but I don't get into the cycle of beating myself up on those days when I overshoot the goal. I just get back into it the next day.
You can do it Barb. It's not easy - but it's definitely worth it.
and a box of bircher muesli 
But I figured I should say something anyway.
