Well I thought it was to good to be true! I've put on 1.5kg this week, not really sure how though. I think TOM's on its was so maybe that's the problem.

oh bugga barb. prob tom. cheer up and chin up xox

Barb I reckon it's TOM too - don't get too concerned, because you are doing really well :)

Hello ladies!

I'm back from my holiday, had a lovely time - did loads of eating and shopping and am now getting back into the swing of normal life. Boo hoo!

Haven't had time to read back over what's been happening here so will just say that I hope you are all well :D

Now that my holiday is over and done with I'm looking forward to getting back on track with diet and exercise. I have got a nice healthy stir fry prepared for my lunch today and have my gym gear packed and ready to go.

This week I will concentrate on going to the gym and eating good food. Next week I will get back onto calorie counting.


:twirly:

Where is everybody?

I had a good workout at the gym last night. It was definitely more challenging as I hadn't been in a while. I did weights for the first time in around 2 months and I was quivering by the end of it! After that I did 10 minutes walking and 20 minutes 1 min walk/1 min run intervals. Tonight I'll do spin.

Food was ok but I munched out on lollies in the evening which wasn't ideal. Goal for today is to not munch out on lollies!


:twirly:

I'm fortunate that I don't really like sweet stuff, so lollies are never a temptation for me! Give me a nice piece of cheese and a glass of red and I'm happy!!!

Its sooooooo bloody hot here. Was 39 in the shade today! And even though its sweltering I'm not having more that about 1.5 litres of water, I'd rather have a coffee. Stupid, when coffee dehydrates.

I'm feeling like a sausage at the moment, my feet and hands look lovely, not! Will really have to increase the water intake at work. They don't have filtered water in the new building and the tap water is foul so I'll have to bring some from home.

Goal for tomorrow.............DRINK MORE WATER

Unfortunately I've got a sweet tooth and a savoury tooth too!

Went to the gym last night and did spin - boy I'm sore today! Today will be a day off so that will be nice. Lunch today is beef stir-fry and dinner is steak and salad.

Goal for today is to snack wisely!


:twirly:

Julia nice to see u back :) I am a bit like Julia, sweet and savoury lol. MMMM lollies I love lollies :D

Lucky for me they've stopped making my favourite lollies!

Yesterday I went on a cruise ship visit which was lovely. I think that I'd like to do a cruise when I'm older, it looks very nice and relaxing. However, the potential to get very fat would be HUGE! So much food and all included in the price!

Ate pretty well yesterday but did have quite a lot of bubbly in the evening. More lollies too :o we've got heaps as my flatmate brought a massive bag back from the USA. I might have to ask her to keep them in her bedroom!

It's a beautiful day here today and it's payday so even better :D My goal is going to be to go to the gym tonight and do weights and half an hour cardio.


:twirly:

bubbly? i am so excited. I am not really a drinker but jacobs creek has bought out a sparkling moscato mmmmmmmmmmm

Ooh that sounds nice. I've been enjoying the new Lindauer one, it's a sav blanc and is rather nice :)

Today I am going to endeavour to get back on to tracking on Calorie King. Have logged my cuppa tea for breakfast!

I only made it to the gym twice last week so this week I will make a goal to go 3 times.

The weather is improving so salads are tasting even better. Now I just need to cut out the snacking!

Hope that some of you are out there and at least reading even if you're not posting. I miss you all!


:twirly:

I'm reading. Got nothing good to post though. Weight has stayed the same this week and TOM is yet to rear its ugly head so I still feel like a sausage bursting from its skin!

Well I weighed in today and am up 1.8kg. Not bad considering how undisciplined I've been but it's definitely time to get serious about losing some weight.

Today has been great, I've logged everything on calorie king and have eaten within my allowance. I went to the gym and did half an hour of weights, 20 minutes of walk/run intervals and 20 minutes cycling.

Best of all, I've managed to make it through the evening without snacking!! This is a MAJOR achievement for me and I'm very proud of myself. Here's hoping that tomorrow will be an equally good day.

I've been neglecting to eat breakfast lately and I know that needs to stop. I'd like to either buy or make some nice muesli and have that with yoghurt in the mornings.

Its so hot here. And instead of water as we all know is the best, I have been drinking tea, coffee and beer. Never really been a drinker but its so thirstquenching on a hot afternoon. Havent been doing bad things to my food, but prob should eat more regular. Its just to hot to be motivated to do anything. 35.5 here yesterday and today looks like higher. Going to mow the lawn this evening (if i dont have much beer)

Scales suck. 2 days ago said 76.5 and today 77.4. retaining fluid perhaps? I do feel bloated and its not even timje for george to visit yet.

Julia cruise sounds awesome. If I went on one i would need a passport yeah? what about a visa?

R u still working in travel agent? lucky girl to go on famils.
