Day 6, Week 2
I can't believe the end of Week 2 is almost upon me it has flown by so quick, is it really any wonder that weight can creep up on us the way it does. I wish it would dissappear just as quick!
Food wise today I did better, not by heaps but its a start. Actually, I had an ice...

Day 5, Week 2
Fridays are always so full on and today was no exception. I seriously did not get to stop and have a proper break until about half an hour ago and it is now 10.30pm.
It was also a 'Bugger the Exercise!' day for me which I am kind of feeling guilty about but also not as I know that I would of burnt off some calories...

Day 4, Week 2
I DID IT!! I didn't think I had the motivation to do it but I did and now although I am sitting here with a face as red as a beetroot and my clothes sticking to me as if it was a stinking hot 40+ degree day, I am feeling really proud of myself for not giving in to my own excuses and for kicking my own butt into gear. Oh, you have...
Day 3, Week 2
FOOD
Todays food intake was pityful and if it wasn't for the 2 teaspoons of sugar and milk that I have in my tea/coffee then I would of been lucky to even reach the 300 calorie mark which is approx 900 calories less than what I should have each day.
On a positive though, once I...

In good old Aussie tradition we headed...

End Day 1, Week 2
OK So I have been feeling a little shitty today and for the most part it's because of not being able to get an accurate weigh in result due to my stupid f*&^%$ scales not working properly. Mind you, after all the stuffing around with them I remembered that I had the WII Fit. Since I was dressed and had had breakfast...
Day 1, Week 2...Frustrated!!
WEIGHT
As per my normal Monday morning weigh in ritual, I stripped off, took my scales down to the kitchen setting them up in the same place as the previous week, placed the 2 x 3kg (total 6kg) hand weights on the scales in order to calibrate them and .......WTF?? 0.00kg?
So, I take them off give the scales...

Day 3, Week 1.
My body pulled up really well this morning after yesterdays P/T session which I must say I am really suprised about. I am guessing that it must mean that I am getting fitter yeah? Either way it means that I need to push myself harder next time.
Today's plan was to do a Home Gym Cardio session, however...

Day 2, Week 1....TUESDAY!!
Ok so my plan of trying to get to bed at a decent hour didn't exactly work out but today I still managed to do a Boxing Personal Training Session at the Gym and even though a couple of times it felt as though the world was spinning a little too fast, I loved every minute of it.
I did a 10 minute...
The Bigger Picture!

And so it begins!!
DAY 1...
I didn't exactly spring out of bed this morning with an abundance of enthusiasm but I wasn't letting my lack of sleep deter me from being proactive and so I weighed, measured, quickly threw some clothes on myself and the boys and made a mad dash to the Gym for a morning Zumba Class which was just the kickstart I needed.
I even...
Taking Back Control!
Rather than sitting on my butt whinging about the fact that I am uncomfortable in my own skin I have decided that there is no better time than right now to take back control and change my life for the better. And so with that said, I am embarking on the next phase of my life towards a healthier and...
