Small Victory

Cherish even the smallest of victories, 
for all of them combined will become the grand prize 
- Natasha Hurst

I lost 100grams and am very impressed with myself because considering the week I had food wise it is very surprising.

Let me give you a little summary...

Mother's Day Luncheon - Crumbed Chicken with Creamy Mash and a very decadent chocolate pudding and 2 glasses of white wine.

Lunch with the girls - Thai Chicken Salad with dressing (I forgot to ask for it on the side), lemon lime and bitters, 1/2 sticky date pudding and ice cream and Chai Latte.

Afternoon Tea Date with Glenn - Chai Latte and Lemon Meringue Pie.

Takeaway night - BBQ Beef Pizza (way too many slices)

Mothers Day Dinner - Golden Syrup Dumplings and ice cream

and...Homemade Banana and Zucchini Bread.

OMGOSH!!!  Soooo much food.  On a plus there was no blocks of chocolate!

As you can imagine after a week like that my body was well and truly screaming to be nurtured and so today I made a huge pot of Vegetable and Risoni Soup and it was just what I needed.

I also managed to do 1 full round and then 1/2 reps for another round of the following circuit.

Wall Squats (mini ones) with Lateral Raises into Fly's with 3.5kg DB's x 15
Resistance Band Russian Twists x 20 
Inch Worms x 10
Leg Lowers with DB Chest Press x 10
DB Air Boxing x 30 seconds

Today has been a biggie for me with helping Mum with an online test, 4 P/T sessions (2 Groups and 2 Solo's) and housework (catch up from not doing it on the weekend) and so tonight I am in bed feeling a little sore and sorry for myself but it's well warranted so I at least have a smile on my face as I feel accomplished.

Lastly I wanted to share a link to a photo shoot that I had done on the weekend by Mick Davson Photograpy (see the last 13 photos).  These were taken as part of a Photography Workshop he was taking and its hard to believe that they were taken with very little preparation and as part of a demonstration.  I could sit and be self critical in each of the photos but I'm not going to, instead I'm going to embrace them.  I am who I am flaws and all!

OK that's it for now as its time for me to chill in front of the idiot box.
