Wednesday Woes

Had a terrible night last night. Talia had nightmares and growing pains and Eloise had a dry raspy cough that kept waking her up which in turn she woke me up.
So this morning the last thing I felt like doing was sticking to an eating plan and exercise but I did.
This weight is not going to beat me.
I went to the chemist to buy some cough mixture so hopefully things will be quiet in my house tonight.
I might even do some weights tonight.
I am one day closer to my goal weight :)

Wohoo First One Down

I was nervous getting on the scales this morning. I knew if I hadn't lost any weight I would be disappointed and I know through this journey there will be some weeks that I wont loose any but today I wanted to start off on a high
So on I hop and YES Im down to 82.....
WOW what a feeling....I can do this only 22 to go

The kids and I did heaps of gardening today....I worked the rake really hard, even worked up a sweat...And made the shoulders burn.....But a good burn.

Well Im off to change my ticker.....

Manic Monday

Well those plans of mine of eating regulary today went out the window this morning when I heard Spotlight were having a sale!
I fed the kids, had a coffee and we were out the door!

I thought well while we were in town I might as well get Matthew his birthday present!

So no breakfast as such but I walked and walked and walked!

I ended up having a Apple Cinnamon muffin and a reduced fat cappacino from the muffin break, I am yet to work out the points, for lunch -come- snack.

But other than that I was REALLY good walking past the food hall, looking at the roast dinners and hot doughnuts....it was empowering to be able to just not give in to temptation.

I even bought my self some hand weights to help tone my arms and upper body....i have no excuse now.

So its a Ham, egg, cheese and salad wholemeal roll for dinner and a yoghurt

Weigh in tomorrow morning.....fingers crossed xxxxxxxx

Sunday Bloody Sunday

This morning started really good! The kids even let me lie in until 7.45am yipeeeee
The girls got out the craft bag and made some cards, things were nice and quiet so I thought I would do some Pilates - it was like a magnet....
I was surrounded by kids and not only mine, but also Talia's friend from across the road. Then Matthew decided to crawl over me, have you ever tried to concentrate on your breathing with a toddler patting your face and laughing because he find it funny that your on the floor!

I managed to finish the 1 hour session with all 4 kids in the room and then bam
the girls started to bicker - hold on school holidays don't start until tomorrow.

I was doing really good with my eating and then I thought I had to get out of the house- no lunch
packed up the kids and went to a girlfriends house and had 3 coffees with REAL milk....ohh it was good. So that was my lunch and afternoon snack. I suppose it could have been worse.

Back onto the scheduled eating Plan tomorrow.....
Breakfast
snack
lunch
snack
dinner
snack
and 8 glasses of water.......

I can do this!

So far so good, this is day 5 and I'm feeling good today. I even did a little exercise, my body is in shock!.
I have created a menu plan for the next few days to help me keep track of my points.
I also have to remember to eat regularly. I get so busy with the kids that by the time I get to eat breakfast its lunch time and the day tends to go down hill. Hopefully by doing this it will speed up my metabolism and I will actually see a loss on my first weigh in on Tuesday.
