This week has been an interesting one. The kids are back at school and in the uninterruptedness ( ?? ) I’ve got a few things crossed off the list.
On the sugar free and exercise front .. I’ve done a fair amount of NOTHING!! Unless you count a boxing circuit, balance class and doing a few push ups and squats with my clients as I’m training them .. you know, I don’t want them to feel they are the only ones doing anything!
To follow up on the sugar free and exercise front .. I’ve also done a fair amount of thinking about it.
Now that it’s been a week since my sugar free challenge finished, my brain has clearly taken this into consideration and should there be a chocolate in the house I’ve been known to make it disappear .. via my stomach … yes, I’m now confessing to possibly overindulging in sugar laden treats. This, however, was not my original intention.
Clearly I’m having a motivation and commitment issue that may will need to be addressed in the near future. I’ve read blogs, articles etc all about losing weight and I love it! Geez, it’s my job too! But I just haven’t been able to shake the “meh” virus, you know, the “blah” bug.
This afternoon I was catching up on some blog reading .. health and fitness blogs of course … and for some reason Jogaholic’s blog post today sparked some action!! Check her out here …
I’ve been putting off taking the updated stats for a while now ( it’s been 12 months ) … maybe lazy, maybe a bit scared they have changed for the worse! And the pics … well, I really don’t like having my photo taken at the best of times!! Let alone getting in a bikini for those shots that just are not flattering!
Well, I did it … the pics have been taken and measurements done and I’m pleased to say that there has not been a change for the worse! Phew!!
We are supposed to say something positive about bodies and do the best with what we’ve got so I’m even going to do that …
I think I’m doing pretty darn good for an almost 40 ( I still have 5 and a half months to go ) mother of 2!! Yay me!!
Now to sit down and plan how I’m going to make a few more changes. Not drastic ones, just some changes to body fat %. I’ll be happy with a kilo or two.
I could possibly be getting a bit excited about setting some new goals!! After my home made pizza and red wine for dinner … gotta keep it real hey!
