Day 203 - a quick trip up the hill

Bee coz I....got an invite to the movies I had to make a quick trip up the dreaded big hill so I could get back in time. This picture does the hill no justice but if you look at the size of the people going up the path to the right you can sort of tell how steep it is.
Anyway I made it to the movies with seconds to spare! It was an ok movie but it was more fun watching Jorja she did so well and she was very tired!

Went for a hydro session and spa this arvo it was nice to just sit and chill (or boil)
A good day over all but looking forward to tomorrow - bee
Bfast: 2 dry pitas
Lunch: sandwich yoghurt and fruit
Dinner: diet shake and 5 prunes
Drink: lots of water

Day 202 - a beautiful day and chocolate

Bee coz I...scored little miss on this beautiful autumn day, we spent lots of time walking. We started of with a 4.5km walk with Leo the dog, Jorja just loves it when he walks along side the pram, she tells him come on Leo, and sorry when he runs into the wheel.

We then returned home and Jorja had an early lunch then a huge sleep 2hrs 45mins to be exact.

I fixed Billy and myself lunch and after I had eaten my lunch I had a overwhelming urge to eat chocolate, now I'm not a huge fan of chocolate, I don't really like it but I had to eat it! I have had a block of rum and raisin chocolate on my side draw since September, the weekend before I started my health kick.

Well I ate 3 of those rows! I enjoyed them too! Then I put the chocolate in a zip lock bag and put it back in the draw, binge over, I may have been low on sugar??? Who knows.

Do I feel bad or naughty - No!
Did I feel a little ill about half an hour later - Yes!

Then Miss J, aka sleeping beauty awoke and we went on a 5km round trip to the duck park, without the dog. Lots of fun was had and I tried out jogging with jorja's pram, it was not to bad except I was in my jeans. It was funny that Jorja was flapping her arms and saying weeeee, while I was jogging.

Dinner was uneventful but pre ordered from the fish and chip shop, good Friday so it's the busiest day of the year for them. ( don't panic I had grilled fish and salad!)

Went to bed to watch a DVD and had an early night - I feel like climbing a big hill tomorrow as my calves are almost better now!

Bee

Bfast: branflakes
Lunch: pita bread with beetroot spread and sweet potato spread and chocolate (lots)
Dinner: grilled flake and salad plus a yoghurt and apple

Drink: lots of water chocolate made me very thirsty!

Day 201 - you know your in trouble when ...

Be coz I....could hardly walk today due to sore calf muscles, I knew I was in trouble when the three little steps out the front of my house nearly killed me when I was going off to Zumba!

Not even two minutes into Zumba and I was re thinking the research that shows a faster recovery if you keep exercising when you are aching!

It was a killer, but we did some great songs tonight so I was glad I went! No Eleanor or Claire until next Thursday! Will have to do Zumba at home.

Went to the movies today and saw Arthur, not bad a few laughs but I found it a bit hard to see the humor in an 30 year old alcoholic trying to straiten himself out! Few good gags and helen mirram was funny!

Well that's it, hope I can walk tomorrow!

Bee

Bfast: cereal
Lunch: crackers and cheese
Dinner:as above (rubbish pic sorry)

Day 200 - more steps!

Bee Coz I....have made it to day  200, i feel very proud!  it does not feel like it has been that long.

to celebrate i went and did the 1000 steps, i think there is only 776 but believe me, thats enough. Not sure why but i chose to wear a rain jacket, maybe because it was raining? anyway about 10 mins in i realised the errors of my ways, i was drenched under the jacket. On the bright side it was like a mini sauna and i drank plenty of water so i was fine.

Mother nature likes to rain on a Wednesday and spoil Jane's and my walk, we foiled her today and went for a coffee instead, we will have to come up with a wet weather plan now winter is round the corner.

well i'm off to sleep now night night - Bee

Bfast: fruit and grainbar
lunch: chicken sandwich and yoghurt
dinner: pea whack, 3 dates 8 raspberries
snack: toasted pita with garlic salt

Day 198 - fun in the sun

Bee coz I....had a busy day with everything from shopping, walking the dog and cuddling a very cute baby to having a holiday in the garden and going on a walk up the local hills!

My timing was a bit crazy for my trip up the hills, I decided late in the day to go and do the 1000 steps in the dandenong ranges national park, it was getting dark as I got back to my car and I was not back in time for Zumba, although I assure you my legs had a great work out! Knees held up well and cardio wise it was so much easier then ever before.

Went to bed early as my legs were stuffed - Bee

Bfast: diet shake
Lunch: tuna and crackers with drinking yoghurt.
Dinner: pita pizza as above (photo was from yesterday's but it was identical tonight so I didn't bother with a new pic) and ww ice cream x

Day 197 - photo fail

Bee coz I....wanted to show you all my new coat I tried to take a pic in the mirror but as you can see it didn't really work but I posted it anyway to show you the pile of clothes on the draws that are more things to take to the salvo's and you know know that I hang my sexy wetsuit up on my wall as it motivates me. Although I woke up the other night and got a fright, I though there was someone in my room!

Had fun at the market today with Connie and steve I didn't buy anything just walked around looking that's why I had my coat on, it was freezing.

It was even colder at 7.45am this morning when I went for a run out side. It felt so good to be back on the track although I did miss the treadmill moving the ground for me, I had to do all the work!

On holidays all next week so I hope to get a few extra swims in this week as I slowed down my swimming to take up running and I want to get swim fit again! Bring it on!
