Gym is getting easier

and I'm even enjoying it, and even looking forward to going! WTF!!! It make all the difference having someone else to go with and motivate each other. I've been 3 days this week, Mon, Wed, Thurs and going tonight and Sunday. Ideally I'd like to go 6 days but it's hard fitting it in around work and the family. This week it's been 30 mins on the elliptical trainer followed by 25 mins of weights. A Bodyvive class and we did Step/Pump last night. I'm easily one of the unfittest people in the class but am still enjoying it and it's getting easier. A bit scared to do the scales thing again, maybe tonight... DP has even started going with our neighbour as well. 11 weeks 6 days til Raro!

Ewwwwww!

I jumped on the scales, I did NOT like the number! 13 weeks til raro, and a whole lotta flab to lose. :( Think I'm gonna have to go on a fruit and water diet, and gym 3 times a day to reach goal weight. What a bummer *shoves choccie bar in gob*

I'm baaaa-aaack!

Lol, well we are 15 weeks away fom our trip to Raro and I'm still a flabster. BUT, one of my good friends who I have been hassling to come to the gym with me has just got engaged (YAY), and she's taken the plunge and joined Les Mills. We've been 3 times since Sunday, one workout, 1 body balance class and 30 mins of cardio last night. So we're gonna try to go at least 4 times a week. I wonder if I could drop 15 kgs in 15 weeks? I'm sure it's do-able. That would make me somewhere between 65-70kg (I'm too chicken to jump back on the scales yet). Could even rock a bikini in Raro! It's sooooo much easier to be motivated with someone else to go with, and it's become more enjoyable too. I'm actually looking forward to going to the gym, how weird is that!!!! We've decided to do a body jam class this weekend whch should be a huge laugh but looks fun - go the two white girls with no rythym! bahaha :O)

OMG I'm gonna be SO sore tomorrow!

So DP and I did Round the Bays yesterday with Kane in the pram. 8.4kms! Plus we walked down Queen St to the startline, walked up hill and down dale after the race to the afterparty, then back to the finishline and from Britomart back up Queen St to the car. So all in all I reckon we probably walked closer to 12 kms. Feeling very virtuous today! And the bonus - DP won a spot prize of 2 nights in a deluxe suite at the Sebel! Yay!

2 months since I logged in...

and 2 more kilos added. Gotta get in the groove to sort this out. That's now 20 kgs to my lowest goal weight! I have NEVER been this heavy before! But weirdly bought some new 3/4s for the gym yesterday from the Warehouse, and they were the small Active Intent size. Fitted kinda lycra-y things (show all the bumps). I guess it's cause I'm tall! I really gotta get my arse to the gym. Have signed up for Round the Bays next Sunday so that should be a laugh. DP and DS are coming too. DP says I need to buy some more 'girly' clothes, and to stop wearing his. Don't men get that you don't want to buy new clothes at this size, you just want to wake up skinny the next day!!!!

New year, new me

81.1kg this morning. So 16.1kg to go to goal weight. I figured that a 1kg loss a week isn't too much to ask, so I should be at goal by my birthday (May). And goal after that is to start TTC #2! Woohoo! So that's a good incentive for me to lose some, just to put it back on again.

We're going camping next week up north for 5 days, really looking forward to that, but not to being on the beach, just gonna have to grin and bear it, the bikini won't be making an appearance this year (well, just the top).
