• Life Just Gets in the Way

    That’s how I feel this week. Every good intention I had just flew out the window. I haven’t been sleeping. Every night it would take me 3-4 hours just to get to sleep and the next day I would be exhausted. Work is so crazy busy it’s unbelievable, it’s never been like this! And the…

  • I Was Right

    Weigh in day! I am up, but not by a lot. Weight: 210 Workouts: ummm. Saturday – Jillian, Tuesday – 4.5 mile run. Yeah, that’s it. Xoxo

  • We Could Live Beside The Ocean

    Following on from my previous music post I had a bit of reminiscing when Everclear’s Santa Monica played. It immediately reminded me of a hot day at the beach, with one of my ex-boyfriends and a few of his friends, driving around and singing it at the top of our lungs. I was still really…

  • February Challenge

    For February I have decided my challenge will be to hit a target of running 60 miles. It’s doable but definitely a challenge. It means I can’t slack off or skip running without making it up. No excuses! I will run 60 miles this month. It should certainly help out with the 9lb loss I’m…

  • My Lifeline

    Is music. I’m always incredibly amazed by how moved everyone can be by lyrics, a guitar riff or a beat. I’ve never met anyone who doesn’t listen to or like music of some kind. It is one of the very few things that every single person on the planet shares. It’s different for everyone, but…

  • Crazy

    It’s been a crazy week, which I won’t get into, other than to say we are hoping it will all turn out fine at some point today. I had a ‘free day’ on Wednesday, since my appointment went so well. I totally needed a day off from exercise because I could barely walk after Jillian…

  • Weighing In

    Weigh in time! This morning I was: Weight: 209lbs Workouts: Short walk on Sunday, walk & Jillian on Monday, 5k run Tuesday. Today was also my first weigh in with my doc for the year. My last weigh in with her, before my holiday in the States, was around 97kg. This morning I was 95.9.…

  • My Hamstrings Will Thank Me… One Day

    Last night I finally started working out in earnest again after recovering from The Stupid Flu. To kick things off I did a Jillian Michaels DVD, Burn Fat Boost Your Metabolism. It’s probably my favourite of her workouts. I made it through the whole thing, which is a great thing considering I haven’t worked out…

  • Weigh In

    Weight: 209lbs Total loss: 28lbs Goal weight: 125lbs Workouts: EA Active for the Wii on Monday. My goal weight from my doctor is 132lbs, but I’m using 125 because that puts me in the middle of the range for my height. My only note about this weigh in is that it was done in the…
