Day 10 weigh in day - another bead!

Hi,

I've been a bit remiss in my blogging but I have been very good in my eating and am proud to report a 1.1kg loss which brings my weight down to 117.9 and more importantly, I've earned another bead - yay!

Things that have happened since I last blogged...

I have been given the ok from my physio to do a bit more exercise but still no running. I've been to the gym a few times, twice yesterday and my back is a bit sore today.

My trainer and I set down some goals based around my upcoming travels. I will be going to India on October 15 and my target weight for this is 114kg. Then we're off to Dubai at Christmas and my target weight is 104 with the return weight of 102. So that means I'll have to be conscious of the amount of food I'm eating plus the I will need to exercise while I'm away - not a bad thing on the whole. In March, we're off to Germany for three weeks and my target weight is 92. It made me feel good to set goals, I need to be focused to reach them.

I went to a hen's night on Saturday which started with afternoon tea. I was pretty good - drank soda water all night but did nibble a bit too much. The hen herself was incredibly entertaining, my favourite part of the night was when she had to get up on the couches at the cocktail lounge and dance for two minutes... she got more and more inventive as the dance went on and we left her up there for a full five minutes by which stage she was into the full leg kicks! Mmm maybe you had to be there but trust me it was pretty funny at the time.

Sunday we had brunch at our friends and goddaughter's place. I had my strawberry bruschetta which was a hit and then we stayed on for a quick lunch which was also very healthy. Stu and I did the shopping in the evening but we were well set up for the week to come.

Monday and Tuesday flew by in a haze of work but I am proud to say I have been following the food program and it's getting easier - I only had to have my tea with two sugars after lunch yesterday as the sweet cravings have been lessening.

So it comes to this morning, Wednesday morning, the sun is shining, I'm trying to make my breakfast smoothie - must either warm up the frozen berries before trying to pulverise them with a stab mixer or buy a blender - not working very well. I'll have a shower and then give it another shot.

Enjoy your Wednesday, there will be photos of the new bead up tomorrow!

Tiff
