It's a New Year!

So it's been a long time since I wrote here. I got to my highest non pg weight in the summer (10 st 7lbs - at 5 feet tall that's way too much). So now I weigh 9 st 13lbs, which is a big improvement. Ideally I want to lose another 22lbs. I'd be 8st 5lbs (I think) which is a realistic weight for my height and would make a huge difference to my health.
So a week at a time from now on in. I have a gym membership, I've been going at least twice a week in term time. I drop the girls at school and then fit in 1/2 hr in the gym, mainly using the cross trainer and power plate. I still haven't really conquered my food demons, so that is my new year resolution.
So here goes, again! 5 months till i'm 40, I want to celebrate in style!!!

Not a good day - AF due, eating sweeties :-(

Well I did Wii last night for 45 mins, I can feel it in my legs this morning! The hula hooping is pretty hard work. Will aim to do maybe a shorter session tonight as my Mum is arriving later.

So far, so good today with food, had more than my five a day already with salad and fruit for lunch. Not sure I'm getting enough protein going by the pie chart on the daily plate, so will need to address that - maybe buy some smoked tofu for my lunch later in the week.

I definitely eat less at home than I do at work, so am off next week, which should help, if I can stay away from the kids' eggs!

Sun shine!

Is very motivational!
Have had a good food day so far, plus doing loads of cleaning, so the exercise is happening without me having to set the time aside. Got A mopping the loors with me, she's loving it! M still not herself, so she's lounging watching Charlie and Lola, wee scone.
Wii tonight, I'll aim for 45 mins once the kids are in bed.

Summer here we come :-)

Pistacchio nuts

I had a small handful today thinking it would make a healthy snack as I'm back on track with my eating - or so I thought! Went to enter the details in the Daily Plate - 170 cals for 7 nuts!!!! Now I know nuts are high in fat, but wow, didn't expect it to be so high.

Ah well, so I'm more focussed this week having booked the holiday - woohoo!!!! I have to imagine myself in my cossie, and right now that's not a pretty thought. 16 weeks to lose at least 22lbs, doable, if I put my mind to it.

Blah de blah

I started listing food consumption again today, not a great day foodwise, but almost stayed within my calorie limit.
Cal has just switched on the Wii, so going to to half an hour to get myself back into ti and then off to bed as I'm knackered!

Sabotage!!!!!

And all my own fault. Why, why, why, two punds down antother pound up. Own stupid fault for being a fat lazy trout. Blah!!!!!!!!!!!
