Last posted

Oh dear it was a while since I lasted posted an entry - well I have been away this week and was busy last week so I guess I have my reasons!

I weighed myself this morning and have gained the 3lbs I lost a few weeks back! Which is really annoying! BUT I'm not letting it get me down - I'm going to exercise in a little over an hour and I will exercise daily now cos that's the way to lose weight! I really need to drink more as well!

Oh well, until next time

Another Week

Hi ya!

Here we are going to start a new week of diet and exercise! I have been thinking that it is probably better if I can keep the momentum up - to do 2 aerobics DVDs a day or 1 aerobics and 1 toning because if I want to shift these pounds I am going to have to shake my booty! I really should get toning too! I have until the beginning of August to lose at least a stone so thats 2.5 months away!

So instead of typing on here - gonna let my hubby on and then go and do some aerobics (despite having a migrain yesterday!)

Until next time...

WEIGH - IN

...but not until tomorrow! I hope I've lost more weight!

I have a longish walk to do today to get to a rehearsal for my G5 flute exam! I'll have to remember my pedometer Last night I did 30 minutes of aerobics - medium impact! so I was pleased with that!

Been relatively good with my food (why is food such an issue for a lot of people - including me?)

I've been wondering lately how many people read my blog(s)! Am I posting to nobody or do people actually read my writings? If you visit - fancy leaving a comment... GO ON it won't hurt ya!

OK until next time (tomorrow after my weigh-in perhaps...)

The Weekend and Now

Well, here I am again! I really don't feel like posting anything but thought I would keep someone up to date (not sure if anyone reads this or not!)!

OK over the weekend I ate 4 almond macaroons and about 4 choc chip muffins - I know I should have had more self control! Today I have hardly drunk anything (AGAIN!) but I have eaten fruit and some sausages and 2 bread rolls!

I'm feeling rather miserable lately - I think it's the stress of my flute exam and the feelings of foreboding! I have about 6 weeks to go and I really don't feel as if I'm good enough to take the exam! Oh well I've paid for it now so tough really! I HAVE to do it!

I have been putting together some crazy poems I've written so I can publish a book! Not sure who would buy them but someone might!

OK until next time readers

WEIGH IN

Whooo - weighed myself this morning and I have lost 3lbs - yippee! Need to get my act together for carrying on - I have eaten an almond macaroon tonight - eek that will be fattening! If I want to lose 2.5 stone I need to focus, focus, focus! I keep forgetting to measure myself! Going to do aerobics in a bit - have to let my dinner settle!

OK onward to next week - things I need to improve on though:

1. I need to drink a LOT more water
2. I really need to exercise more (I thought I had been, but looking back probably not!)
3. I really need to resist chocolate (even though I only ate a small amount - those calories add up!)
4. I have to check my portion sizes - I'm sure I ate way too much Cottage Pie yesterday!
5. Plan plan plan ahead is the key! My lunches went a bit off track (although I tried to make healthy ones!)
6. Forgot to measure myself last week so I will have to do that today!

Bank Holiday Monday 4th May 2009

Well here I am again with another dieting blog installment! Not too much to report - yesterday evening I did nearly 20 mins of salsacise and today I think I'll do some aerobics ! For breakfast I ate 2 gluten free home made American Style Pancakes, 1oz raspberries and 1x 150g pot of soya cherry yogurt! It was really yummy! Lunch will be a tuna salad with lots of salad veg etc and maybe 1tsp of Hellman's Extra Light Mayo - yummy - it's 3% fat so much better than the other mayo, although not as creamy!

One thing I have to do is drink more - I really am not drinking enough and if I carry on I won't stick to my eating plans!

I really need to do more walking as well - I stay indoors too often! (Hey they have a flautist and I play the flute - that was an aside...)

OK until next time - have a fab bank holiday - hope this afternoon cheers up - typical Brit BH it's raining!
