Busy busy

I know i haven't updated in a while been busy helping my sis move and hanging with the kids while school holidays were still going. BUT.... school went back today woohoo and to celebrate the freedom i went and did the river walk,I am rather proud i did it in 1 hour 8 mins and would like to cut back the time over a few weeks.
Last week was a bit of a bad week food wise and exercise wise :( but i still managed to lose 1kg and another inch WOOHOO. Must have been all the moving i did. This week back to the healthy eating and the exercising even though i am still a tad sore from the weekend but feeling good generally.
Seeing as it is meant to be raining the next week my exercising will be limited to inside but that is ok i still have plenty i can do inside and with Jack at school i can just do it when Lilly has her nap. YAY for naps i say hehehe.

This is just a short one got stuffs to do! i will update later in the week peace out homies!!!

Something a bit different

Today's blog will be a bit different from what i normal write about.
Since the moment my baby girl left with her dad and Saturday morning i don't know why but i have just been complacent not sure why.. Hell even on Friday i was a bit like that. Life is so much different then i thought it would be this year,it gets me down from time to time but this is clearly what my life is meant to be right now,but it has be thinking a hell of a lot about where my life is going to take me in the future....I'm not worried but curious really. When something big happens in my life i always do something big to myself like cut my hair off,colour it a crazy colour,get a piercing or a tattoo... I haven't done anything, but i realised a few weeks back my big change is my losing the weight finally after almost 8 years! It sure is a slow process and the past few days the slowness of it has been getting to me..... I am being patient though i know i will get to my goal weight i need to hang in there on days like well the past few days.

With everything life has thrown at me the past 8 years i am proud of who i am and who i have the potential to be as a Mother,friend,sister,daughter and eventually teacher. But atm i really need to focus on me and the kids... me with the losing weight and getting healthy and the kids well getting Jack sorted with all his appointments i need to make for him and possibly another huge change but i am not going to say what till i know for sure. Lilly well she is growing up so fast and learning new things every day.. before i know it she will be off to school which makes me want to cry! My kids,my worlds are the reason i am who i am and they make me want to be better everyday! I would be lost without them, but i hate that Jack doesn't see Grant and doesn't know that side of him,as much as they have done wrong by him you should know who all your family are! And Lilly i love that Mick and his family are still so involved but i hate the way it effects Jack,he is a tough cookie my boy i wish life was a little kinder to him. Although he makes me proud every day with being such a happy amazing child even with everything that has been thrown his way. Yes we have our ups and a hell of a lot of downs but i wouldn't change him for anything he is my special mini man.

I know i need yo hang in there with everything.. Today is just one of those downer days... doesn't help i haven't had much sleep. I know i have a good life, i have wonderful friends and family and so much support with everything that i do. Just wish a few things were just a bit different but i guess life is what you make it! I really hope things start getting better and happier there has been too much sadness the first half of the year.. It is about time happy stuff started to happen i say!
Well i am going to go it is nap time for Lil pil!

whoopy doo

The past almost 24 hours i have had a small amount of chocolate cake and a choc chip muffin(the muffin i had to have thanks to scrubs plus had been feeling like one for a few days prior). I know that isn't too bad just feel a little down on myself now but i will keep going!
Last night i finally did my yoga DVD which i haven't done in months, i couldn't find any of my yoga stuff so i improvised and i was so glad i did it!! I could do some stuff at the "harder" level and i felt so good after the DVD finished. I forgot how much i like doing yoga so i will definitely be doing it more often. I think just the fact i can do more stuff and more of the stretches has shown me how far i have come. One of the moves i could almost put my shoulder blade on the ground which is what you want to get to that was like and very big WOOHOO moment for me. I am really getting into it all from the fact i can see the changes and the weight i am losing plus i am loving feeling so good! I can't wait till school goes back and i can start Zumba.. well that is if i am not working but doubt i will have classes at that time cause most child cares have lunch around that time so YAY. Still loving boxing and i hopefully next week will be able to have a my first second session a week with Mr Mick!!
This morning i did my usual weekly measuring and i have lost another inch in a week which WOOHOO. Just hoping by the end of the week i have lost another kilo which i think with the cake and muffin might not happen but i will see... i am planing on jumping on the treadmill tonight. I have done exercise everyday this week except for Monday night. Was going to go for a walk but this wind would be too much for Lil just sitting in the pram so that is why i am glad to have my tready hehehe.
So here is my eating for the past 2 days.....
Wendsday
Brekky - 2 small pieces of toast
Lunch- Soup with a piece of bread
Dinner- 2 satay marinated chicken legs and lettuce,sprinkle of cheese and a small amount of salad dressing
Small bit of chocolate cake
Thursday
Brekky- 2 pieces of toast
Lunch- Choc chip muffin(i know very bad lunch)
Dinner- 2 small rissols,mashed cauliflower with garlic and philly and some peas and corn

Tuesday

Had a bit of a full on 2 days, Since yesterday arvo Lilly has been so clingy she has been screaming and crying... poor girl is either getting a tooth or is sick but if she isn't any better tomorrow morning off to the dr for her :( . With her being so off i had to cancel what would have been my first second session a week with Mick, but there is always next week my baby girl comes first. But with missing that once both kidlets were asleep tonight i jumped on the treadmill and jogged on it for about 25 min i didn't slow down and slowly made it a bit faster over time hehe the last few mins i made it supers fast and ran lol, that was fun i love having a treadmill at home i can wear my really daggy working out clothes.Was thinking if it isn't too windy and Lil is doing ok might go for a walk tomorrow. Been doing pretty good with cutting down with the carbs.... and after weighing myself today i have lost another kilo in about 4 days YAY!! Feeling really good about everything at the moment even with a few challenges!
So some big news i officially have a new job i sign the contract on Friday,i am looking forward to when it starts which will be the start of August. It wont be smooth sailing at first cause it is somewhat starting my own business but once it all starts happening it will get better! Also will help me keep fit and help lose weight so always a bonus!!

Lately

Most of last week i was sick so didn't work out i spent most of it in bed and not eating a hell of a lot. I was going to cancel my boxing session but i decided to go a head with it and i am glad i did! I felt so much better after it think working out that hard help get the last of it out of my system thank god! So after i the session Micka and I were talking saying i had reached my first short term goal so i set myself a new one which it to lose another 7-8kg in the next 2 months.... but with talking i am going to try and lose that in a month! It is gunna be tough buy i know i can do it and if i don't lose the whole lot in that time then there you go i will just keep going! I am going to try and eat less carbs so if anyone has any ideas of alternative things to put with dinner or lunch i am open for suggestions! I am so motivated it isn't funny!
I didn't do any exercise yesterday but today the kids,Mick and I went for a walk to the shops and back that is about 4 1/2km and very hilly lol,feeling exhausted but good after it though. Tomorrow think i might give my yoga dvd a go haven't done it in a long time might jump on the treadmill too! See how we go.Must admit i am loving the weather makes you wanna get outside and do stuff. Hoping the weather stays like this for all the holidays,means i can take Jack to the park to play and we can kick a ball around and such.

Ok so if anyone has any food ideas or recipes for me let me know i greatly appreciate it. Going to go play with the kidlets!
