Oops, I just posted another thread about me wanting to lose weight, but it looks like I should really just join here instead! Am I too late? I'll PM my measurements tonight Trillian.
well girls, i had a few drinks last night, so had a very well lets say lazy day today, feeling the effects, so back on track tomorrw, heading to the gym in the morning me thinks.
oh when i feel like a choccy hit, i buy the little packs of turkish delights, much less fat than regular choccy, so if i need a pick up i go for one of those, but just have to make sure the kids dont eat them all.
Tacos are on the menu for tea tomorrow night. What do you girls think? Healthy or not? I'd be using one of those taco kits. If I use lean mince surely they'd be okay???
Well girls I don't know what I am more excited about... Ovulating tomorrow (or the next day) OR this challenge!
Chrissy I have been having a glass or 2 of red wine ever sinice AF arived 19 days ago! BUT after tonight I will not be having any because hopefully I will be UTD after ovulating tomorrow YAY.... I know alcohol can lower fetility but bloody hell after ttc since Sep last year I have had Plenty of alcohol free days including my wedding night AND our 4 week honeymoon to Phuket!!! SO what the heck I deserve it
sterla tacos are very low cal... I am a walking calorie counter girls so please just ask I make them with refried beans instead of mince meat (being vego) but it woudl be about the same anyway... go easy on the cheese and I use natural yogurt instead of sour cream YUMMMO infact I sugested to DH earlier that we have them for dinner YAY
I have a goal - June 30 is my deadline to reach MY goal weight... I'm on Weight Watchers and I've lost 9. 7kg (with 4.9kg to go!) since NY (I participated in the NY body transformation challenge!). 7wks to go!!!
Somedays I lose motivation, others just self control and somedays both...
I hear ya on the sore butts - mine feels all bruised where the seat was, serves me right for taking so long to get back on it. I was mortified at my level of 'non' fitness, I struggled to do half an hour.
Well I made stroganoff last night, but instead of serving it with rice or pasta, I served it on a bed of green beans I still ike it that way, DH was none too impressed - too bad for him.
Mmmm, Mexican . . all this talk about food when I am hungry, sheesh. I can't comprehend only wanting to eat out of necessity - food is delicious, if we weren't meant to enjoy it God wouldn't have made such yummy variety - we'd all just eat porridge or pellets. I don't have that problem though, my DH has always been chubbier than me (And is a BAAAD influence when I'm trying to diet!), but he can lose it a lot easier too, makes me cranky that he can do the same workout as me and burn so many more calories just because he is a man!
We just had chilli con carne for dinner and it was yummo!!!
I'm not sure how it was on the health radar but we both had lots of rice and less of the mince/kidney beans/sauce. I just used and old el paso jar then added a a can of kidney beans. It was soooo delish and considering it was basically mince and kidney beans i figure it can't have been toooo terrible!!
We did an extra block tonight (our walk) and boy it felt good. Gosh I am shocking with inclines, so unfit. You know though, I had a such a good pace and rhythm (breathing) going and then DF made me laugh and I was poooped!
Anyway else pushing 20kg when they're walking?
we also got some bottled water today so i can get back on the wagon with that. the headaches are killing me, making me really tired, but at least i am not detoxing from daily caffeine dose in the form of Mother energy drinks like my DF
OK - I've sent my measurements through to Trillian ... I am planning on getting a WII / fit with my k-rudd money if/when it comes!
Didn't see this thread until this evening ... ahh well ... funnily enough I had already started a water challenge! I have a couple of 750ml tupperware drink bottles and aim for 2 of them / day. Exercise is the hardest for me, we have so many hills around here ... but will aim for lunchtime walks @ work!
I was out all day yesterday, had to visit an old boss of Dh that has cancer...and we ate Maccas on the way home!
Buuuuuut, today as soon as MIL took my eldest, I literally threw my youngest in the 3 wheeler and walked to Aldis to get a few grocery items and it took, including the 10 mins I was in the store just under 2 hours. so basically I hope I have walked off my butt!
We just signed up with Famers Direct and this arvo we have our first vegie box arriving...delivered to our door. Can't wait. Not only will it save us time and money (by not buying crap we don't need), we will have super fresh AUSSIE grown F&V.
Have been keeping up with my water which i find really easy to do. Just need to cut back on the coffee but my goals this week is to move more. Next week, on top of moving more I will stop nibbling when I cut the kids dinners up, stop eating the crusts I cut off DS#2 toast, stop licking the serving spoon. Does not sound like much but over a week, it will add up...namely on my butt and thighs!
Mothers day - I have requested fresh seafood! Yummo! Hope everyone sticks to their plans / goals over Mothers Day!!!! hint hint girls.......
Okay, off to tidy up outside.
Turkish - Love your location! I really should upgrade my membership but can imagine what DH would say. Meh!!
