Welcome back Raupe!! Kangaroos Island sounds wonderful, i've always wanted to go there, and it sounds like you had an excellent time there I am very jealous and want to go on a holiday now! LOL.
SS_storm- doesn't sound too bad! You have to treat yourself sometimes! Mmmm, rocky road!! Yum
PRMG- I always go with the lower number! LOL. That sucks about your knees! What has happened to them that they are doing that? I am in agony at the moment too as my trainer is making me do 30 mins of walk/run intervals on the treadmill, my shins are killing me! I don't think i can keep doing it! I never had this problem when i was running outside, i guess because i stuck to soft surfaces only. As for Zumba, i read somewhere that an hour while burn approx 500-600 cals, so you can feel a little less guilty about eating whatever you find!
ZF- go girl on the bike! How about you just keep track of the time on your phone? Can you set an alarm to go off? If you are up to a challenge i would start with 8 mins in the morning and 8 mins at night, and then add an extra minute each each day until weigh in Make sure you stretch afterwards! Has your DH been on yet? Also, really important to be super careful with the kids around, whenever i ring the children's hospital their waiting 'music' is a big lecture about how the number one cause of injury in their emergency department is from home gym equipment!
AFM- had the most awful nights sleep last night. I decided it was time to try DS without his reflux medication, and i will not be trying that again any time soon! He only woke twice, but the second time DD wet the bed (we are on night 5 of night-time toilet training) but then from about 4:30am DS was awake squirming, back arching, crying and grunting. Poor kid I bought him in to bed with us, and then DD decided she wanted in as well, even though her bed is right next to ours! I chucked a huge tanty and stormed out because she refused to move over and let me back in and sat in the bathroom for 10 mins while she cried because i don't think she has ever seen me act like a 3 year old before... And DD's latest phrase at the moment is 'why would/should i?' in a haughty voice (and yes, i say this to DF and she is copying me...), which she uses whenever we ask her to do something. Last night i said its time to brush your teeth and go to the toilet before bed and she responded back at me very narkily- "but, why would i?"- Aaarrrrggghhhh!!! And this morning, i asked her to pick up some toys she had scattered around that are a choking hazard for DS and she said "why should i? You do it!". I completely lost the plot and said they were going in the bin and more tears ensued.
Sorry for the big vent, i am tired and cranky and need some chocolate! Thursday mornings are my only non-gym week day and i really struggle!
