Last day of feb today............

and week 3 of the 6 week challenge ...due too the earthquake good morning couldnt do the segement last week ...

Anyway as for the weekend well we had a pretty quiet one really, hubby had it off and is due back there this arvo.
Didnt really do much exercise, eating was a bit over the place..Really need too get that back on track again and "get my willpower out"...got out last nite for a 40 min walk really felt great...

Looking at doing the running of this week challenge every second day cos its not really working for me but if i put in some effort then that is a bonus right...I am going too replace it with some gym ideas.

Hubby and I have started having the weekly chats with the older boys again about how there week is going etc highlight/not highlight lol and it was awesome but still typical boys give you one word answers or a grunt/shrug lol..

So once I finish up here I am gonna go get me some lunch and then go have a bit of fresh air and exercise..

Well it's almost a week since I updated...

It's been a hell week for the people of not only Canterbury but most of NZ and some of our overseas friends/family as they waited for news on there loved ones ...Heartbreaks for everyone and they are predicting another one before end of March...No more mother nature please xxx

My experience was sitting on the couch and thinking my god the couch is moving, hubby was at the comp, so was thinking he was being a funny buggar then it happened again the earth moved. Was a long day fretting as my son had gone too camp as well (principal rung too say all is well and they will be back Friday lol)

Anyway, the week got off too a great start, did my zumba, a ten minute segment on tv and was doing my 2nd week of the challenge then come 1pm(Tuesday),life seem too come too a stand still with exercise and eating and I havnt really restarted it, hasnt helped the weather has been up and down so havnt got in my "exercise mode".

However I got out today and i felt great but went too do my running part of it and it bloody started too rain good on ya mother nature wrecking my plans lol...

However I had a sneaky weigh in and I am stoked I have managed too loose some flab too heaven hehe(not meant too be doing them till next week but couldnt help it whoops).. Anyway hoping the weekend will be all good weather wise and i can get out too do a bit of exercise :)

Its been a few days since i updated

Well have done my challenge fully except my walking part of it today, which is pretty good, have managed too get a zumba class in there as well so overall the exercise is going well.

As for the eating that has been a bit touch and go this week, but a lot better so I am probably sitting close too 80% of my food choices. Am going too look into the fitnesspal website that some of the girls in the flab too glam have suggested :)

Tomorrow is my first week of the challenge done and dusted , very proud i lasted but next week should be interesting indeed.

Biggest challenge for me right now

is eating and keeping up the motivation...Old habits are starting too appear so I better get on the eating right bandwagon again before the scales tell and show me something different...

So this week is too just do that... Huia you can do this!!!

I wasn't really looking .....

For a job atm but Friday I saw an ad in the local community newsletter and thought why not, talked it over with hubby over the weekend and he did his usual if you want too go for it speal lol, so today I did just that I phoned up and enquired about the job and said I would be very keen, I now have too wait for the parents/child too get back from holiday before we can go any further, slowly coming out of the "hermit" stage lol, but overall it was positive and I know its only part time but that suits me and my family, its not about the money even though its great too have a lil extra but I want too achieve my goals this year that I have set myself.Life is just a box of fluffies right now :)

Where its at right now

Hey, First blog of the year, I have had this blog but never written anything in it lol...Slowly but surely getting there.

Anyway just a bit of an overview on whats going on right now and how it begun. Last year Sept too be exact we had too do a medical for our life insurance policy...anyway both of our results came back and the concerns where high cholestrol(sp)/bloodd pressure and borderline type 2 diabetes if I wasnt too change things... Anyway I took it all on board and started trawling the internet for ways that I could change this...With that in mind I started getting my head around it all saying there is no way I am gonna have them health issues if I can help it ...So fast forward too middle of October and Zumba started in our town, thought great no one will wanna do that in this hick town, was I wrong lol..Wanted too go back for more that is for sure I did. Then I got sick and man that was so not fun wasnt till i went too the drs and she said oh you may have "Asthma", like hell I am gonna have that as well lol...Can you see a pattern happening here lol...So popped a weeks worth of antibotics and wahoo back too zumba I went. So basically i changed my diet as well as got regular exercise and even managed too keep/maintain over the christmas/new year time my weight and exercise not as much but I got some in when I could.

So it's now feb and I have had a bit of on/off bandwagon lack of motivation, but am determined I can do this and come October we are in a better place cholestrol and diabetes wise :)..At the moment I have sat at 75kg and put on a 1kg the past week but think I may have lost that kg, just need too stay away from all those tempting goodies. I can do it is my motto :)
