New Blog Look and New Beginning

Ok soooo its been months and months since ive written, i went off track a for a bit there, but the good new is IM BACK!!!!!!!!! YAY

Ok i started a 12 week challenge at the gym, we are up to week 5 and ive lost 7.4kg in 4 weeks! We get points for all the exercise we do and points for every kg we lose and points for every cm we lose :) OOOH and at my gym in the first month i lost the most weight! so they had a big congrats sign up on the wall! YAY ME! If u win the overall challenge u win $500 worth of travel, altho there is one lady who has more exercise points then me, but thats ok im not in it to win just wanna get this weight off and really get looking good again!

Not only that but ive joined ww meetings! im up to week 6 now and ive lost 8.4kg in 5 weeks. Im liking the meetings i find its motivating me alot more! so at the moment ive got very high motivation!! YAY

Im offically at my lowest weight in 2 years, so i must be doin something right :) and im really enjoying the exercise! also joined a gym challenge on the ww boards, so that will keep me motivated about gettin to the gym as well!

So all in all everything is goin great, and im feeling fantastic! i have to go thru my clothes again, as yesterday everything i put on was to big :P so out with all the big things! :)

I promise to write more often and not be so slack! i dont plan on losing this high motivation i have for a long time :)

Mothers Day Weekend

Lovely Autumn Tree Another lovely Autumn Tree Me, Mum and Sean

Me and Sean

Me and Mum

So this weekend i went away up to see my mum for mothers day! me and my bf drove up, and booked a night in a 2bedroom apartment with spa etc. I took her up a tv i had cause hers was broken and got that up and running, then went off shopping! i bought her a nice new pair of shoes, and then we went back to the apartment and all had a few drinks together, before heading out to dinner and cocktails :) YUMMMM then after dinner we met up with some friends and went out for more drinks, was lots of fun!!! Drank way to much tho :( food was good, i didnt have a problem with that, but the alcohol is gonna stuff me up :( all i wanted to do this week was get below 120!!! and wednesday last week i was!!!!!!!!! and i was soo perfect all week, exercised sooooo much and then one lil night of drinking stuffed me up! ill see how i go tomorrow cause i got my weigh in at the gym!!

Sunday we then got up and went and did some more shopping, had a lovely breakfast and then went for a walk thru the botanic gardens :) was a very way to spend mothers day with my mummy :)

I think i might head to the gym early and do a workout before my weigh in at 4pm and then my PT at 5 :) I did my new programme today, was awesome! was soo much harder then my old one and took me much longer, took me 1 1/2 hours and i burnt 2190cals :) was stuffed by the end!!!! but i could really feel it! i think its just what i needed, my old programme was gettin to easy and i was gettin to used to it!!! so if im not under 120 this week, then next week for sure!! NO EXCUSES OK!!!!!

Today i went to the gym TWICE YAY gooo me i got up at 7am and headed off to the gym, i got a new programme drawn up and then did my work out i burnt 1579cals Then had to go shopping for my mums mothers days presents! got home and i was stuffed!!! did uni assignments all day, then went back to the gym for my PT session tonight!!! There was a huge stuff up, i had an appointment to get my programme explained to me, but the problem was there wasnt anyone to show me, it was the girls fault who made it cause that was crossed out but she still put me in! So i sat around the gym for 30 mins, then asked my PTer to show me how to do it in my PT but she said nah ill cancel my class after ur PT and show u then! YAY she said i shouldnt have to waste my PT on that, since i pay more for it, and i guess she has a point! She is sooo lovely Anyways burnt another 881 cals in my PT session, so thats 2460cals burnt today!!!!!!!!! YAY no wonder im tired!

Off to Albury tomorrow to see mum for mothers day, taking her out to dinner and drinks saturday night, goin shoppin sat or sunday, shes staying in a nice apartment with us over night, then on sunday if its a nice day we might do a picnic at the botanic gardens if its raining well we will think of something else!!! hehehe

Ok well just wanted to write a quick note to let everyone know im still around hehehe. I been away for nearlly 2 weeks helping my mum pack and move, but am back home now :)

While i was away i was pretty bad foodwise, but better then last time i went away so im at least improving!! Missed the gym sooo much!!! BUT im now back at the gym 6 days and feeling much better already hehe i felt so yuk eating crappy food and not exercising, dunno how i did it before!!!

Still doin bellydancing :) its great fun and actaully a really good work out to! my abs were soooo sore after this week hehehe.

Got my weigh in at the gym on Tuesday for the first time since i went away. Last time i weighed in there i was 122.something am hoping to get a lil loss at least, but i dunno, i checked this morning on my scales and was 123.3 so we will see what happens in the next 2 days hehe!!

Gonna go for a nice beach walk soon :) the gym is closed :( i really hate how the gym closes at 12 on sundays, i think its really stupid :( but i cant complain cause beach walk is always something nice hehehe.

I think tomorrow me and some friends are gonna do some kinda exercise :P havnt decided what yet, was talk of walking at you yangs, never done that before, so we will see what happens there to :P hehehe

Ohhh while i was in canberra i bought some new sunnies :) YAY i bought REAL sunnies! they cost me $389 tho :P my bf only found out today how much they were, dont think he was happy :P hahah oh well, but they are soo sexy, ill post some photos later. They are Prada and i love them :P its really hard for me to find sunnies to suit my face! BUT how is this, we go to harvery norman looking at gettin a new bedroom suite and mattress and my bf found a pair of Gucci sunnies :P nearlly exactly the same as my new Prade ones hahahaha oh well now i have 2 pairs heheh YAY for me :P

Oh i also got my hair done before i went away, its the same colours BUT instead of alot of the bright red foils i got more of the darker colour and got a few bright red chunks, the hair is then layered over the red so the red comes thru the dark colour, i like it :) ill post a photo of that to :P

New Prada Sunnies :)

Me, slim member of the month???

YAY im sooo excitied!!! i went to my PT session on tuesday, and my trainer told me that my slim coach wanted to see me afterwards(even tho id already seen her that day). Soooo i went to see her and she said the owner of the gym wanted me to be slim member of the month :) :) :) :) :) :) i was soooo happy :P they took an updated photo and did measurements again(even tho i only had them done 2 weeks ago) i lost another 12cm in 2 weeks :) :) :) So anyways means im doin the best at the gym, outta everyone doin there weight loss program!! YAY!!! Everyone at the gym has been sooooooo nice! they all make a deal about how well im doin and tell everyone and they all compliment me and congratulate me lots, its an awesome feeling and i think its what i need to keep goin!! cause i dont wanna let them down hehe

SO i went to the gym today, had my trusty HRM on, and this is what i did:

25 mins treadmill, 6km, incline 7

15 mins crosstrainer, level 6

25 mins exercise bike, level 4

Info from my HRM was as follows:

kcal Burnt: 1455, 30% fat

Max heart rate: 181, 93%

Average heart rate:164, 85%

I have been goin to the gym 6 days a week, and loving it!!!! Have been perfect with food but this week the scales seem to not be moving much :( :( oh well it happens, but at least i know its not because i didnt try!!!!

Planning on gettin my hair done next week, cut and coloured, kinda as a reward for my first 10kg loss at the gym, since starting at the gym in early Feb i have lost 11.4kg, so im def feeling good about that!

I made it thru easter :)

Anyways so far in this easter period ive had no choc and no hot cross buns YAY but i got some gorgeous looking choc's, the best thing is they look toooo good to eat hahahaha I got some pics of my easter eggs that i will post later, they are sooo cute :P look way to good to eat!!!

Oh im soo excitied last night i got my first thropy on my HRM YAY the week before i didnt get it cause i got the HRM on wednesday and only started using it wed so didnt have a whole week, but this week i kicked its arse!!! i got 99% YAY its soooo cool!! i thought id be stuffed cause of the gym being closed alot this weekend, but i got on my treadmill for an hour everynight and it really helped!!!!! YAY oh that was until it broke last night i was using it and was about 35 mins in and BAM just stopped, and came up error now i try to use it and it just says error! anyone know what could be wrong with it?????

I had my offical weigh in today, but got weigh in at the gym in the morning cause of today being public holiday! BUT this morning i had lost 2.4kg this week sooo very happy with that!!!!

Happy Easter

I aint written for awhile, theres been heaps happening but just havnt been in a writing mood :P

Hope everyone has an awesome easter weekend :)

Im not gonna be doin much, staying home. The bloody owner of the house we rent is comin to look at a piece of carpet that needs fixing today!!!!!!!! i mean of all days its a bloody public holiday! really not impressed at all!!!! I honestly dont even see any reason why he even needs to look at it, its easily fixed why not just get a handy man into to fix it!!! Anyways Sean was gonna go away for easter to his dads but i dont really wanna go, i have my assignments to do, and if i go away they will never get done! I dunno if he is still goin or not, have to wait and see.

I sooo wanna go to the gym today, BUT its closed :P so im trying to get the motivation to go for a walk at the beach hehehe but since this arsehole aint comin to around 5 this afternoon that could be a problem :( such a pain in the ares AARRGGGGHHHHH

Anyways weight loss is goin good, ive been really good, been goin to the gym 6 times a week and have been having decent losses, so im pleased with that :) I got my HRM which by the way is awesome!!!! i love it, it really helps push me that lil bit more at the gym, and i know how many cals i burnt etc so its really handy :)

Anyways best be goin to get some of this uni stuff done, HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE

Weekly Weigh In

So this week i lost 0.6kg, and i know its a loss but im kinda disappointed!! I mean i didnt do anything wrong, i was perfect with my food and went to the gym 6 days this week. I mean im happy with any loss but i thought since i put in the extra effort this week id get a lil bit more, even 1kg or something, but oh well. See how we go next week i guess. I certainly wont be giving up that easy!!!

I got job interviews tomorrow, 1 is working in banking at ANZ and the other is a foriegn exchange officer at the airport. Both would be really good for me, but im still finishing up uni so im not in any hurry to have a job nor do i really need a job so if i dont get them then thats cool, BUT if i do get them then YAY good for me :P

Didnt go to the gym today, cause it was only open 10 till 1 and being a public holiday i find it always sooo busy!!! So got my PT session tomorrow at 5 and my gym weigh in after that, hopefully i can lose a lil more by then :) OOOh and hopefully tomorrow ill get my Polar F11 :) so cant wait to try it out hehehe

Its so hot here today, I was gonna for a walk at the beach, but think i might wait till a lil later but it will be just as hot then, last night at midnight it was still 30 degrees :( thank god for air con hehehe Okies i better go hang out the washing, in this heat that will be a work out in itself :P

Ok so its been awhile since i posted, but i lost 1.4kg last week, or 2.1kf according to gym scales but im only counting mine! I have my weigh in again tomorrow :) and weigh at the gym tuesday(cause of the public holiday).

Anyways i have a problem with blogger, i wanna update my graph at the bottom of my page but when i go to layout, it only loads the top half of the page so i cant scroll down that far. Ive been trying for a week now!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone else have this problem????? its annoying the hell outta me!!!!!!!

Im still at the gym, goin 5 to 6 days a week :) am loving it!!!! Bellydancing is goin great as well, we only got 1 or 2 weeks before the break for easter. Back at uni, got 2 assignments due before easter which i havnt started :( :( :( :( :( oh well!!!!!!

OOOOOOHHH i bought a new HRM!!!!! i probably shouldnt have, as i cant really afford it but thought well stuff it why not :P sooooo i got a polar F11 pink fizz hehehe i dont have it yet cause i only ordered it on friday night, and with our public holiday monday i probably wont get it till at least tuesday! here are some pics tho its sooo pretty, im sooo excitied, i already downloaded and read the whole manual basically haha cant wait to get it!!!!!!! It can do some awesome stuff!!

Anyways Im off to get some lunch, Sean is goin to get macca's but i said no thankx ill just make myself something at home :) HOW GOOD AM I!!!!!!!!!! YAY YAY YAY Ill update tomorrow after i weigh in, then again tuesday after gym weigh in :P
