BETTER LATE THAN NEVER ...........18th MAY 2011

I certainly didn't finish as strong or any where near like I wanted to do, but oh boy I HAVE LEARNT heaps.
To any one that is reading this blog....please don't give up, this program is amazing and it does work.  
I now weigh 96.1kg.....and I  haven't done any exercise or watched what I am eating for at least 3 - 4 weeks.  One can only imagine how much I would have lost if I had kept up the exercise and the eating plan.  I do plan on bringing in a lot of the recipes into my everyday life coz they are delicious plus oh so tasty.
I also do want to exercise and keep going, even if the eating isn't as good.  If you fall off the wagon, DON'T STRESS ABOUT IT, just continue the eating plan the next meal.  AND feel good that you did continue.  We are all entitled to make mistakes, and I made quite a few while on this change.
To keep you motivated keep reading the blogs and try and stay in touch as much as you can with other people that are on this program.
GOOD LUCK :)


When I eventually start what I shouldn't have stopped, I will blog again.


Cheers
Karen

Day Seventy Four - Thursday to Day Seventy Nine - Tuesday

Wow, what a big let down.... I really feel like I have let myself down badly.  So disappointed in myself, its like i have set up myself to fail on purpose.  Somehow I will get back on track. 
Weigh tomorrow morning and I know it won't be good at all.

Day Seventy Three

Still no change........................but not eating toooooooo bad but certainly could be a lot better.  but still no exercise.....  just failing miserably

Day Seventy Two

Well, what can i say.  I am still failing at the moment.   hahaha and weigh in tomorrow.


the scales will say it all.,.........

Day Seventy One

Biggest Loser Finale................................excellent show to watch....they are all so amazing.  I really find the ones that have lost the weight without all that help - the one's that got eliminated earlier in the show - are amazing, they know they have eyes on them but then they have all the temptations out here in the real world.
But I also love the ones on the show too, coz they have had to do all the exercises set out for them......they are amazing also.
and then we can't forget COMMANDO - how frigging good does he look (hahaha and I haven't even seen him yet BUT I know he will look good, he looks good in anything and nothing.....(sweet as)
Nice, just seen him.  I would do as many burpees as i could to get a cuddle :)  :)  :)


No exercise but I did do a lot of gardening....
Cheers :)

Day Seventy - Sunday

Well, hallelulah.........................I have remembered to blog....
Watching the Biggest Loser, and Nate got eliminated for the second time but what an amazing change in him.


Wow, Commando looks good.........


Oops got side tracked there......still trying to get back into it.   I am so hoping I do

Day Sixty Nine - SATURDAY

Hmmmmm and another day that is not a good one.............

Day Sixty Eight - FRIDAY

Can't remember.........obviously not very good :(

Day Sixty Seven

Oh My God, did you  see COMMANDO with his shirt offfffffffff,  hot hot hot.   Thank you so much ladies for making sure he did that.  That made my day :)


Now back to the normal old crap,  no exercise again today but eating was ok.  Watching the Biggest Loser was good motivation but the problem is by the time tomorrow comes around that motivation might be gone....
I really hope i can JFDI. 

Day Sixty Six

Well nothing good to report really.......no exercise.....eating was ok except for the two white choc mud cakes I had.....just because.
Forgot to weigh in so I shall do it tomorrow morning.  I know I would have put on weight but now I just have to try and keep losing it.....BUT i need to get my fat ass moving.

Day Sixty Five

Surprise, Surprise.......I was real good today.  No Carbs today - well I am pretty sure i haven't coz i didn't do the exact eating plan but tried to stick close to it.   I did do some exercise but still not enough especially considering it is weigh in day tomorrow.  Ah well, just have to improve for the next one..   At least my head is in the right place now :)  (besides on my shoulders, which I am happy about)

LEST WE FORGET

They Shall Grow Not Old, As We That Are Left Grow Old,
Age Shall Not Weary Them, Nor the Years Condemn,
At The Going Down Of The Sun, And In The Morning,
We Will Remember Them.

Day Sixty Three

Weight will be going on this week,  I can feel it.. :(    I know its my own fault, just can't seem to get my head in the right place...   But am going to see someone I haven't seen for quite a while tomorrow and I will ride my bike to get there!   and.......ride it home.
Another bad day................

Day Sixty Two

I finally went for  a bike ride, approx 8km and burnt approx 260calories, better than nothing.  Definitely getting better coz I wasn't as wiped out as I usually am and I was a couple of minutes quicker - woohoo.  Now to get out to the GymGarage tomorrow in the morning and do some weights.  
Happy Easter All, hope Easter Bunny comes to you but for those trying to lose weight choose another option to chocolate - I am having prawns.   Most likely too many but so so much better calorie wise than chocolate.
Goodnight :)

Day Sixty One - FRIDAY

Late once again.........just another failed day anyway.  Hot Cross Buns for brekky, Roast Pork .........yes with Crackling & some roast veg & Prawns.... PLUS Trifle - made with  choc cake, jelly, custard, jam and CrEaM, yummo.  (that last lot was for lunch..not brekky:) )
Was going to write no exercise but we did go for a walk, not a very fast one but at least it was a walk.
Hopefully Saturday will be better, I really want to get down to 95kg, coz I have promised myself a nice ring for that achievement.  Then the next milestone will be to get to the Eighties.........
I know I am struggling but at least I am not completely giving up, still need to sort out lots of problems....I think I need to go over all the pre season tasks with the 12WBT Program.

Day Sixty - THURSDAY

Late again, such is life.   I am definitely becoming too relaxed with my diet stuff, It seems to be that I notice I am losing weight still so for some reason I have to eat.  Self Sabotage back at it again, she is such a bitch, and I can't figure out why, I did come to the realisation last night in the shower that I was just thinking that for some reason I don't deserve to be nice and slim.......................what the?????   There is so much more I need to find out about why I sabotage my weight loss but I don't know how.   I think the main thing is not to let that nasty SS creep in too much.  
Mind you, I didn't even help today with no exercise and then eating some violet crumble and choc coated peanuts !!!!!!!! 
I really want to see 95kg or less on the scales,  I shall keep plodding along and hopefully have a LOT of light bulb moments to show me the way.

Day Fifty Nine

I MUST BE SICK...................... weighed in today and somehow I have lost more weight..down to 95.7kg, I thought I would be really struggling to get to this number.  I really don't understand how I am there.   I need to go to the doctors anyway, maybe I should get them to check for some bloody illness where you lose weight.  Don't get me wrong, I am real happy about this, I just don't understand HOW.  I have hardly exercised, I am trying to eat well but as I have been saying - the other day I was making mud cakes and sampled three cupcakes then tasted the mixture as well...then the weekends have not been flash.
Really makes me wonder, can you imagine how much I would have lost if I had been exercising and following the eating plan strictly....wow.

Day Fifty Eight

Not a great day, I did  a bike ride which I am enjoying, but that was all. The eating side was ok, but I think if I don't watch out it will start creeping back on......
I was feeling so good doing all the exercise, especially the weight sessions, and I really noticed the changes happening so I don't understand why I don't go back.  Shall give it a bash tomorrow in my GymGarage :) - hopefully 

Day Fifty Seven - MONDAY

Cannot work out why I can do stuff like Sunday and then Monday just don't bother to do a thing....Bloody baking mud cakes as well does not help at all.   
...................Just tried an adjusted White Choc Mud Cake recipe which tastes absolutely divine, so I shall keep that one.   and of course I had to try it to make sure it was good, but I didn't have to try it three or four times..!!
Hopefully Tuesday will be a better day. :)

Day Fifty Six

Well, I did surprise myself.  For my mini milestone on the 12 WBT program (didn't do exactly what Mish wanted but I put in and ok of an effort)


Bike Ride  10.5km  48min
Rowing Machine  1000 counts  24.55min
Treadmill   1.05km  12min


Was really impressed with my bike ride and the rowing machine ( did have a problem with the rower but the battery had come out of where it was meant to be)
I just got so bored with the Treadmill and I was going to go for a walk but I ended up having to pick up my son then I was cooking..........I know, I know,.............excuses, excuses.
