My weekend didn't start off very well. On Friday morning, I woke up with the cold that Gavin & the kidlets have been hanging onto for a week - I thought I had escaped getting it but apparently not! Mum came over and looked after us for the day which was great - but not so great in the food department. Mum went to the shops to get a few things for me, and came back with chocolate - ordinarily this wouldn't have been a bad thing but for my weightloss it was! I 'thought' I was fairly good about it only having a few pieces but when I sat back at the end of the night I realised i'd had more than I thought!
This cold also put an end to my thoughts of going to the gym on Friday!
Woke up Saturday morning feeling a fair bit better - had my mothers day massage which was absolutely awsome!!! I was talking to the massuse dude and he was asking about how much exercise I did cos there were alot of 'knots' in my calf muscles.. he said that I must do a fair bit of 'fast walking' to get those kind of knots.. umm... yep I do ! Made me feel great that a complete random had noticed I exercised!!
Sunday was a birthday party in Sydney for one of my schoolfriends sons. He was 1 and just sooo adorable!! poor girl has her hands full - for 2 weeks she will have two 1 year olds to deal with!! (but I know she can do it!!). Lots of yummy party food there - including some yummy wraps which had lots of point free food in them - treated myself to 1 mini spring roll and one pasisti and the smallest piece of birthday cake which was delish!! My undoing for the day was the stop off at maccas on the way home cos Ebony needed a bottle - Kimmie shouted me a coke, but I figure that 6 weeks ago it would have been a coke & chocolate sundae so pretty happy with myself in that regard.
I haven't tracked my points since Thursday cos I was feeling to damn miserable to want to sit in front of a computer.... I was mentally adding things up in my head as I went along and *think* I stayed within my allowance but I couldn't guarantee this.
Woke up this morning - Monday weigh-in.. aggh.. scales showed 108.1kg which is a gain of 1.7kg from last week.. NOT HAPPY AT ALL.. buttt.. I know exactly how this has happened -
1. I haven't exercised since WEDNESDAY last week - Thats 5 days!! (mostly owing to being sick.. butt....not even a walk to the shops with the kidlets which is very very unusal!!)
2. I haven't drunk anywhere near enough water the last few days
3. I wasn't actively making sure that I kept within my point allowance..
So here's what i'm going to do about it this week:
1. Go to the gym Monday, Thursday and if I can find a sucker to watch the kidlets Saturday as well
2. On the days I don't go to the gym which will prob be Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday I will take the kidlets in the pram for a walk which will go for at least 1 hour. It will hurt cos by the time I take into account the pram (14kgs), Jacob (15kgs) and Ebony (8kgs) I am pushing 37kgs.. plus I add anything extra in !!
3. I will drink every drop of water that I am supposed to. I have made a chart up for the fridge so I can at least track that
4. Make sure that I correctly portion my food out - none of this "close enough is good enough" mentality..
5. no evil chocolate. As much as I love to eat it, its a proven fact that I can't just have a litty bit and leave it!!
Anyways, im off, washing to hang out - showers to be had, kidlets to be dressed!!
have a good day & take care
Kylie
