Moving

Got 12 lengths done yesterday at the pool and also a soak in hot tub. Little guy was at daycare so I got 4 hrs to work out and also read a book and shower yipee! Today I went for a walk with stroller with another two Mums and we did 3 miles which flew by so quick having a quick chat. Was great. I'm off to Walmart and check out the bike prices as I'm unlikely to go cycling on my current one and can't train on it as doesn't fit trainer. Also good to get out and walk and if all goes well will try and get a quick paddle in pool later too :) movin and groovin

Milestones

Went to WW yesterday or as my family like to all it Bobs. I was
awarded my 50 pound charm for losing over 50 pounds. From there to
chiropractor to get my pelvis adjusted and my tailbone. It's been
bothering me which is part trying to walk and do more and also part of
my body adjusting to new center of gravity and changing shift in
balance as i lost over 70 pounds (5 stone)

Today a new milestone, I have lost more since January than I now have
to lose. That's a first and exciting to get there. I'm now 10 pounds
away from my Docs goal for mid July so be trying hard to reach that as
well

Schedules

This week didn't get to exercise as much as I should or would have
liked to. No particular reasons for not doing it. I just seemed to
have conflicting schedules going on and number one reason was that I
didn't schedule myself first. How many times do we do that, schedule
everyone else as Mums but forget ourselves. I find if I don't plan it
and schedule it, it doesn't happen. So here's to working out more at
the weekend and making up for a lazier week than I liked

Getting there

Went to dinner last night for one of my best mates who is leaving for
UK. I tried a sip of drink and went to my head so switched to water
pronto. I had Shrimp as my meal and the 4 shrimp were very tasty. It
was a fun night and glad I'm not a drinker as sure I'd be rough
feeling this morning. It doesn't bother me that I don't drink at
parties. I prefer the chat anway and there were a lot of fun folks
there. Posted pictures of before and after. You can see the 5 stone/70
pound difference alright. I'm going to take out the box of clothes in
garage to try on as my drawers here are getting more empty as I put
the clothes away that are too big. More important though I feel more
healthy and I go on walks and exercise because I actually want to and
have so much more energy. I feel 10 years younger and so does my hubby
(who is down 15 pounds himself and looks 10 yrs younger!)
