Week Four

My goal is to get on the treadmill and walk/run 3 - 5kms a day.
I'm also trying to eat 'real' food and eliminate sugar.
As I have rheumatoid arthritis and my Mum had a heart attack in her early 60's,
I'm making health and fitness a priority this year.

I'm tired of being flabby & frumpy.
I want to be fit & fabulous!
So....2012 is the year of fit and healthy for me.
I'm hoping to find some others who are doing the same thing so
we can support and motivate each other.

So I think I'm having an arthritis flare up. I've been feeling it since Christmas but woke up feeling like I'd been hit by a bus in my sleep this morning. I started the day with 2 glasses of water and will be drinking 1 right before bed.
Also aimed to eliminate salt, bread and sugar today. I did have some salted nuts, I licked icing off my finger whilst backing cupcakes with the kids, but I haven't had any bread! Yes!!

(No smashing anything today, but it felt good to get on for a bit.)

I've been shocked into reopening this blog.
I stood on the scales tonight and saw 66kg.
For me, a 158cm shortie, that is overweight, and a new high for me.

Starting Over....AGAIN!

We're at the tail end of our week long holiday at the coast.
I was mainly on the 'taking' end of the photos, but one was taken of me and it was hideous.
I'm embarrassed and ashamed of what I've become.
I need to lose at least 8kgs to look the way I think I look.
I need to get fitter to rid myself of uneccessary pain.
I need to feel better about myself.

So I have a plan.
I'm re-opening this blog.
And this time I have to stick to it.

My plan to start with is...

a) 15mins daily strength exercises that I can do at home. (No more excuses about not being able to get out because of the kids or bad weather.)

b) Healthy eating including mainly fruit, salad, vegetables and lean meat.

I will be logging my exercise and food diary every day.
That oughta keep me honest, right?
Wish me luck!

Oh yeah, my goal is 58kgs (that's -7) by Christmas.
Possible? I hope so!!

Day 2

DAY 2 (Feast)

Weight - 62.8kg

Day 1

OK, I'm digging this blog out from wherever it was buried.
It's getting a little makeover.
I'm turning it into a food log.
Each morning I am going to write what I am allowed to eat for the day.
At the end of the day I'll see how I went.
My goal is to lose weight and get under 60kgs in however many days it takes.

And I'm also trying something new that I read about somewhere.
I read that the body responds well to days in turn of famine and feast.
So, because I always try out these new fandangled ideas, I'm giving this one a go.
Most fads work, if you stick to them.
It's my stick-to-it-ness that's always been my problem.
Let's see how long I last.....

DAY 1 (Famine)

Weight - 63.8kg

Breakfast - 1 slice of Vegemite toast
Morning Tea - fruit and yogurt
Lunch - 1 slice of left over homemade pizza, cuppa soup
Afternoon Tea - lavash bread chips with hommus
Dinner - fish and vegetables


How did I go?
Not too bad, but extras that I ate that were not on my list were 1 slice of bread with butter, bacon that my kids didn't eat for dinner, a spoon of ice-cream that my kids didn't eat, 1 biscuit.
