Day 52 - Hurrrahhhh

So having a puppy really is like having another baby and to be honest I am finding it really really tough, everyone keeps telling me though that it does get better, so I am just going to hang on in there.  The great news is that as I have been so busy, my appetite has completely disappeared and food no longer has the same appeal.  So when I stepped on the scales this morning to find I had lost 5 pounds in the last 2 weeks I was well and truly chuffed.

Roll on another 2 weeks when I can actually walk this puppy!!!

Breakfast
1 banana

Lunch
will try to eat a sandwhich

Dinner
Stirfry chicken!  I think

Day 48 - Puppies!!! Arrrghhhh

Ok, whose idea was it to get a puppy????  oh ok it was mine, bloody hell, stop me if I come up with an idea like that again!

I had no idea it would be so trying, so tying and so much bloomin hard work.  Nearly sent it back yesterday.  On the good side, she is so so cute, Charlotte absolutely adores her and she is growing on me.  Just can't wait to get out for those walks.

so because I have been so busy, I can't say I have been following the programme perfectly, however probably more to the point, I haven't really been eating, which I know is not the way to lose weight, but I simply have not had time.  So not sure what the scales will show this week, my belt has gone down another notch and i feel slimmer, but, well, you never really know.

Ok off to poop scoop! 

Day 39 - Ouch

Have been working out really hard this week at Zumba and the gym and I hurt.  There's no getting round it, I ache!!!  I know its good for me, but I do wonder why I ache so much, I thought I was getting fitter!!

Weigh day yesterday and I said a firm farewell to another 3 pounds, thats 17 now, and this time they are not ever coming back!!

Really enjoying losing weight and eating healthier even my nails are growing longer and stronger!!

Breakfast
Belvita

Lunch
Tortilla wrap with 1 cheese slice and sweet chilli jam and rocket
1 pkt french fry crisps
banana

Dinner
Scallops and chorizo with mushrooms and frylight roasted potato
Yoghurt

Day 37 - Puppies

So we finally decided we were ready for a puppy and then out of luck (ok, maybe out of me looking) one came available at the weekend, so we travelled down to see it, under the strict instruction of my husband not to make any decisions.  An hour later we found ourselves the proud parents of an 8 week old Cairn Terrier, she is absolutely gorgeous and we are all (including husband) besotted with her.  I was restrained though and didn't bring her straight home, even though I could have done.  We are going back to get her next week as we are all out at Crufts on Sunday and it really wouldn't be fair to leave her on her own.  I am just thinking about all the extra walking and how good it will be for me, although someone did point out that as a puppy they don't actually walk that much so may I had better not rely on it!!! 

So I went to aqua fit again yesterday and she is now beginning to split the class into two, those that want to work and those that don't.  guess which side I am in, well the aches will convince you!!  Off to Zumba tonight, haven't been for a week so its going to hurt!  Also its weigh day tomorrow, wish me luck!

Breakfast
1 slice wholemeal toast with cheese slice

Lunch
Tortilla wrap
French fry crisps
Yoghurt

Dinner
Omlette
Strawberries 

Day 32- Hurrrahhhhh

A bit late but yesterday I hit the 1 stone lost mark, I am so chuffed as it has taken me just a month to do it.  I am already feeling much better and my clothes are loser which is fab.  I know i still have a long way to go, still have another 1.5 stone to lose until I get to where I was last year, but I am trying not to think about that!

Haven't been as busy this week or done as much exercise so have to change that today and head off to the gym.

Setting up this new business is great fun but involves a lot of sitting on my bum, so have to compensate for that!!!!


Breakfast
crumpet with cheese slice

Lunch
Low fat home made macaroni cheese (very small bowl)
Pear

Dinner
Omlette
Strawberries
