Day10 an Day 11

day10Reached day ten and weighed in down 1.5 kilos and 5 cm of the waist.  I did my steps but not my 30 minute exercise and ended up eating a small piece of cake yesterday and chicken.  Weird maybe a celebration for hitting the 10 day mark.  Just goes to show I’m still a long way off getting balance in my eating habits.  Find it is best to speak it out though then there is no guilt for me to deal with.

Today is Day 11 I slept in as early start so as yet have not walked or exercise.  Will update later.

Standing for what you believe in, regardless of the odds against you and the pressure that tears at your resistance – means courage.

Keeping a smile on your face for the sake of supporting others, when inside you feel like dying – means strength.

Stopping at nothing, doing what’s in your heart and you know to be right – means determination.

Doing more than is expected to make another persons life a little more bearable, without uttering a single complaint – means compassion.

Helping a friend in need and to the best of your ability, no matter what time or effort that is required – means loyalty.

Giving more than you have and expecting nothing in return – means selflessness.

Holding your head high, being the best you know you can be when life seems to fall apart at your feet, facing each difficulty with the confidence that time will bring you better tomorrows and never giving up – means commitment, faith and confidence.

Day 9

So far so good had a lovely walk, fell on the rocks whilst walking along the beach, then it rained and had to run in the rain, but this was waiting for me at the end.

Day 8

 

day8

Well I got up and walked and then had a nice hissy fit as a little over working the same job.  My food was good today which is good and did my 30 minute exercise after work.

So my thoughts are on the whole work situation.  I am so thankful for what the job gives me financially and in relation to security.  What work doesn’t do is allow me any creativity.  I am literally connected to the phone all day with having to be accountable the whole time there.

However it is ok to have a moment as long as you don’t stay there.

I lost one kilo last week, which is not a bad effort I think.

 

 

Day 6 and 7

discouraged

An excuse is just that even if it seems a good reason.  Saturday I worked and didn’t manage to walk.  I came home ready to go for a walk but an issue arose with my daughter that needed me to sit and talk to her.  By the time issues had been resolved it was too late to go for a walk and I was exhausted.  I did not have any meals left so just ate dinner with the family which consisted of chicken and bread.

I also had a wrap for lunch as I didn’t have time to pack lunch and so as lunch was provided I choose a wrap.  The good thing was I didn’t have any of the chocolate or biscuits that was going around.

So a bit disappointed in myself I thought Sunday is a new day it will all be good.

 

Sunday woke up late, had to rush to church, picked up fresh veges on the way home with the idea of going for my walk, doing my 30 minutes and then get ready to attend my nieces’ wedding.  So got home and then my son had an issue that needed to go through and my daughter needed to pick up some things from the shop.  Children win and by this time being nearly 12.00 I had just eaten a banana and was hungry, got back home and had a couple of pieces of toast with tomato with butter of course, got ready for the wedding and headed off.

By the time I got home from wedding no chance of walking or doing video and with no preplanned food had a couple of cracker biscuits with butter and peanut butter and chicken and salad.  Ahhh at least what I recognise is that I really need to get a grip on food as it is this which stops me losing weight.  To do this I need to be prepared.

So have a soup on, have made a salad and will cook tomorrow after work.  I’m on early start so will get up early to do my walk.  So I’m going to try again.
