I have braved the rain and horizontal wind to go out to Zumba. Great to be back into it! We did a couple of new songs today which was fun.

Bad news on the Zumba front though, the instructor is going back to Brazil until December (last class with her next week). Fingers and legs crossed that they hook us up with another instructor!

Weigh in tomorrow… eeek!

Good morning!

I have been for about a 1.5km walk this morning (I got up at 6.30am, got the washing in because it was spitting and then went walking) – only got just over halfway as it started raining quite hard (admittedly though I did have a jacket, hat and mittens on). I have also discovered a place where I can forage for free cow manure for the vege garden. Helloooo mega pumpkins!

I am having bran flakes again this morning, as I type. Today I have some strawberry yoghurt with them, makes them slightly more edible.

Good evening Chaps.

I have been to a hard aqua class tonight – I got stuck with the larger dumbell things so had to work twice as hard (not a bad thing, I guess). So that was an hour of workoutyness. My bat flaps best be making themselves scarce after that!

Tomorrow morning I am planning on getting up at 6.30am (yes, that’s right Mum, 6.30am!) and going for a walk to the end of the road and back before an early start at work. Good times ahead!

Doth not make a very nice breakfast!

Day two into week six and still going good. I did a 2.5km walk today. Still coughing a little bit.

I will go to aqua tomorrow night, and then Thursday and Friday it sort of goes a bit bung as I am starting work a bit early which isn’t conducive to swimming or anything in the mornings. May have to think about getting up earlier and going for a walk. We shall see!

Week six has started with a hiss and a roar. Good eating and an aqua session. I will be going for a walk tomorrow morning before work.

Feeling much better this week, still coughing (I had a weird dream this morning, I was at some sort of Asian market in the middle of a lush paddock and they had little fruity cupcakes, and just as I was leaning over to buy one I started coughing in my dream, and then woke up coughing. Annoying, I want to know if the cupcakes, in their perfect little paper wrapping, tasted as good as they looked!) but nowhere near as much as last week.

Onwards and upwards! Incidentally, I have just calculated I have lost 3.5% of my original starting weight. Another fun way to measure!

Week five has come to a sticky end – just as well! I am getting tired of the 3am starts with so much coughing. Last night however was the first night I have slept through in almost two weeks (yay!). Still a bit of coughing this morning though.

Results – there has been no change since week 4, however I am pleased with this as I have managed to maintain it, even with fish and chips one night for dinner

So that is all. Next week I think I will get back into a couple of aqua classes and Zumba.

Good morning sunshines!

I’m starting to feel a little better today – up at 3am again coughing, but managed to get back to sleep and this morning there hasn’t been so much stuff come up. Hoping to feel well enough on Saturday to do Zumba!

I have bronchitis.

Grrrr!

That is all I have to say.

This week has not been very good, due to sickness. I have tried to eat a more balanced diet, keeping in mind that not a low of energy is being exerted (except during coughing – man my abs hurt!).

I am still pleased to report a loss this week!

Weight: 125.0kg
Measurements
Bust: 130cm
Waist: 122cm
Hips: 142cm
Upper Arm: 44cm
Thigh: 78cm

Weekly Total: 400 grams gone, and 2 cm less.
This works out to a total of 4.5kg gone, and all round 16 cm less.

I am happy to have kept on the downward trend – 400 grams still ads to the grand total. Hopefully this week I will start to feel more human (and my voice will come back!) and can resume the normal routine. I actually miss doing things and am a bit frustrated that I am not able to go and do Zumba etc. May have to go to the doctor and get some antibiotics – will see how I do this week.

And now I have a graph, which I will update once a month:

Neat fun!
