About Me

On 4 January 2010 I pledged to get slimmer, fitter and healthier. My journey has so far being bumpy, so bumpy in fact that I derailed in March, got back on track in June and have now just completed my first 12 week programme of working out and eating healthily. I have so far lost 9 pounds and am steadily working towards my goal to lose the grand total of 21 pounds. However, a strange thing happened during the 12 week programme: I started enjoying working out. I realised that I actually love to sweat and I am pretty good at it! I kick @ss in the gym and I check myself out in the mirror while I work. Oh yes, I am a warrior, waging war against each and every excess pound!

Week 3 Weigh In

I have been so incredibly busy at work this week that I have felt too tired to blog. All in all I would summarise the week as 80% good, 20% naughty - exactly what I am aiming for. The 20% naughty comes from half a slice of carrot cake (in aid of the Haiti cake bake) and a bag of Maltesers during the week and at the weekend. I felt like I was coming down with a cold so I missed my Friday morning spin/circuit class but Body Pump on Thursday was great (I lifted heavier weights) and pilates on Saturday was a really good stretch. I'm really syked up about spin tomorrow, I'm going to give 200% to make up for Friday.

Food this week has been pretty good. My lovely boyfriend took me out to Wagamama's - where I happily scoffed most of my Chicken Katsu Curry - and to the cinema to watch Up in the Air - where I happily scoffed Maltesers!

I weighed myself at the gym yesterday and was pleased to find that I've lost another 1.5 lbs!! I'm so pleased, particularly as it's my TOTM and I am feeling quite bloated. That means I have so far lost a grand total of 5 lbs, which puts me well on the way to reaching my short term target of losing 8 lbs by February 19th!!!
