planning planning planning.....

Above is the first 4 weeks of my 'training' plan. You can click on it to see it better. Thanks very much to 'K', who has just taught me how to save stuff the right way so I can upload charts 'n' stuff to my blog...YAY!

I'm still preparing stuff to get ready for the 1st of Jan. Believe it or not, this week I have been training myself to kick my ass out of bed @ 5am....so far 3 out of 3...the dog is luvvin it!

Next job on the list is the food shopping -shopping is the easy part , eating the food is the part I struggle with in my blitz's. I know what to eat, when to eat & how much to eat, but sticking to it without having a binge on the wrong food is my struggle! Luckily nearly all the Christmas chocolate is gone in the household & it wont be replaced. I am refusing to buy any food that is not on my 'allowed' list. Any member of the family who wants to eat 'binge food' will have to

a. go buy it themselves

b. not put any of it in the kitchen cupboards &

c. not consume it anywhere near me!

In 11 days we are going away for a week. I wont be taking any munchies & the shops are not close! The family will need to learn to love fruit as this will be the only 'sugar food' that I'm packing. bahahahaha. ;)

I seriously believe that I am a sugar addict. There you go...I said it out loud. Lately I have been using stevia...it must be an 'acquired taste' as it's kinda weird! I want to stop using artificial sugar & have stopped buying 'diet' products. Another one of my aims is to eat more 'natural' foods that will be kinder to my body. I'm sure that I will feel alot better by doing this..bring it on!

nearly ready!!

So, there you have it....I've done the photos...not nice i know, but now you can see what I'm working with...or against or ....working off! The source of inspiration & motivation needed to get back into my wetsuit. Last night I did my tracking charts, took me AGES, as I'm not very computer savvy. I have no idea how I will get them onto here to share with the world though...I won't add any stats yet...will 'weight' until Jan 1st. Right then, 6 jobs down on the 'to do' list..

my training buddy...

Yay! I have a buddy to be accountable to! My buddy 'K' will be of vital importance on my journey to being to 'sexy milf'. I will be her buddy as well, & we have decided our start date will be Jan 1st. I will now spend the rest of my long weekend preparing for my journey, re-reading my program notes, planning menus & exercise schedules. I Lurrrve planning & preparing! I'm very excited...except for the start photo - not looking forward to that. I will be taking a photo of the dreaded muffin top that has taken up residence and my fav cargo pants that it now sits on top of....ok ok.. i will do a bikini shot as well...shudder shudder shudder!!

So, now I'm off to prepare a couple of tracking charts to graph my progress for centimetre loss, kilos loss & body fat percentage changes...whoo hoo!

a decision has been made.........

I'm sure my muffin top developed overnight. There is no other explanation for it! I dont need a muffin top - yeah its a good place to hide chocolate but that's about all it's good for. I've never had one before and have decided that I DON"T LIKE IT!!!!! How did this happen? Well, I changed jobs, got lazy & started eating shit - in that order. Next thing I know, the clothes are getting tighter and wobbly bits began to happen. The final straw? Getting on the Wii balance board & seeing my weight come up at 64.3kgs. I'm actually quite embarrassed, people who know me would actually be quite shocked that I have 'let myself go'. I'm known as the 'careful one' - always watching what she eats & singing the praises of exercising.
So, enough is enough. Once again I will weigh 57kgs. Actually, I would prefer to be about 54-55kgs. 14 months ago I purchased an on-line training program that ran for 12 weeks. I achieved some success with this program, definite centimetre loss & shape change, but not many kilos lost , however I didn't commit fully to the program & believe that had I of done this , then the program would definitely had better results. This time around I will attempt to fully commit. I will fit back into my wetsuit ,lose my muffin top & wobbly bits!
2010 will be there year of becoming a sexy MILF.
I will post pics along with measurements and a food & exercise diary, with thoughts and feelings of my journey along the way......
