Surprised!
I've been seriously off target for a while now, so was very surprised this morning when I weighed in at 169lbs exactly. I'll take that and run for the hills lol
So as of today I'm back on it. I've already had my daily caffine quota so will have to do without coffee for the rest of the day. Just about to go clean my kitchen and plan tonights dinner and make soup for tomorrow.
Will start drinking more water again as the coffee had creeped back in and I'm feeling very lethargic for it. Also got to get back on the Wii, tonight I'm going to do minimum of 30 minutes and try do that everyday.
I finally got to the doctor this week, my meds have been doubled, so fingers crossed I'll be a bit more stable. The dose I was on was to prevent the PND coming back but it already had come back so it wasn't really effective.
Today for me is about the house, playing with kids and doing chores and trying to stay away from ebay, its addictive lol
Tomorrow I'm going to a bead fayre with my daughter (nice to get a bit of one on one time with her) I used to make jewellery and I really fancy getting back into doing it again as I miss the creative outlet. I'm sure Skye will love it, she's such a girly girl, beads, jewellery and anything pink or sparkley are favourites lol.
So far today I've had
3 cups of coffee
Ham sandwich on oatmeal bread
Packet of hula hoops
Not a great start, but it will get better, I promise
Have a great Saturday x

Been a while
nearly 2 weeks since I blogged, not too much to report. Eating has been a bit hit and miss but I've managed to lose a tiny amount but I'll take that.
Posted a pic of hubby and I at my cousins wedding on Saturday, had a great time, did lots of dancing.
Still feeling very unmotivated, think its more to do with the PND as its with everything not just diet and exercise, think a trip to the GP is on the cards possibly change of meds or increasing dosage. Not coping at the moment, I think it could easily tip into a very bad place which scares me a lot. So if I manage to stay relatively sane atm then I'll happily maintain the weight lol
Hope you're all well, doubt I'll manage to catch up with all the missed blogs

Need Motivating
to get up and do anything. Seriously I've done as little as possible this morning and sat here the rest of the time. Hoping typing this will make me get of my butt and go do something, supposed to have gone out this morning and be going to visit friends this afternoon but have no energy whatsoever

Good Monday Morning
Last night I had my induction at the gym, then I stayed for 45 minutes to workout. Would have stayed longer but I was starving! So I managed 12 minutes on a bike, 10 minutes on the treadmill, only 5 minutes on the cross trainer OMG how hard is that!!! Kept my HR at a fat burn level of 130. After the cardio I moved onto the weights and did 10 reps on all the machines, wanted to stop at around 6 but managed to push on till 10. Left the gym nice and red and sweaty. Definately need my mp3 player with some good tunes on it though, the music is pants.
Today I feeling a little better emotionally, wonder if DH being on holiday and interuption to routine has caused the blip. If it is, only another week till I get back to normal.
Scales looking happy today exactly 170lbs. Hopefully at the next weighin I can get below 170 again, I seem to have been stuck in the 70's forever.
Yesterday I woke in a hellish mood because I was supposed to get a lie-in but DH kept letting the kids come in to wake me and he kept coming in to talk. When its his lie-in I let him sleep until he's ready to wake. I think I need to book a couple of nights away in a travel in or something, just for me, to catch up with some much needed zzzzzz's.
Today I got a lie-in and am just out the shower. When I'm dressed we'll have lunch then go to the library. Its raining here yet again but the kids need out. Think later on we'll get togged up in wellies and waterproofs and go splash in puddles.
Exercise today will be 2 zumba classes, one after the other lol yes I've definately got the zumba bug and I can do the 2 classes cause DH is on holiday. Also want to try a core exercise I saw on a poster at the gym, will try for 10 reps and see how I get on.
Have a good day x

Been a bit of a browser lately
Not been feeling great recently, had a bit slip with PND so just been browsing on here really and not commenting much. Starting to climb out the other side of it now though so I'll hopefully be back to 'normal' soon.
Not managed any of my exercise classes this week, zumba lady is on holiday and LO been ill so couldn't leave him on Wednesday so feeling lethargic because of that too. I'm thinking of doing an induction at my local gym to use as and when I need some exercise for an energy boost, I could have really done with it this week.

Getting back into swing of it
Been missing from here for a couple of days because its been a sick house again, turns out my food poisoning wasn't food poisoning after all, it just took a few days for everyone else to come down with it. Strange how it came on at my bbq. Anyway, been looking after a sick DH and eldest son, DH is now better, DS is starting to mend.
At the weekend I got the WHOLE weekend of from my youngest, he went to my mums to get him taking milk from a bottle. On his return I shifted his cot into Moss' room so the boys now share and I've got my bedroom back woohoo! So spent all of yesterday reorganising and tidying my room, amazing how much room the cot took up. Saturday night I abandoned my poor DH to get the night of and go drink wine with my sister, was lovely to get time off, need to insist I get that more often, should be easier with the little one on the bottle now.
Last night I finally got back to zumba after 2 weeks off, was great, I love it. Felt last night I was starting to get the hang of it and was not embarassed to do it. I'm someone who normally needs a good few drinks in me before I can dance so this class was quite a challenge initially in that respect. Not sore at all today despite working really hard and getting very red and sweaty. I'm really starting to enjoy exercising and can see how it can become addictive, I get quite a buzz from it, should have taken it up years ago lol
Today I'll be stuck at home again, eldest not able to leave house yet, so I'll be doing more housework, and I'm going to do the 2 mile dvd for the first time, plus getting on my ball for some core work. Tonight my shopping is being delivered so will try get on the wiifit, child permitting of course, last night was 10pm before I got all 3 to sleep, thats not good!
Foodwise I've no idea what I'm doing today, it'll be a make what I can from whats left in the cupboards day.
Have a fabulous Tuesday xxx

Emotional day
Well thats my boy finished playschool, I got a bit teary collecting him and getting him to give his presents to his teachers and give cuddles. They are so good with him there, I hope the nursery teachers are at least half as good.
So this morning I ran some errands while Moss was at playgroup, then took kids to McD's for lunch then to visit my mum and dad.
My eating hasn't been great day but I've not had loads so if I can behave tonight I'll be fine callorie wise. I really need to count what I'm eating now because tomorrow the wee one goes to my mums for the weekend to get him of breastfeeding, he's a biter and its not on so he's getting put on the bottle. But it means I'll have to eat less to keep losing.

Feeling better
yay! throat still a bit sore but was caught at the right time and didn't get horrendous thankfully!
Yesterday I had a great day. Out in the garden all morning. After lunch my dad came and collected the 2 littlest ones and gave me time to spend alone with my eldest. We had a great afternoon/evening! Spent about 2 hours walking into the garage to collect my car, its a long walk for me so Moss did great, was at least 4 miles, but at the end of it he got a bottle of juice and some sweeties and a play at the park. Then we went to tesco for dinner (i chose a prawn salad with no dressing) then home and Moss was more than ready for bed and I got ready for my keep fit class. While i was out, dad dropped of 2 little ones and Skye was in bed when I got home too so just Zack to feed and put to bed.
I really noticed the difference doing my class after the long walk, my pelvis was not happy at the time but I kept it low but kept moving. No problems this morning which is great, I was slightly concerned that it was too much for me but I must have been underestimating what I can do, I wont do that again, munroes here I come!!!
So today looks like getting Moss to playschool woohoo! first time all week.
Then taking skye swimming, putting zack in the creche at the pool.
Collect moss from playschool then home this afternoon for housework and play.
Tonight i plan to do the 2 mile dvd and get on my exercise ball to work on my core, i really need to work on my core strength
Have a great day!
