Getting fit for Europe

Well I bet you thought I was gone for good eh lol
Well my fellow Telly tubbies in Palmy suggested I start my blog back up to count down our trip to Europe.

So 12 weeks ago I started yet again my weight loss journey and to date have lost 11.5 Kgs.
Not bad considering we had Christmas and new year in there along with the death of my dad :-(
So it has been a very stressful 12 weeks.

So on 10th May 2013 we fly out of Auckland to begin our 6 week adventure. Mainly to see Amanda who moved to England in April :-(.

So to cap it off I'm losing weight as I'm not traipsing round Europe fat and have got a bike as I need to get fit. No good losing weight if I'm not fit enough to do all the things I want to do.

So it begins again...............

I'M BACK .....................

Well I put back some of the weight over my Xmas break that I took off silly me. My own fault so I have decided to cut out all soft drinks so diet coke no sugar at all yip I'm taking everything out that I shouldn't eat so it wont be a problem. It's going well the weight is now coming off I just have to stick to what I know and it WILL work.
I need to get me but into gear and do some exercise that's another thing I got slack on so I will discuss with Chris re walking again I know she will be chuffed with that.
Right so off to work
Catch you all later.

I'm getting more active folks

Yip ya heard right.

Not only am I walking the dog and walking on sat with me fellow Telly tubbies but I also figured out how to get more active during my day at work.

It seems there are good ideas on tv I was watching 20/20 the other day and there was a item on call centes having the highest rate of heart ideas and obesty seems sitting on ya tosh all dy ain't good for ya HELLOOOOO tell me something I don't know they recommended that ya get a tread mill under ya desk well the boss ain't gonna wanna do that so I did the next best thing I started walking around while I was on the fone and I got 2 of the other girls to do it to and we gonna do it every day :-) I'm real chugged about that.

So no more getting fat at work. ya can work up a right sweat walking on the spot or trying to dance at ya desk it looked pretty funny but do I care HE'LL NO I don't.

I lost 500gms last week and I wanna lose more this week so jigglin and wiggling is gonna come in handy lol

Food wise I'm good I'm making better choices so I real proud of me self I know me fellow Telly tubbies are all doing well to so I'm real proud of us all

Well nite nite this Telly tubby needs her beauty sleep

PO over and out :-)

Well I finally figured out how to use me iPad on blogger

Well it seems I just needed to change 1 thing so now I can blog to me hearts content.

We got a new dog on Saturday we had been looking for quite some time but we needed to get just the right one.

Brock is afraid of dogs after getting knocked over and licked to death so we needed a quiet dog and 1 that didn't jump.

We found honey on trademe she's 5 years old so not yappy or bouncy and she as quiet as a church mouse.

It was real hard getting her as I felt I was betraying Max but she's filled a void which has been there ever since Max died.

So it's walking for us now, we done a big walk today and I got a big arse blister for me troubles but that's ok, no pain no gain eh.

Eating is on track I'm focused for the first time in a long time and it feels great.

I lost 3 kilos last week so that was great but I'm not expecting that much loss this week it would be great but we all know the first week is usually the best week so I'm hoping for 1 kilo this week.

ITS TIME TO PULL FINGER AGAIN

Well Me and 3 of me mates have decided its time to stop being telly tubbies and do something about it. So without further ado it's game on.
I weighed me self not happy with it but it was better than i thought it would be.
So now im tracking, walking, drinking me water and I'm focussed on the end but remember small steps to get to the end result so 1st goal to lose 5 kgs hoping it will take about 4 weeks.

Going walking with Chris and Anne 3 days a week and if we get that little dog I will be walking every day so on with me day got to go to work got my snacks so i dont get distracted by chippies and choc I was real good last night they brought out the chippies and choc and i brought out me carrot sticks. They might end up joining me when they start to see the kilos drops.

It feels good to be in control

MY Hearts not good folks

Well I woke up on Wednesday feeling really flat I had no energy at all took all my energy to drag my sorry arse out of bed to get ready for work.

Had no energy at work and My workmate was getting worried as I just wasnt myself

Then at 7pm I started getting a tightening in my chest.

I thout to meself thats not good then I started getting a pain in my shoulder at this stage I thout I better get an amblance but thout nah i'll go home and see Neil

On my way home I started feeling a pulse in me chin and knew i was in deep doggy doo doo here

I got home and Neil started complaining bout things and I thout ah crap and went and sat down.

went to bed and thout if i'm not feeling better tomorrow i'll go to the doc.

So thursday morning I get up feeling just as bad as yesterday so rang the doc but he not there so i think well maybe I'll go to the
emergency doc so thats what i was going to do but then my dughter in law rang so was going to the doc and asked if i was all right so I told her me prob she was round in a jiffy and took me to her doc who did an ecg then put me in an ambo and sent me to hosp.

So ive been jabed ecged bped and temped all day and night i got more drugs than the chemist.

My bp was 180/80 no wonder doc was panicing

So now im home and me bp is back to semi normal i have to have a heart scan and go see a cardiologist now that'll be fun

And just to show ya I havent lost me fighting spirit i got into a heated discussion with the doc.
He wants to put me on cholestrol tabs but since my cholestrol is dam near perfect i wasnt gonna take them seems everyone with a heart condition has to take them as a precaussion so if i take them when me cholestrol is so dam good what the hell they goona do for me eh ?

Well i'm home now and i still have no energy so i think i'm gonna have a nana nap

Neil your in deep doggy doo doo (in the shit)

Well Neil must think i dont go thru the camera cause look what I found in the photo files PPPPPPPissed I am.


He knows no ones allowed to mess with me bears so whats he gone and done letting Brock into there room.
Now dont get me wrong I love Brock more than anyhting but ya DONT MESS WITH ME BEARS :-(

I new someone had been in with them was not happy and Neil knows not to mess with them he just told me to get over it Brock loved it in there.

Well thats the first and last time hes gonna visit them I can tell ya.

Nana not happy

So how do you keep an active 14mth old busy well ya dont put him in with me bears thats for sure ya put on Thomas the Tank engine lol

Kept him and granddad busy for ages so nana could get things done.

Also keeps Poppa busy lol

And little Ella just sleeps thru it lol

And sleeps................

So its back to normal kids have gone home bears are fixed up and now after work I get me Nails done.

Took ages but it was her first set so shes got room for improvement not that she needs to improve much just needs to get faster at it but that will come with practice.

Well im gonna go yell at vodafone they stuffed up our account and havent fixed it I better not get another non english speaking person again that will really set me off

catch ya later
