Week 7 wrap up

As I finish Week 7 and go into Week 8, I have things to ponder.

I am regretting not taking a before shot, doing the exercises and posting regular updates for the world to see like other people have.

I did choose NOT to do pictures as I don't take a good pic and self pics are terrible things if you can't get them right.

I also didn't do the pre start exercises as I signed up bang on Saturday and had to push all those pre season things into TWO days.

Now I sit here in week 7 and although I feel GREAT and look just as good, I can't help but feel like I have let myself down by not embracing the whole "weight loss" thing.

Its not the be all etc as I have hardly ANY pictures of myself in the photo collection (which I am trying to change so my kids know I was there), but I really should have documented this journey better.

I also have the dreaded "fat girl" syndrome where I feel great, but still see that big girl in the mirror and then I don't want to share my pictures with anyone lol.

I am also disappointed that I came into the #12wbt ready to go and now I am cooped up at home recovering from my surgery and I just want to go to the gym or go for a run or SOMETHING!

But enough with that......

It is EASTER!!!

• John is outside making himself a planter box to do a raised garden in.
• He put in some ceiling insulation so the kids are getting quite toasty rooms now
• I am STILL waiting for the rain to come (with everyone else)
• I am thankful that Jesus died for our sins and rose again
• I won $72 on my lotto ticket last weekend!
• I won 12 Hot Cross buns from an awesome cafe today on Facebook!
• My kids are healthy and so am I 
• Ooh and my brother is coming over on Monday!

Go and enjoy this time with your family and watch some really bad telly!

Much Love

Crazy busy week

It has been a crazy week here...well it seems like it.
After having such a short week last week (labour weekend), this week is just flying through.


A short recap for ya!


Monday....OMG we were blessed with HOT sunny weather so I went for my usual weekly 1hour walk with my luffaly friend before she flies off to Auckland for a womens church thing for the weekend.


Tuesday....Started with Declans weekly swim lesson and then dropped him at daycare. The weather wasnt so good today....Cloudy and muggy.


Wednesday....SHOPPING DAY! I was so shocked to see so many specials this week at my supermarket Countdown. I filled my trolley, got what I needed and got more stuff and still had just over my weekly grocery budget left! So Im going to splurge on some extra meat this week because I want to start stocking up for the Dec-Feb period.
I went and had lunch with hubby, went to weekly church group, picked up Andrew (mr7) from school and took him to haircut and swim lesson and Burger King for dinner on the way home.


Thursday (today).....stayed AWAKE after hubby left for work (shock horror!), took Declan (mr4) to daycare ON TIME :O haha and even got to fit in 90mins at gym before coming home and having shower....now just have laundry to do (have run out of towels again...what are they doing with them?) and a blob in front of the telly.


Bring on tomorrow!
