IT IS FREEZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi All

I cannot remember it being this cold!!!
My face nearly froze this morning! We went for a walk to the local park (which may I add is slightly different from Carine Open Sapce in Perth!) to feed the ducks and I almost lost use of my mouth, I'm sure I must have been dribbling like you do when you have a numb face after the dentist!

My little girl had her lovely pink fluffy coat on, gloves hat etc, new trainers and went head over heels into a big muddy puddle! ARRRGGGHHHHH!

So what have we been doing, apart from being wide awake at 3am.......................

I have been spending time with close family, caught up with all family, seen my bestest friends Katie and Tanya, looked after my baby neice Lauren who is just gorgeous!!!, had a birthday party for Maddison, been to see Santa, had a chinese!!! (not important but its my favourite chinese, just can't find one like it in Oz), been to the gym..... EVERY day!! doing lots of classes and running, got alot planned for end of this week and next week, including a night out with my hubby for our anniversary.

Here is a picture of the day we went to see Santa in the big grotto display.




from left to right
my mum,
Baby lauren,
Maddison
and me








I will be back soon with no doubt another update and a few more pics.

I hope you are all well and getting ready for Christmas and to those in Oz, enjoy the sunshine!!

Speak soon

10 weeks down - ALL DONE!!

I'm not at all done!
but I hit my 9kg loss this week.

Would really love to make it 10kg for Friday!

Did I mention we leave for Christmas in the UK on Saturday morning???

I cannot believe I will see my family THIS WEEK!!!!!

Anyways, a quick update and I will try and update again later in tthe week.

WEEKLY LOSS - 0.7kg

TOTAL LOSS, 10 WEEKS - 9.5kg

Measurements
Chest loss of 5.5 cm (feels like loads more, boobs are non-existant)
Arms L loss of 2.5 cm
R loss of 2.5 cm
Waist loss of 9.5 cm
Hips loss of 12 cm
Thighs L loss of 12.5 cm
R loss of 13 cm
Calves L loss of 3.5 cm
R loss of 2.5 cm

Wanted to do Fat % but we can't find the calipers!

OK so really don't want to do this but here is a before picture from
mid August, I started about 2 weeks after.




















ARRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! How did I get like that!!!

OK so remember hubby did these at home and I wasn't looking to
fresh with hair and make up. 10 weeks on...................................



1st one I Didn't know
how to Stand!!

2nd one is a
Bodybalance pose.


















I have lost a little more since hubby did the pics but thats a true
representation of how I am looking right now.
10 weeks of hard work and eating clean.

I will now continue on and have exciting times ahead in a few areas of
my life, work and personal so am really looking forward to have a great
break in the UK ( a very active one mind you!!, got a gym lined up for
the month, a few classes to make a guest appearance at and some
running) then hitting it all hard when we get back.

The best thing to come out of this is the fact that I wanted to
become a confident and contented person in all areas of my life.

I can say I haven't just changed in 10 weeks, but I have had a
definate mind shift and I know for fact I will not waste another
year like i did this one, fighting the battle with myself!

Believe in yourself and all that you are.

Know that there is something inside you
greater than any obstacle.

Christian D Larson


I will be back to blog before I go ........ did I mention I go to the Uk on Saturday!???? :)

So have a great week, keep checking back as I will also try and blog from the UK,
perhaps a few pictures with my new neice!

Have a great week

Days 57 - 64 - 9 weeks done

WHERE IS THE TIME GOING?????????

9 weeks completed............

and its still coming off!!! slowing down now but still getting losses.

This weeks loss - 0.7kg
Total loss in 9 weeks - 8.8kg yay!

(getting told now not to lose anymore!! What!?, my butt is still huge!) :)


This was quite pleasing to me as I had boobs full of fluid and puffy legs from the monthly curse!

So my aim was 9kg........ 0.2kg to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! would love to hit 10kg!! 1.2kg to do in 2 weeks?

I have really been pushing hard this last week, extra running, weights 3 times this week and normal classes.

My legs are just the worst at shaping up, each time I have lost weight I swear by running and I swear that it is the only thing (along with weights of course) that helps to trim my legs up.

I will weigh on Saturday for final post of this journey as the following Saturday I will be a little to busy to post the result so I may just give a last update on the Friday.

I will measure this week and hope to have hubby do a few pictures so I can post them, along with the dreaded before shots of course!!!

Did I mention why I would be busy?????????? :)

I am not only eating my own hands with excitement now I have had to move to my feet!!!!!

12 sleeps to go...........


I had my Les Mills quarerly training this weekend and I just love the new Bodyattack and Bodybalance they are great releases!! I also start to teach Bodystep in the New year!! Don't think I posted that I passed my training?

So we are launching the new classes all this weekend coming, so choreography flying around in my head, we normally get a week to learn it but, o not this time, lets just do a week,why not add to Sharleesn pressure and make it the busiest two weeks of my entire life, :) :)

PRESSURE - some people fold, some people rise!!!
I WILL RISE !!!!! OH YES I WILL!!

Anyway enough of my rambling!! busy week and weekend ahead with work, lot of packing, sorting, arranging, foot and perhaps arm eating and somehwere in there I hope also to meet 'Sam in sling' this weekend for a coffee.

Hope you all had a good weekend

Days 49 - 56 - 8 weeks done

HI all

I hope you are having a good week.

Thanks for your comment in regards to my last post, nice to have the feedback and to know that I am normal in what I fel sometimes as others feel that way too!

Anyway, I forgot to give you my weekly check in, it's nearly round to another one. Although I do not expect a drop this week as Boobs are back to swollen state and I am holding lots of water due to the monthly horrors approaching.

So end of week 8, trained extra hard last week, lots of runs (5), normal classes taught and 4 weights sessions.

Weekly loss - 0.7kg
Total loss after 8 weeks - 8.1kg

Scales slowing down but inches are still coming off, will measure this weekend and post losses.

17 SLEEPS!!!!! I am so excited i'm eating my own hand!!!! will have to peck at the keyboard like Sam!!

I'll check in soon with this weeks progress! Quarterly Workshops (Les Mills)this weekend though so busy busy busy.

Have a good remainder of the week and weekend.

Do You Truely Believe You Can?


Firstly I would like to say thanks for the
comments girlies!

Hilary - Thanks for always congratulating me when I do my weekly update!! I always stay up to date with you via blogland. Just read your latest post, re: Bodyattack, you just cannot beat it for some high intensity cardio can you? I love teaching it, I love how strong and powerful the moves are and then throw in the old school aerobics feel, what more could you want? I may be a little biased?

Amy - Thanks for your encouragement! Your going well at the moment too! I read about your wonderful trip!! You must be sooooooooo excited.

Magda - thanks for dropping by. I am going well at the moment but it has just been a hard time getting to the point where I just put my head down and did it! Thanks for reading my post from the 27th, I was having a funny day that day and it di help to get my feelings out! I'm glad it helped, go back and read it when you 'need' to.

mvn4wrd - thanks for reading my blog and commenting, glad the above mentioned post help you too.

Arna - thanks for the song!! it made me sing it and smile. It is getting tough as I am pretty much down to the last few kilos, but, I will keep pushing as everyday I feel better, better with how I look, better with how I feel and my vision of how I see things has changed for the better.


Yes my trip is approaching and I can't explain how much I have missed my mum, step dad and sister over the past two years, sometimes it has hurt so bad I just cried, BUT I have 4 whole weeks with them and my new baby neice! I will make the most of EVERY DAY!! then I plan to have mum out here next year so it will never be that long between visits again.

ANYWAY, to my title today............

Having gotten your comments and especially in relation to Magdas. ALL YEAR, from Jan 2nd 2006 (couldn't start 'diet' on Jan 1st as it's a public holiday and sadly to me that used to signify 'nice' food, oh how my relationship with food has changed!) there were hard days,

  • there are days I questioned whether I should should give it all up and stay overweight,
  • there were days after my operation and the second operation I wondered whether I would get back to intense exercise,
  • there were days I just 'couldn't be bothered',
  • there were days I got mad with how society could judge 'fat' people and just wanted everyone to be fat,
  • there were days I would catch people judge me for how I looked (I was 10kg overweight but my profession does not seem to sympathise whatever the amount)
  • there were days 'I didn't believe I could'
  • there were days I felt like the crappiest mum because I was so consumed by me and how I felt
  • There were numerous other feelings, too many to list.

I spent all year 'fighting' until i made a decision, same as all the other decisions this year, to eat clean, exericse and finally put all the demons to rest, but, the difference this time was.....

I HAD TO TRUELY BELIEVE I COULD DO IT , nothing can take your belief away, not a single person, not a peice of food, you have to believe that you can reach your end goals, if something sways you, the belief has to be there to get you back on track, if something 'ruins' your plan for the week, you have to have the belief that this won't ruin the rest of the week, you have to beleive you are in control.

Sorry to ramble but just wanted to get this down so perhaps if 1 person ust can't seem to find the belief right now, maybe it will come, because you have to know when I say the old cliche

IF I CAN DO IT, YOU CAN I so mean it, i have had my ups and downs, struggles etc and I do truley believe that we can achieve, but we have to want it and believe it deep down.

Anyway, I will be back over the weekend with my weekly update on weight, food and exercise.

Here's hoping for a good one!

Have a great weekend all,

Days 43 - 49 / 7 weeks down


I just cannot believe how my body is responding now, daily changes occuring.

So pleased with this weeks result! ..........

Weekly loss - 1.0kg
Total loss for 7 weeks - 7.4kg

I have 4 weeks until I go home to the UK and although that was my original target to lose for (also so I could be and feel happy about how I looked and felt) I do feel now I have crossed the line and it is more about reshaping my body, eating well and feeling in control, than losing 'WEIGHT'.

Ideally I would drop a little more on the scales but hey the jeans I wore when I left the UK fit me again, my arms and shoulders have shape, my abs are starting to show, I feel strong and my confidence is getting better again.

I have been training hard and eating well so will continue on the same path and see what happens.

I was at a bad point there for a long while, most of the year in fact, no control, no dedication, couldn't summons the energy or the inclination to do this and the weight was creeping on not to mention some of the other stuff that happens when you are not in control and your body is just not at a good place.
I was worried there for a while that it was going to creep all the way back on.

Luckily I have gained control.

I have a whole new outlook and a whole new set of goals and aspirations for the coming year, I feel excited again and 'ALIVE'.

OTHER STUFF

Hubby's first week oficially in his new job, all good there.

Bryce has in-term swimming for 2 whole weeks and is going well so far.

Maddi is being Maddi, hard work and demanding but hey, thats kids for you! she is just a litlle darling most of the time so can't complain.

27 DAYS til we leave for Christmas in the UK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am already not sleeping due to the excitment, I don't mean I can't get to sleep, I wake up from a sleep thinking about it etc then I just can't clear my head!!

ARRGGHHHHH!!!! I hate losing sleep, I NEED SLEEP!

Anyway no more news, hope you are all well.

Thanks to those who comment, I love reciving them, I'm actively trying to return the favour by commenting, if you can all take the time to let us in on your life, then I surely can find time to comment?

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!

Days 36 - 42 - 6 weeks down

Well well..... last weeks little loss must have been the impending period just as I thought.

This week I dropped another 1.6 kg
Total loss for 6 weeks - 6.4kg

Going well and really trying to pick it up a bit now as I'm sure I'm gonna start plateau-ing soon! People have been commenting this week, almost like there was a switch and my body has just instantly changed shape! YAY, feeling good.
I am so pissed at myself though for messing about playing mind games with myself, basically all year! What a waste, all that energy. We live, we learn! No more messing, no more wasted time, lifes to short.

Was sick at the beginning of the week with a bad stomach but soon back into it, 2 weights sessions in, a 45 min run along the beautiful coast path from North Beach to Hilary's and back and taught Bodyattack and Bodybalance as usual.
My week starts on a Sunday so have already got 1 Bodyattack, 1 Bodybalance and a run on the board.

Other stuff

4 weeks 5 days until the UK!!!!!!! I am peeing my pants already!! I'm soooooooo excited.

Fitness First had a 'Party in the Park' to celebrate our 6th club in WA (the one I'm GFC at) on Saturday, the purpose as to promote a active and healthy lifestyle to the community, everyhing was free, lots of kids stuff - face painting, mini bootcamp, Perth Glory Soccer, Group Fitness Demos (I did Bodybalance on the Foreshore! it was fab), mini tennis, salsa demos, bouncy castles, etc etc.
The weather was fab, the staff were all pump and did well to last all day in the heat and people that came along seemed to enjoy it.

Pic of me and Maddi (she wanted a FF singlet on !)
before I left to go set up.




















Hubby has offically started his PTC position! Going well and he starts on his own properly this week.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the results from the bloggers that were at the National this weekend. I find it so inspirational that people have the dedication to train to get up there on stage.

Well thats about it from me, have a great week,

Days 29 - 35 / 5 weeks down

Hey to all that drop by,

Well this week has been ne of my best weeks for food and exercise!!

So a tad dissapointed when I get on the scales for my weekly weigh in and it tells me
0.4kg loss!!

Yes I can hear some of you saying, 'it's still a loss', agreed and I am greatful it is still dropping BUT I have worked so hard this week.

Going by the size of my 'bossum' and severe pain there , I would say my period is imminent. If my boobs have swollen then I must be holding fluid elsewhere?

Anyway perhaps it will all pay off next week?

Weekly loss - 0.4kg
Total loss for 5 weeks - 4.8kg

Other stuff

6 week today until I get on the plane to the UK!!! I hate planes, but I'm so looking forward to getting on this one!

My sis is getting excited!, e mails to tell me how long it is etc.

I have been doing my BODYSTEP training today and have another full on day tomorow including our presentation and assessment! ARRRRGHHHHH!!

Will let you know how I go.

OMG!! How could I forget! Guess what?

WHAT I HEAR YOU CRY!!!

My hubby went for an interview last week to become a PTC (Personal Training Co-ordinator) with Fitness First, we heard on Thursday that someone internal had gotten the club that had the position, but of course that left that club open and my bestest boy got the offer!!! YAY!

He took it and now has a permanent, Part time (30 hours) position, the few less hour than full time will allow him to stay active in his personal training so great news all round. WELL DONE HUBBY!

Kids are fine, my little one is getting excited about going on the plane! she thinks that those that have visited us here in Oz and that we have aken back to the airport to go home on the plane are still on the plane!! isn't that just cute, funny how their minds work!
I pity my sis, if we go on my bubs theory, she's been up there flying around for a year, gone through the last 5 months of her pregnancy and given birth up there! :)

No more news for now, other than to say WELL DONE TO ALL THOSE THAT HAVE HAD COMPS RECENTLY AND GOOD LUCK FOR THE NATIONALS & NO!!
I love reading all about your journeys and your blogs are so inspiring, I hope to be there myself 'one day'.

Have a great weekend and good start to the week.

PERTH!!!!!!

A view accross the
Swan River, looking
at the city.



The club that

Going well this week, all exercise on track, personal training session this morning for my weights! Food 100%. I think they call it - On a Roll............ lets hope I don't hit a hill!!

Little loss, better than nothing? Days 14 - 21

Hey all

Just a quick update as I am a little sick again, bloody throat infection this time.

Anyway week 3 done and a loss of 1/2 a kilo. so all up 3.4kg total for the first 3 weeks.

Not bad considering I fell off for the day last weekend! also have been sick so only got in a few cardios and 1 weights session.

Good news though - I am now having 2 personal training sessions a week (with Hubby!) to make sure I do at least 2 weights per week. Had one on Tuesday and my butt was soooooooo sore, bloody squats and walking lunges.

Anyway only 9.30pm and I'm off to bed, two classes to get through in the morning.

See ya soon

Sunday, October 01, 2006

Week 2 - DONE! Days 8-14

Hi All

Just want to say a Big Thanks to all who commented, its great to receive comments and I must start logging in more so I comment back!! not just read everyones blogs!

Arnajade - Your right I can definately lose this 9kg!! Feeling a little stronger everyday I get through! Thanks

Rebecca - Yes we can!! Keep pushing and we will make it hey!

Carolyn - You have done soooo well, 21kgs is fantastic!! Keep pushing on.

Rene - Yes, I know that I have done it before so I do know I can do it, I can be so energy zapping sometimes if you don't stay focussed and you let negative energy around you bring you down. All good now.

Hey CJ - I did hang in there and got through the week just fine! Thanks

Hilds - Thanks Hilds I have been doing the day to day thing and it has helped me this time round, focussing on just getting through one day isn't as big a task as a week.

Anyway.............

Weigh day was Saturday - 1.2kg lost!!!! YAY

Total so far - 2.9kg, clothes feeling a little difference, lost the bloaty flat look, feeling great.

I have taught 7 Bodyattacks this week so that well and truly took care of my cardio, although I did manage to throw in 2 powerwalks pushing Maddi in her baby jogger.
3 bodybalance classes, so that takes care of alot of things! Flexibilty, mobility, definately my Core strength training and my relaxation!!

My only down fall is I still have to introduce my weights in, that is my aim this week without fail!! so thats what I need to be reporting on.

Had a great week this week. My son Bryce just keeps blowing us away!! He won his 200m at schools sports day the other week and came second in the 75m sprint so he got choosen to represent the school for the INTERSCHOOL ATHLETICS CARNIVAL, 8 schools go and compete.

200m isn't really his thing but he ran so hard, bless him and got third!!

75m Sprint is more his race, he got 5th last year and was disapointed in himself! he didn't really take in that he was now against the best from each school, I did all the 'its the taking part' talk etc.

Anyway, this year, bang goes the gun, my hearts pumping so hard I think I might pass out, I remember how sick I used to feel when competeing in stuff!!

Hes running his little 10 year old legs off, as he approaches he looks to be in third!!!!
I start going crazy!! shouting and jumping up and down etc (I had Bryce very young, therefore I'm alot younger than alot of the other mums and they all appear to be quite reserved!!)
then he must have heard me or found something else as he just gave more and came 1ST!!!!!!!

He was so chuffed!, it is the taking part, but dam, its good when they win!!! :)

Sorry for that rather long
and probably boring for
some, proud mum moment !!


Here is a picture of Bryce
and Maddi on the day,
Bryce is holding his
First place ribbon up!!



Anyway, thats my news for this week!

Have a great week and I will try and post mis week and again when I have gotten through this next week! Hopefully with another success on the scales!

Have a great long weekend!

One of those days!

Hi All

I have had one of those days when I could have easily just eaten my way out of feeling crap!! BUT would have ended up feeling Crapper!! Do you know what I mean?

I am a pretty confident and strong person in certain areas of my life.

I am raising two children that are a true gift to me, I have the FULL help and support of my gorgeous hubby and although I feel the strain of being a Mum sometimes, the good outweighs the testing times. This is one area I feel confident and strong in, my love for my Children and Husband is unconditional and no matter what I will ALWAYS put them first.

The other area I feel confident and strong in is my choosen career. I always put myself out for others I work with, I always give 100% to each and every class I teach, I am passionate about what I do and helping people to enjoy exercise and change there exercise experience for the better.

The one area that I feel drains me more than anything and is such a waste of my time, is worrying constantly about how I feel, look and how I am perceived, not only to others but more to myself.

For those who are reading and don't know my history I have been up 100kg and down to 55kg no once but TWICE!

Here is the 100kg picture !!!
ARGHHHHHH!!

I can't believe I'm posting this!!!
This is around 5 years ago now.









With alot of hard training, eating right I managed to get down to this.........


Since this photo I have gained 9kgs!

I cannot explain how dissapointed I am in
Myself!

But the thing I am most dissapointed
about is the fact that I gained this last year
and I have spent ALL OF THIS YEAR
trying to get rid of it!!

MY GOD ! can lose 45kg but I can't get
my head right to lose 9kgs? what is that all about!?





Anyway the reason for all of my ramblings above is that fact that today I can say I am NO WAY, NEVER, EVER going to waste my time, my emotions, all of my effort on worrying about whether I can do this, whether I can lose 9kgs, whether I can feel confident in myself and how I look.

I have 'started again' too many times, I have said 'this time i'm gonna do it' too many times.

I cannot afford to waste any more time making excuses!! I have to get there and I have to enjoy life.

I am feeling very powerful and strong today which is why I have written this blog, I am truly focussed at the moment, my training is going well, I am eating clean and I feel unstoppable. I cannot honestly say that in all my other 'attempts' this year I have never felt this way.

I am going to seize this moment and continue to push on.


'A ship in the harbor is safe. But that's not what ships are built for.'

Navigating your ship

Taking the easy way out is, well, easy. Human beings naturally stick with their normal routines because they offer feelings of security. But by staying in the same routine, you miss out on new opportunities.

If you are waiting around for your goals to just fall into your lap, it could take awhile. But your goals are achievable- if you're willing to break from the norm and cast your ship down uncharted waters.

My aim, my goal, is not only to lose the 9kg that seems to be holding me back, but more importantly to be CONFIDENT and STRONG in all areas of my life, so I can raise Confident and Strong children.

Thanks for listening

Just a few words........

What we can learn from our path to the present?

Often in moments of discouragement or depression, it's easy to feel that your life is going nowhere or that change is impossible. But it's simply not true!
Take a minute to think back over your life.
Chances are, you'll see a lot of growth in all of your formative areas. From childish playing, to youthful impulsiveness and adult reasoning, life sure has taken you on a rollercoaster hasn't it? When you were young, someone probably asked you what you wanted to be when you grew up. If someone posed that same question to you now, what would you say?
Let this reflection be an indicator of your dreams

DAYS 4 - 7 - DONE!

Yep one week down! 10 to go!

Day 4
Taught Bodybalance and Bodyattack.

Day 5
Didn't teach today, didn't do anything infact just worked on all my paperwork, really could have got a cardio session in and will try and put this into place for next week.

Day 6
Taught Bodyattack and trained weights. Had a sunbed, watch THE WEST COAST EAGLES go through to the GF and then popped out and brought Maddi and Bryce a new bike each!

Day 7
Teaching BB today, will do a cardio seesion and hope for weights session too!
We were all up at 6.30am so we gave the kids a quick cereal bar breakkie and then went to the park (FOR PERTHIES - CARINE ) the sun was shining, birds singing, it was fab.
Just had breakfast and I'm now gonna get ready to go and teach.

Oh yeh!!! Weigh day is a Saturday, so I weighed yesterday and I have dropped 1.7kg this week. I am going really well at the moment and am so shocked I am still on track and its sunday, usually I blow it on a Friday night or Saturday and thats it for the whole weekend !

Better on Monday so taught a Bodybalance class

Day 2
Did a weights session at the gym in the morning along with a short session of cardio
Then in the evening I taught Bodyattack, my true cardio session!

Was going so well with daily reports until the crazy weekend hit!!

I have been teaching in launches and covering classe all weekend!

Cardio - Bodyattack, bodyattack, bodyattack and one more bodyattack, 2 sat, 1 sun, 1 mon.

Weights - No time!!!!

Other - did 2 bodybalances somewhere in there! Both Launches, which went well and the members sem to like it.

Food - OK, now for food. decided to allow mysel a fre meal at the weekend due to the amount of HIT cardio I had done /would be doing with Bodyattack.
Had a chinese with my dad and hubby whilst watching WEST COAST EAGLES, could only eat a little bit!! too rich! and fatty.

Had a few treats on Sunday also - small milky way and a packet of chips. :( felt bad after!

Back on track now, my weigh days are going to be Saturdays, so will let you know if I get a loss this week.

Anyway must dash, last bits of chorie to learn, masseage to have, little girl to play with etc etc
