One Lump or Two?

Hi,

Sorry not very good at getting on here sometimes! Apart from that though I am quite proud of myself. It was the school fair today and there was a barbecue and Indian food as well as Ice Cream and the inevitable cake stall. I avoided it ALL!

Yesterday I tried on some clothes which have been too tight. The jeans fitted perfectly, the trousers went on okay but were still rather tight but the dress, which I didn't expect to zip up slipped on fairly easily. Unfortunately looked all lumpy around my waist and bottom.

I decided it's time to do sit-ups. I have done some of course, and was intending to do more but somehow I didn't. Not now though. If it wasn't for those lumpy bits the dress and the trousers would be fine.

Today I had another bash at the HIIT training which I talked about the other day. This time I did more stretches because last time left me rather sore. I also thought that rather than walk in between I would jog. The pace is about the same but would mean I wouldn't cool down so much between repetitions. I also did more stretching after and did 100 sit ups.

Needless to say I ache!

Well, here are my diet diaries for the past few days. Something may get added to today but I'll let you know if it does.

Enjoy the weekend,

Kim

Half-term not half -fat!

Hi everybody,

Sorry this is overdue. Half term was lovely. The weather was great, it was my daughters birthday and we visited lots of relatives. So far so good.

In the process I ate four slices of cake, some low-fat ice cream white bread, a sausage, rice and potato salads with dressing, some creamy chicken and a roast dinner. Other than that I stuck to the usual salads, fruits and porridge which I have been attempting to change to.

That was food wise, drink wise I didn't have enough water, I drunk a good deal more coffee than of late and I also consumed 2 glasses of punch, 8 glasses of wine and three glasses of port.

All-in-all while it wasn't guilt free I did avoid many of the naughties I could have had. I also continued with my usual exercise routine.

Because of my guilt on Thursday when I got back from my Mum's I jumped on the scales. I'm not sure that this was a good idea as I had put on two pounds. By Sunday I had lost this again so overall it wasn't too bad but I'm sure glad that there aren't too many half-terms. What will I do in the summer holidays!

Have a great week,

Kim
