October catch up

This weekend I had so many people tell me how well I looked.  Not gonna lie, I was overjoyed.  But I still have some more weight to lose.

Bust - 35
Waist - 25
Hips - 31
Weight - 7 stone 135

Weirdly enough, once you get into the swing of things it's fairly easy.  I no longer like fast food.  The last few times I've had KFC I've thrown up and when I had McDonald's the other day I also really struggled to keep it down.  That being said, my sweet tooth still keeps on piping up - I just need to ignore it.

I've also become a bit of an exercise junkie.  As Elle Woods once said 'Exercise gives you endorphins.  Endorphins make you happy.  Happy people just don't shoot their husbands, they just don't.'  She's so wise. At Aelfa we do a warm up every day which is nice and gentle.  Then on Monday its Ballet, Tuesday Aerial Hoop, Thursday Cardio and Friday Pole Fitness.  I love them all.

So here's what I am going to continue to do on my mission to lose weight:

  • Drink plenty of water
  • Plank for one song
  • 1 minute of scissor kicks
  • 2 minutes of crunches
  • 2 minutes of press ups
  • 1 minute of criss crosses
  • 2 minutes of squats
  • 2 minutes of lunges
  • 1 minute of star jumps
  • 2 minutes of hip extensions
  • 2 minutes of hip lifts
  • Read food labels
  • Improve metabolism by eating foods like: apples and turkey
  • Avoid the bad stuff
  • Embrace the good stuff
  • Think before I eat.  Am I actually hungry?  
I will get skinny.  I will make your jaw drop.
