Week 7 check in.
This week has had its ups and downs. On Saturday we celebrated our anniversary and my good news with a surf (prawns) and turf (steak) dinner with wine. Sunday we both felt a bit off, we think from the prawns, although they were fresh along with everything else. So I chillaxed without doing any exercises. Monday I was alright to do a bike ride and managed to do all my steps.
I did have a bit of a sooky lala moment on Tuesday. In the morning I was playing scrabble on FB with a friend. Whilst playing I told her I was contemplating going to an exercise class prior to mermaids, yet I felt like going to sleep as I was so tired. We had a bit of a discussion where she encouraged me by saying it would look good on my FFF check in, after a bit of to and fro she convinced me to go.
Well after lunch I put on my gym gear headed to the exercise class where I had a ball. Then did my hour long mermaids which felt so good to relax in the water after the hour workout.
I owe a big thank you to this friend for talking me into attending this session.
Then on Thursday I was sore from all my workouts during the week. I was going to give my bike ride a miss, then Bear told me to go have a gentle peddle to iron out my kinks. His words not mine. I think it would take a lot more than a bike ride to iron out this girls kinks. LOL!
My achievements this week are.......
bike ride 3
aqua exercises 2
over 50s exercise class 1
tai chi 2
osteo exercises 6
she'll be coming 'round the table steps with the puppies 6
Pass go, receive a swat.
I have done some decluttering this week in the kitchen, by rearranging my saucepan cupboard and pantry. Threw out some food items which were passed their use by dates.
The scales didn't budge this week. I did compare my measurements from week one to week seven which I'm really happy with the results. Down centremetres all over. Woohoo!
Have a good weekend everyone. Going to be a hot one here with total fire ban.

Lindy,
ReplyDeleteYou had a great week. I had to smile about the "slap happy" Bear at your house. Try telling him "I love you, too" when he swats. Sam never misses an opportunity these days.
Sending Hugs Down Under,
Ella
Thank you Ella, I will do that next time.

Dinner sounded lovely, sorry it didn't feel so great later.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad your friend convinced you to go. Usually when I dont want to go to a class and I do, Im happy that I did!
Iron out your kinks, LOL! If only it were that easy, right?!
You have done AMAZING with all the exercis this week, holy moly, how do you fit that all in?
Thanks Lea. We are retired and Bear is also into exercising with healthy eating. So its easy to find the time to do it all.
