Thank GOD it's Friday!! I am so tired and so ready for some help with the kids on the weekend. The last few days have been good in that I have been doing my exercise. Last night I went for a walk and took my daughter with me in her pram, it was a bit scary actually because we left at about 8pm and as we live in the outback street lights are minimal and when I walk on the outskirts of town I am worried a dingo is going to jump out from behind a tree and eat us. Oh well, at least I am not worried about criminals.... The night before that I went for a walk on my own but there was a severe lightning storm not too far away so I headed back earlier than planned, still took 35 mins though. I actually measured the distance I was walking last night and was quite horrified to discover that it was only 3.4kms and took me 45 mins when pushing the pram AND I thought I was going fast. On Tuesday night I had asked my neighbour if she wanted to go swim 1km with me at the pools, it was a goal of hers since she had progressed from only being able to swim 400m to doing 800m in a week. We finished the 1km and I asked her if she wanted to keep going and managed to get 1.2km out of her, now that is an effort, she tripled her distance in such a short time, I wish I could do that.
My eating has been going well too I suppose, I have stuck to the points, it isn't hard when you are allowed 31 of them (I'm breastfeeding). I feel too guilty to use up my saved points, hell I didn't exercise tonight and I feel guilty about that too but I will make up for it at the pools tomorrow. I still have 5 points left tonight but it's way too late to eat them, so now I have 37.5 in my 'bank' and 2 days left til weigh in.
This morning we went to the playcentre and as I hadn't had breakfast I thought I would have a toasted sandwich and a coffee. ONE sandwich and a small cappuccino = 10 points!!!! I found that out later, who would have guessed? Next time I will stick to my Special K.
If anyone actually reads this, I am sorry for my randomness, I am not quite used to this yet so don't know how to put it in more of a flowing form.
