my journey to health

So this week we had friends to stay, we had my husbands 50th so the weekend was a bit of a write off with chips and drinks and bad food, though to my credit I ate corn chips with salsa rather than piles of chips and dips and I did drink vodka with coke zero, not premixes!!

Monday came and our friends were supposed to be going away for the day, but the didn’t – Boom perfect excuse to not go to training with amy, tuesday my daughter went on spirit of adventure, another perfect excuse. Wednesday morning I woke up in pain and with diahorrea, due of course to the ammount of alcohol and fatty foods consumed with freinds – yet another perfect excuse for no exercise!!
Friday my daughters birthday and just like that an entire week with no exercise!!

As the week wore on, my eating got worse, partly because one of the children staying with us is Anaphylaxis  to eggs, and this really threw me, I was unable to have my eggs for lunch and the end of this routine left me floundering, what the hell did I eat if I could not eat my eggs??

So here I sit on sunday night, I have eaten chips and pizza, kfc and indian, I have eaten gluten, had dairy and all those things on the bad list of my diet, and not a single bit of exercise.

But you know what, it is okay, because I am not giving up, tomorrow I am getting up and I am meeting amy at the track and I will continue, it is only a week it is not the end of the world, and I will get there, I am not a fat person, I am a healthy fit person stuck inside this fat body and I am determined to claw my way out of it!!

On a side note I weighed myself a couple of weeks ago and I was down to 140.9 I am picking I am slightly more than that now, so I will not weigh myself again for a couple of weeks !!

My trainer and friend amy posted this and it made me cry, it also made me think of my friend kylie ann who used to walk and walk  and walk with her 150 odd kilo body, pushing her babies in a pushchair, she is one of those people who truly inspire me and one day I will be able to keep up with her
