Motivation is Peaking!

Goal Weight: 80kg
Current Weight: 99.0
Started my journey 6/01/15 - 7kg lost so far

Another half a kilo gone for good! Pretty happy with that loss this week as it was shark week! My trainer for the 12 week challenge told me to aim for a kilo but with AF due I knew that wouldn't happen - stoked to have lost at all.

So 4 weeks of the challenge done, and 3.2kg lost over so far. I told the trainer that my goal is to lose 8kg in the 12 weeks, but I'm secretly aiming for 10 (12 would be amazeballs).

I also have a goal of being 98 by the end of March, so i need to go hard out and lost at least 1kg this week. I know I can do it if I'm REALLY good.

But enough about scales, I'm feeling really good, physically & mentally, and I'm starting to notice that my clothes are getting looser. We are due to do measurements in 2 weeks, so it will be interesting to see what they say.

The exercise plan amps up a bit this week - so here is my workout plan:
Monday - 30 min power walk, 5 min cool down
Tuesday - 30 min power walk, 5 min cool down
Wednesday - 10 min warm up, 25 min hill repeats, 10 min cool down
Thursday - 30 min walk, 5 min cool down
Friday - Aqua Jog
Saturday/Sunday 75 min power walk on one of those days

Monday/Wednesday/Weekend are the challenge plan, the rest is just bonus exercise :)

Have to go hard to get those goals!!

Have a great week!

DOUBLE DIGITS!!!

Goal Weight: 80kg
Current Weight: 99.5
Started my journey 6/01/15 - 6.5kg lost so far

Sorry I have been a bit slack on the blogging front - moving house is so stressful!

Have hit a few mini goals, and lost 1.6kg since my last blog! Feeling really good about my journey at the moment, and my 12 week challenge is really helping.

The biggest news? I HIT DOUBLE DIGITS!!! Woohoo! Nice to not be in the hundreds anymore. Now to make sure the numbers keep going down.

I'm exercising 3-4 times a week, and loving the feeling I get after a good workout - endorphins are awesome :)

Time to revisit my mini goals
Goal Weight End of Feb - 102 (Got it! 101.5)
5kg lost this year - 101 (Got it! 16/3)
5% lost this year - 100.7 (Got it! 16/3)
Under 100kg - (Got it! 16/3)
Goal Weight End of March - 98
10kg lost this year - 96
10% lost this year - 95.4

Feeling pretty happy with my progress so far!

Have a great week!

Next Mini Goal: GWEM - 1.5kg to go!

Sunday 1 March 2015

1st week of the challenge done!

Goal Weight 80kg
Current Weight: 101.1kg
Started my journey on 06/01/2015 – 4.9kg lost so far

So week 1 of my 12 week challenge went well - 1.1kg loss! I got a bit lower on Saturday morning, but had a slip up with dinner last night, which will have me a bit bloated today. Still happy with 1.1kg though!!

It means I'm only 100gms off 5kg lost though - bugger it! Nevermind, will smash it next week for sure.

Have to squeeze my workout plan in before Friday this week, as we are moving house/cleaning old house on Fri/Sat/Sun. So my plan is this:

Today - Aquajogging (sore muscles, need a recovery session)
Tuesday - 30min powerwalk
Wednesday - 10min warm up, 20min stair machine, 10min cool down
Thursday - 60min powerwalk

Tues/Wed/Thur workout plan is from my 12 week challenge. Today's aquajog is just an extra session. I know that I'll burn some extra kj's doing the move too!

Sent my weight in to the challenge trainer this morning, now to wait and see if I made top 3 biggest losers this week!

Have a great week!

Next Mini Goal: 5kg - 100gms to go!
