I burnt a huge 1099 calories yesterday doing a combination of walking to and from a training course, then 45 mins at the gym and 45 minutes at pilates. I also got my Silver Body magic award which I am really chuffed about! I have also changed my gym plan around and so I think I am going to aim for 1 hour on Wednesdays and Sundays and then 45 minutes at the gym on Monday followed by pilates. My sister and her husband and my nieces arrive from the UK in just over 4 weeks so I want to try and loose as much weight as possible by then.

I weighed in this morning and I have lost 0.4kg which takes me up to 9.8kg loss (1st 7.6lb) which I am super happy with!
