Twiggy's Diary

[Twiggy]

Morning all

Had a great day yesterday .. DH went to the pub for lunch and spent a lovely couple of hours over 2 glasses of wine and a meze plata. Great night out last night too ... love Thai food

Terrible nights sleep though :4633:- DH developed a bad cold during the night and snored like a (insert loud sounding thing here) and kept me awake ... so spent most of the night cursing him ... feel a bit bad this morning now I realise he has a cold :sign0007:

Forgot to say my Wii fitness coach came Thursday. I've done the fitness assessment yesterday and my thighs are killing me this morning .... god knows what I'll be like after the proper work out lol

Maya recommended a few sessions a week of 15 minutes ... is that really long enough for a session? I changed it to 3 x 30 minute sessions a week, but just wondered what everyone did??

Not sure what my plans are for today yet ... gone one last birthday treat tonight but will be back on the wagon for the rest of today and then on strict 100% for rest of the week hoping for a sts But if not - I'm not that bothered, had a fab Birthday and it's worth it

life is for living and what better excuse than your own birthday-usually try and make mine last a couple of weeks!! have a good weekend.
be interested to see how the fitness coach goes as asking for one for my birthday in a few weeks time

Hiya Twigs.
Glad you had a fab birthday,meal sounds divine...
To start with i would recommend you do the 15mins workouts hun,i thought the same as you at first but it depends on what area you work on.
The cardio workouts i would do 30 mins but the lower+ upper body etc i usually do 15 mins and you can really feel it the next day or 2!
Try it for 15 mins for the 1st week and then increase week after..
have a nice day xx

 

[Twiggy]

Thanks gals

Fuzzy - I'll change it to 15 mins .... gonna try one now - wish me luck

Morning all

Well the Birthday is finally over And I'm back on the wagon with a vengeance today The scales show I'm up 3.5 So have a lot to do between now and Wednesday!!

I enjoyed my first proper 15 mins with Maya yesterday, arms and legs ache today though! Was going to do another 15 mins today but have been doing housework and am knackered. We had a bag of Cat food under the sink from when we had a cat, I kept meaning to give it to my sister but never remembered, so thought right that's it - will throw it away. But when I picked it up it spilled all over the floor ... apparantly a mouse has been helping him self to it ... it and mouse poop was all over the inside of the cupboard ... so had to have it all out clean everything and disenfect the cupboard. Luckily it's only bleach, washing tablets etc under there. No sign of the little blighter though!!!

It's soo hot out today ... love Summer !!!

Hope everyone's out enjoying the sunshine

Ohhh - was that my fault for not taking the cat food when you offered it to me? oops! On the plus side, I can rent you Willy who's an excellent mouse catcher at a very reasonable price!

AND my scales were up MORE than 3.5!!! I didn't have that much! Jeez!

 

[Aaleigha]

Well the scales being up today wont reflect come weigh in day - most if not all will be fluid
Holly cat can come round if you like - all she will do is look for the mouse - she is frightened of her own shadow and will do a runner if she sees it - mind you she lives with three sighthounds so is no longer scared of dogs

hope you are enjoying the sun

Hey Twiggs,
Hope you have a great BH Monday, don't worry about those scales as you know they change so much. 2 days of being supa good and workout with Maya. Your'll pull it back xx

 

[Twiggy]

Hi all

On a strict 18 point day today ... a drop of 8 points should hopefully give me a kick start

Was semi good yesterday, but find it really hard to point a roast dinner ... so not too sure.

Just waiting for my brekkie to go down and will do 30 mins with Maya Then down to homebase to buy a humane mouse trap ... bloody thing is having lots of fun running round my lounge this morning ... little cutie it is, but I'd be happier if it was being cute somewhere else!!!

Breakfast - Kelloggs Sustain and milk - 4.5
Lunch - erm ... 4.5
Dinner - chilli - 7.5
Snack - Muller light - 1.5

[omnomnom]

You need to borrow MommyB's cat! That wouldn't be very humane though Nor would she take it outside. Mice are very cute though, aren't they?

 

[Twiggy]

Yep very cute - he just sat on the floor and cleaned his little face ... bless

Right .. Maya awaits! xx

 

[Tootiefrootie]

Morning Twigs.. I hope Maya was good to you and didnt get you to chase the little mouse out of the house

 

[Curlz]

Hiya twigs.
Just popping by to say "hello" and well done on the workouts with Maya..x

 

[mommyB]

I'm told chocolate is the best thing to tempt them with-bit like me really!! we used fruit and nut to catch our squirrel!! the danger is you only need a bit for the trap-what you gonna do with the rest-LOL

 

[Twiggy]

Morning all

Well I feel totally back in control today

After 30 mins with Maya yesterday, also did some gardening then Sha popped round and we did some Wii Fit hula-hooping and balance games - so a good day for AP's

My abs are hurting this morning too after all the crunches Maya got me to do ... love it!! Will do 15 minutes tonight on her recommendation!

Food for today

Breakfast - Honey loops, milk - 4.5
Lunch - Jacket and Beans - 6
Dinner - Chicken Ceasar salad - 8.5
Snack - Muller Light - 1.5

Total 20.5, plus 2 litres of water

I really enjoyed my extended Birthday weekend, but really looking forward to getting back into the zone and seeing the pounds burn off. Scales were still up a couple of pounds this morning, so looking at a gain for tomorrow, but it was worth it And it'll be gone soon!

[ugg]

Morning Twiggs,
I'd expect to gain over my birthday week also. As long as you enjoyed it and you get back on it I can't see the harm in that. Congrats on being totally focused and all the exercise with Maya, she kills me with the crunches and plank!
Hope you have a good day xx

 

[mommyB]

this will be me in a few weeksi'm already thinking chinese buffet!!!
