It’s on!

Two words: sibling rivalry. My sister Allie and I are very close, but she has a major competitive gene that I seem to have missed out on, until now. Allie recently did the ‘Biggest Loser’ at work and lost a whole lot of weight to get down to my weight. Damnit. We have both now [...]

45 DAYS!!!

That’s all that stands between me and US$1 massages on a Thailand beach, the waves crashing, hot hot sun and a chilled, fruity cocktail in my hand. My God. As my boss would say… palatial. To be honest I don’t think that’s even a word, but the way he says it just oozes magnificance, relaxation [...]

Summer exercise schedule

So my life advisor, Iain, told me I must plan my exercise hours per week rather than just fitting them in when I have time – because as his proven point – I will always find something more exciting to do to fill that time. So very true for most of us I’m sure. As [...]

at least it’s not pickles and peanut butter

Lately I have been craving everything I’m not allowed; chocolate, cake and biscuits, and I’m not normally a sweet-tooth. I was even going to make cupcakes today, but have now decided it would be murder on the diet and instead am going to mow the lawn – anything to avoid assignments! I was talking to [...]

Slap on the hand for you, Miss!

OK, I should not be allowed to sit at home on Sundays and do assignments anymore. I must go to the library from now on. I have munched on food I DO NOT NEED all day! Coffees, juice, peanut butter on toast, quiche, sprite, muesli bars, apples (OK, they’re allowed!), and now I’m into wine [...]

the skinny…

So I know I have spoken often of the bikini body I am trying to get. I thought I would write an entry and post a couple of photos. I know, I’m addicted to visual progress!! It’s what works for me. When I look back at old photos, my God. To be honest, I never [...]

Kick-start that shit

Yesterday mum arrived home with a juicer. It is my new best friend. It is the kick-start I needed for my weight loss before my New Year’s excursion to beach and bikini-land (read: Thailand). So the toning and tightening of the body has begun as of today. I started this morning off with a carrot, [...]

A bear, however hard he tries, grows tubby without exercise. *

So remember that entry I wrote where I talked about toning up the bod? Yeah, well zilch has happened. But in my defense, I did write that entry before I was struck down with the killer-flu (worst flu I have ever experienced!!!).  But now that I have woken up this morning feel fantastic it’s time [...]

Time to tone up the bod!

My uni friends and I have planned to go away to southeast Asia for a group adventure at the end of the year. To say we’re excited is an understatement! There’s about ten or eleven of us going and in a way it’ll be our last big bang as we finish uni and head into [...]

So close I can taste it…(in sugar & fat free of course!)

In the last 10-12 days I have been absolutely slack on the exercise and healthy eating thing! Such a slacker. I mean, I did go for a run, play two games of netball and mow the lawn. But that’s not even close to the amount of exercise I was doing. I’ve also been craving every [...]
