Lack of Exercise

7.45pm in the UK

So far this week everything is going well on the food front which is good. I was thinking how last week I actually ate quite badly but I kept my portion sizes in check so I am actually extra pleased with myself for being able to lose weight. I just really hope I continue going down this week. One thing I haven't been good at recently is exercise. At the weekend we went to Brighton to see Biggy's family which was really nice but on the Sunday we didn't get home until 12am and couldn't sleep until around 1am. Starting your week tired really isn't good as it's so hard to catch up... only today do I feel like I am back to normal!! I wanted to start the week with a good week full of exercise in the mornings on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and do my Zumba on Tuesday and Thursday which is my normal routine but I haven't done it all. I have been to tired in the morning and the weather has been so amazing that I haven't wanted to do anything in the evening. I also have to admit because I am now losing weight a little voice in my head says...don't worry about the exercise, you are losing weight already you don't need to do it.... now I know this isn't true because even if I lose weight I want to tone everything up... I think if I was 250lbs but everything was toned and flat and firm it wouldn't worry me so much!! So if I can get to 182lbs with everything toned and firm that would be mega amazing.

The two areas I would love to firm up are my arms... nobody likes bingo wings.... and my stomach, mainly my pelvis area... I don't really know what it is but bellow your belly button where your womb area is. Ladies I don't know if you have noticed it but over the last few years I have some how acquired this pouch thing... I don't know if its just because I am over weight or what. For me its a real old ladies and fat thing... but I often see thin girls with it and I hate it. I find it so unattractive and definitely makes me feel very un-sexy...what it most annoying is I don't know what it is!! I found this exercise that I think is supposed to help and it was supposed to be my focus this week but I haven't done it. I will do it tomorrow morning though and I will do my zumba tomorrow night as well....I want to be toned and I want to be sexy!

I realised that when I get to 202lbs (maybe on Monday or the next Monday for sure) I will have lost 20lbs from my average weight and 28lbs from my heaviest. I will also be exactly 20lbs away from my goal weight. How amazing would it be if I could get to 182lbs for Christmas?

If I got to 202lbs by August the 6th that would leave me EXACTLY 20 weeks until Christmas... well there is a blatant challenge if ever I saw one!!
