6 October 2008 (Day 36)

On this day I had my weekly fitness workout.  It was great to let of some steam while training.  It really helps with the stress I’m currently going through.

7 October 2008 (Day 37)

Nothing really important to report, except this being one of my hardest days.  Had a couple of things to take care of and I was really exhausted.

8 October 2008 (Day 38)

It was a reasonably good day.  Nothing else to report.

9 October 2008 (Day 39)

Busy day at work and other things that needed attention.

10 October 2008 (Day 40)

Today’s been ok so far, but I’m not enjoying my work as much.  I might be looking for something else next year.  But it all depends on how things develop.

I had my first “reward meal” last night and it’s nice to treat myself to something nice.  I’m happy with my overall development though.

Will be posting again next week.  Have a nice weekend all!

Last Friday I watched Oprah and got this recipe from her show with Dr. Oz.

Dr. Oz says he makes a breakfast drink for himself many mornings that he calls his green drink.

What’s in Dr. Oz’s green drink?

• 2 cups spinach
• 2 cups cucumber
• 1 head of celery
• 1/2 inch or teaspoon ginger root
• 1 bunch parsley
• 2 apples
• Juice of 1 lime
• Juice of 1/2 lemon

After everything is combined in a blender, this recipe makes 28 to 30 ounces—about three to four servings. Oprah takes a sip and is pleasantly surprised. “It’s a glass of fresh,” she says.

Dr. Oz’s second drink might not be as pleasant, but it’s still important—a shot of cod liver oil. “First of all, cod liver oil has the right kind of vitamin D in itvitamin D3. That’s why people who live in the north lands who don’t get any sun at all can still survive. It’s got the healthy fats that you want in it,” Dr. Oz says.

I tried this drink recipe today and I have to say it tastes better than it looks.  You should try it!

2 October 2008 (Day 32)

Did the usual daily routine and kept by my nutrition for the day.

3 October 2008 (Day 33)

Had a few things to take care of but got through the day.  Nothing new happened on this day.

4 October 2008 (Day 34)

It was a hectic day.  Had to go shopping for a new pair of trousers, but without success as they didn’t really have anything I liked.  I did my weekly groceries which meant I had to buy healthy treats!

5 October 2008 (Day 35)

Today is a rather lazy one for me and I feel a bit restless.  I have a couple of things that need planning for the week ahead and I’m already feeling a bit stressed out.  So far my journey has proven to be easy, yet stressful at times.  At least I’m sticking to my fitness and cardio workouts every week.  I’m finally down two sizes so far but I still need to loose quite a bit before I’m on a healthy weight.

Thanks for the comments and nice posts from my buddies on here!

Cheers until next time

It’s been great fitting into clothes that I haven’t been able to wear in a long time

Tonight is my aerobics night and it’s going to be tiring, but it’s a really great class to attend.  I already know a couple of the usuals that come on a Wednesday.

Anyway, I’m at work at the moment and must carry on with it. 

I’ll write soon!

As promised, here are my pictures for this month.  I can clearly see a difference and I’m happy with the results thus far.

This will only make me more determined to continue on my journey for the next month

For the next thirty days I’ll won’t be blogging every single day because I’m having a few important things to take care of (personal reasons).  But I’m still sticking to my daily plan and will keep you all updated regarding my progress.

Here are my pictures for this month:

I’m down from 252 lbs to 250 lbs, a total loss of 2 lbs in about 4 weeks.

Peace everyone!

Today was very very very hectic.  I didn’t even have time for anything else!

The good news though is that I’ve managed to keep up with my daily nutrition despite the workload.  And this coming weekend I’ll weigh in and take my monthly pictures!

I feel great so far and although I’ve had a rough week, I’m happy.

Sorry for the short entries, but I promise to write more when I have more time.

Cheers

Yesterday was a very busy day.  And today I have an appointment later at night and I’m a bit irritated that I can’t go to the gym tonight because I just won’t have time.  Instead I’ll be going tomorrow.  Sometimes things just get in the way and then I get rather dissapointed.

But tomorrow is a nother day as they say, so I’ll just go with the flow.

I had a great workout tonight at my local gym.  It feels so great after you’ve been active for an hour.

I feel engergized and great again.  I’m going to shower now and then relax.

Thanks for all of your support and even though I don’t always respond to your comments, believe me I do read them and your blogs!

I feel very blessed for being able to feel part of a group where support, love, friendship and encouragement is the main driving force.

Thanks buddies!

Wow, time is going fast!  I’m already on my 21st day for this quest.  I feel happy that I can follow through on my journey without thinking otherwise.

My weekend was great and I’m feeling better.  I’m going to have a long hot shower and then I’m going to relax a bit.

In my previous post I’ve basically said everything that sums up my weekend.

Tomorrow it’s fitness time again

It was a great night!  We played bow and arrow games and I won first prize!  I didn’t even know I did so well (hahahaha).  It was rather funny when they called out my name and handed me my medal. :D  It was all good.

My outfit was perfect for the evening and I even met up with an old friend.  Since there were two groups to take part at the bow and arrow games, namely the males against the females, he got a chocolate bar as prize for being the worst shot (LOL).

I sticked to the salad bar and ate two pieces of brown bread.  I didn’t ate as much because I already had dinner at home before I went.

Well after the games and towards the evening I talked to this old friend of mine and it seems like there’s a date coming up *wink wink.

I’ll keep you posted.

Have a great weekend all!
