Indulgence of Chocolate at Easter

Hey everyone, just wanted to wish you all a Happy Easter. The only time of year that it feels alright to eat chocolate and boy, am I going to eat it - a lot.

At the moment I am not going to think about my weight issues, I will worry about that again on Easter Monday. Back in fighting, yer same old routine day in day out, constantly battling the bulge.

But as of now I am totally only thinking about one thing and that is chocolate, my favourite food of all time, along with cheesecake.
The best chocolate is Lindt and Cadburys, the cheaper brands just don't cut it when it comes to smoothness, you now the type, when you can place a small piece in your mouth and just let it melt, don't chew it just let it dissolve on its own. Cheaper brands tend to have a funny taste about them, perhaps its just me, I like quality when it comes to chocolate.

We all know that dark chocolate is better for us. Above 70% cocoa is recommended. I'll try and have some (lol).

HAPPY EASTER...........HAPPY HUNTING.........

Over Weight- I Give Up

Yer, that's how I feel right about now.
I was totally feeling great because I had lost over 1kg in the last week.
On top of the world and nothing could stop me. But oh how things change, suddenly the 1kg is back and my spirits have just been smashed, all that hard work gone, just like that, just like you flicked the light off.

I totally am over trying to keep weight off, it really gets me down, forever worrying about what to eat, what not to eat. OVER IT.......

Perhaps I'm just feeling a bit low because I am full of the flu, coughing, sneezing, aching all over, runny nose, you name it I've got it.

I'll pop another pill and see how I go tomorrow, those pills seem to make everything seem better. (Give me more).

Wii Fit - My Answer To Exercise

I have it, The WII Fit. My daughter gave it to me for my birthday. Totally loving it.

I have lost 1.7kg since starting. I try and do a workout - step aerobics, hula hoops, cycling and then finish off with Michael Jackson dancing. I totally feel great after doing it. I did nearly 1000 steps in one session of 8mins on the step board. Suppose to tone up the butt area, in my case, something that really needs a lot of work.

I have weighed myself every morning at 6.30am and put in that I want to lose 5kg in two months, can't rush these things. So lets see how I do, oh I must tell you that I have been doing other exercise as well, not much, but I am totally trying to do 10,000 steps a day. I made 12,000 the other day after doing the step aerobics.

With the winter months approaching fast, I really need to get some weight off, so I have room to move through those cold months, you know what it's like, the smell of hot food and you tend to eat more, lots more. Not that I want to put any on at all but it is a known fact that we all tend to gain a pound here or there during winter.

Dancing Madly

I have been dancing madly for an hour to Michael Jackson. I put my pedometer on and have reached 4 thousand steps just in that one hour.

This WII console must be good for you, surely. My heart rate has been right up there and I am not thinking about food or watching TV.
Computer games aren't so bad, after all.

Dancing The Weight Off With WII

It's back, yes I finally got a WII.
My daughter and husband have bought me a WII for my birthday. It came in a pack with the Michael Jackson Dance game.

Now that's a sight. Don't laugh. Me movin' and shakin' is not a pretty site.
After I set it up, which took me a while, I danced to THILLER. My heart was pounding that hard that it felt like it was going to jump out my chest. Even my husband had a go.

The footy was on tv and if anybody knows me well, they know that I love my footy. But I didn't watch the game, instead I danced. Little bit sore this morning.
I told my husband that I would have the THRILLER moves all down pat by the end of the week.

I cannot see how this could not be good for you, dancing instead of watching tv, just has to be good to move that weight and shift that fat.

I told my brother that I received a WII for my birthday, he said "What are you fifteen or something?"
I didn't tell him that I wanted it for the exercise so that I could try and get the weight off. He just wouldn't understand.

We're all kids at heart, aren't we?

Massage and Detox For My Weight Loss

I was in heaven. Was this going to help my weight loss, probably not much.

It's my birthday this month so my mother gave me a voucher to a massage clinic. 2 and 1/2 hours of relaxation, just what I needed.

First I had an anti-aging facial, yer, I hear you, I probably needed that. My face felt smooth when finished and I felt so refreshed but of course this usually costs $95 and there ain't no way that I will pay that much to get my face done.

Next I had a massage, remedial. Only 1/2hr and could have been a lot deeper but it still felt so good.

Detox Foot Spa came next, this was very different, never ever heard of it before and very hard to believe.
An electric current travels through the water and some how the consultant can tell by the colour of the water what is happening in your body.
My water was very good, (unusual I thought), except that I had traces of metal in it. Don't ask me how the metal gets in the water but trully, it was there.
The young girl asked me if I smoked, "NO", did I eat a lot of can food, like tuna and "Yes" I had a bit of tuna over the last couple of weeks but I do not eat much canned food.

Producing a list of all the metals that could be found in our body, the young girl said these items can have metals in them.
This list was nearly three pages long and from what was on it, well, you would never eat food again, so you would starve to death. Now this is something that I won't be doing, starving.

After I got over that shock, I had a pedicure. Massage for my feet, loved this immensely. Always have liked my feet being rubbed.

Now the only complaint that I had was it was not 2 1/2 hrs of relaxation like the brochure said, it was only
1 1/2hrs. I probably could have had an hour massage, now that would have been nice.

Hey, don't get me wrong, I really did enjoy it all and really appreciated my present. It is something that I would never buy for myself, so

THANKYOU TO MY MUM FOR A WONDERFUL GIFT.
