Out with the old & in with the new...

Hello everyone :)

 

WOW it feels like forever since I last wrote a post!

 

October was a crazy busy month with college and just life in general!

Weight watcher wise – I’m now only 5.5lbs from goal yay :)

 

 

 

*Proud moment alert*

 

I received my 11^th silver seven :)

 

In my last post I mentioned that I was going to give filling & healthy a try, well I did and I have to admit I love it! Okay I’m not following it all the time; I’m interchanging between the two approaches

 

 

What Filling & Healthy has done for me:

I’ve stopped eating bread *the occasional WW wrap is consumed*, the reason I stopped was the bread I used was Slimsters and after ringing up WW I was told for now it was not considered F&H as it hasn’t been tested yet….sooo I decided if I could only have WW bread and/or nimbles I wouldn’t bother…pretty good going for someone who could have up to 8 slices in one day don’t you think ;)

• My consumption of sweet/savoury treats has dramatically decreased…Something about the fact you’d have to use your weeklies if you want anything that isn’t F&H makes the desire go away!

 

• I’m feeling good in general, the less treats the better I feel, healthier!

 

• My exercise has decreased in the last few weeks because I have been busy literally 24/7 but that is changing from next week onwards and I cannot wait…Back to business as the saying goes :)

 

Today (November 18^th) I ran my first 10km race! Three months ago I didn’t run…I exercised loads but I could not for the life of me run…Today I feel fantastic and sooooo proud of myself! I hadn’t ran in two weeks, I have sinusitis but I did it and I did not stop I kept going, and I think I could have kept going for another 5km! I completed it in 80minutes 40seconds….yes okay it might not be a super fantastic time but hey this is my second run and the first time I have ran a distance of 10km (previously my longest distance was 9.2km) so I am on cloud nine! Extremely proud of myself and this is only the beginning :)

 

As a well deserved treat I’m booking in for some personal training classes for the next 3 weeks, commencing Monday. It’s my 23^rd birthday on the 28^th so I think I’m due an early present! I would love to have my gold card by Christmas; it would mean the world to me. I joined weight watchers in May 2010, if I could begin 2014 as a gold member it be magical!

 

 

Looking forward to the next few weeks exercise wise…on the 4^th week I’m flying over to the Netherlands for 5 days to see my boyfriend so I would love to be a few lbs lighter by then, just so I can feel even better about myself (and oh so my boyfriend can remember how fabulous his girlfriend is :P)

 

 

Oh and I cannot forget December 7^th, the night a group of weight watchers are heading to Tullamore for a night for well deserved fun and drinks and god only knows what else…cannot wait…definitely an incentive to be a little slimmer by then :)

Also ladies we'll remember this on the 7th and regret it on the 8th ;)

 

and maybe this too...:P

 

I just said it was about time I make a little update on Diva’s journey!

I promise I won’t leave it sooo long again,

Until next time,

Grá :)
