72kgs yay

So l am now back down to 72 kilos. This is normally when the going gets tough. So from here on out l will be glad if l can loss a kilo a week. It's mothers day in four weeks, my aim is to be 68kgs by mothers day. I cleared the shelves yesterday at the supermarket of a product called Chang's, super lo-cal wok-ready noodles. A 200g serve of noodles is only 10 calories. I love the fact they are 10 calories and that all you need to do is drain, rinse and then throw into your stir fry for the last 2 minutes to heat them up. It really helps to bulk up my lunch and dinner without the calories. There is a million recipes for these noodles and l've tried a few. One claim is to swap your pasta for the noodles, l've tried it and l will not recommend. In salad, soups, stews and stir fry's yes, its a fantastic alternative.

Off to do my most enjoyable work out today, shopping!!!!! People think that they only work out you can get is at a gym. They are very wrong. Being fit and active isnt about going to the gym. It's about walking instead of driving, talking the stairs instead of the lift, walking over to tell a person who is only three stalls away a message rather than emailing them, playing basketball with your kids, dancing while you do the house work, hanging the washing out, bringing your groceries in.

All the actions we do to function as a person is all a work out. Unfortunately most of us live in a box mentality, we wake up on a box in a box, get up and watch a box, while our breakfast is cooked in a box, we then jump in another box to travel to another box, then sit all day in a box in front of a box to go home and repeat the cycle all over again. How long has it been since you had a no tv day or a no car day? When l was a child l couldnt wait to get home to be rid off the confounds of the classroom, l hated being stuck inside all day, as soon as l got home l was out the door, riding my bike, shooting hops, roller skating, even when it was raining l would spend hours under the carport playing down ball. Why did this stop? My aim is to try and get this back into my life, rather than sitting on the couch and watch some one else have a life l would much prefer to be doing something that meant l had a life. Escaping the box!
