THAT number!
So, since my first blog I have dropped a kg - Lindsey hates me weighing myself frequently, but when I put my pants on this morning I could feel the difference, so dashed over to the love/hate machine and confirmed my suspicions. So, I am 1kg off THAT number. I get to 124kg and then get stuck and that's when I "go off", so I am determined to blog my way through THAT number this week and next. I have very few goals this week. Firstly to pack a salad for lunch every day - 3 days so far have managed to do so. To get to Physio where I am learning to walk and the physio says she is straightening my spine after a fall in 2006 that creates recurring injury to my left knee. So far have made all the appointments - that truly is a miracle! To do the glute excercises every day to strengthen my butt so that my walk can "even out". And finally to write down POGS NEXT week - it takes me a while to get there - I need to think about it for a while ;) Not very ambitious, but manageable for me right now as I have a massive workload with all of Africa in my sights, and follow ups with Docs that I am just not getting to and have postponed for a couple of weeks. So that gets my attention, and next week POGS! How are you two doing?

My week has been a little more hectic and "tornado prone" than I would have liked. I just quit my job and I gave 1 month's notice but now that the time is approaching all hell is breaking loose!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that you are starting with small steps. One of my bigger challenges is that I tend to over-do things - I expect the week to be perfect (HAH! Like that's possible)
Age helps - one of the advantages - steps become slow and small without even trying! ;) Hah, tornado prone sounds nice - does that mean the tornado doesn't actually hit? I like the idea of being prone rather than actually surviving tornados! When is your last Dat Debbie? What will your days look like then?
ReplyDeleteMy days will be taking the kids around for the summer - museums, beach, pool, hikes, parks, cleaning their rooms, cleaning the garage....he he he.
ReplyDeleteBut I've been talking to the kids about exercising, staying active (they have taekwondo & are now up to 5 hours a week (1 hr per day Tues-Sat)) but also eating better. I bought some "kid friendly" cookbooks and I'm going to let them each pick a recipe per week & then on that chosen night they will help with the cooking & dinner presentation. They seem excited about it.
