Day 35 [17 March 2012]

Breakfast ...

3 wholemeal crumpets with extra lite cheese [it crumbles when you cut it] + a cup of tea.

A challenging weekend!

In a few hours I'm off to Sydney to celebrate my sister Carolyn's 50th birthday with the family. It'll be a challenging weekend. Mexican tonight then Thai tomorrow for lunch!

I'll be good though.

Updates with pictures will be posted tomorrow [Sunday] afternoon ...

So, here we go ...

A small skim flat white on the the way down to Sydney.

Lunch ...

My sister Carolyn made Mum and I a very healthy Omelette + Salad.

Afternoon Tea ...

A cupcake [yes, a cupcake] and a cup of tea. We were visiting Aunty Bub who I haven't seen for 20 odd years [Linda and Stephen's wedding actually]. She's 78 and got her daughter to specially go to DJ's and get them. I coundn't say no!

Exercise ...

A 50 minute walk around Wollstonecraft & Crows Nest ...

Dinner ...

Bad stuff!

Mexican up in Crows Nest.

No need for words ...

A skim flat white after dinner ...

Day 34 [16 March 2012]

The Penultimate Weigh In! ...

Yep, it's the end of week 5. The time has really flown.

After starting @ 99.2kg I'm now down to 90.1kg which I'm extremely proud of!

Remember, no weird diets. Just commonsense stuff ...

Moderate exercise for an hour a day [every day; NO EXCUSES!] and eating sensibly.

Exercise ...

Both Toni & I are off today so we thought we start off the day with a walk. I did my usual 6.7k's and Toni followed another route. There's no point us walking together. The pace I do, I'd leave her in the dust!

Breakfast ...

As a treat, we met up at Longbench Cafe for breakfast; out first one out since the start of the challenge.

We had 2 poached eggs on sourdough toast with a skim flate white each.

Lunch ...

We were out 'n' about most of today so it was a footlong Subway Vegie Delite [just to prove this is not about starving myself!] for lunch.

Afternoon Tea ...

A skim flat white at the Homemakers Centre @ Kotara.

Exercise ...

My second 6.7k for the day. I love the walking. Strange isn't it!

2 glasses of red wine ...

I haven't touched beer for 5 weeks and won't for the another week.I love a beer but am not a big consumer of the amber liquid. On average we'd go out and have 5 or 6 schooners every 2 weeks.

We don't keep any beer in the fridge but do try to keep a few bottles of red in the kitchen. We like to have a bottle a week. It's supposed to be very good for you!

Dinner ...

Toni, you're a great cook! Tonight was the one of the most tastiest meals I've had.

It was a seafood marinara & pasta dish. FU$K IT WAS GOOD!!!!!
