A euphoric high...


More positives for this week.. (besides still super high from yesterdays results). I think my sister realised how mean she was to me the other day because when she came home from uni yesterday she was super nice to me and (I have never worn makeup) gave me all her make up she no longer uses. She encouraged me to wear a little and just stuff I could manage. (Ironically, I've never worn make up because I don't think I'm pretty, my sister keeps saying you wear make up to look better so g
o figure...) She curled my hair and helped me get ready.(cue picture on the left, in my defence the picture didn't turn out all that well) Since I wasn't home to celebrate Mothers day we went out last night for dinner to a favourite restaurant of ours. And partially just to be happy for my loss this week. It was a great night, family entertainment wise. I had steak and kidney pie. I totally regret it. Before I got home my stomach ached and I know this sounds gross but it literally went straight through me. Eurgh. I don't think my stomach could handle the fattier pastry and rich gravy and the bigger portion that I'm not used to. My low fat version of that pie tastes just as great and is way better for my stomach. So I think I might take out my post weigh in food treat and reward myself with some thing else...

On the wii front.... I got a solid total of ten hours on the wii fit ( even though it didn't count an entire hour once, damnit) And it turned my little time piggy bank bronze! TA -DAH. Also I did 15,737 steps yesterday. I wore my pedometer to the gym and did like 5000 steps there and felt like that was kinda cheating so I pushed forward and did my usual 10, 000 steps on top of it. That made me feel extra good.

It's good Friday and I am feeling good. I was even up an hour earlier and showered and all that jazz. I love being the only one awake in the morning :D right I must move my arse. Things to be done...

HAPPY EASTER.

Oh, it's nice to see your body has such a lovely face. :)

Sounds like you made some great discoveries and had some very poignant AHAs. Excellent.

Your love of the pedometer has me thinking about it ... your enthusiasm is infectious.

lol look at you all tarted up! great wii progress

WonderLori said...

Woo, hoo! You look great! I'm really proud of you, young'un! Two things, very quickly. First, I've never had steak and kidney pie. We don't get much of that around here. Can I have your low-fat recipe? Second, think of me fondly if you watch the new Doctor Who (6:45 GMT on BBC 1) as I won't be, what with being in a different country and all.

You're looking lovely. Glad your sister turned around.

You make a home made diet friendly steak and kidney pie??? Impressive. I think that is a future post! :-p
