So on Wed this week I started my herbalife weightloss plan. Its going well so far. I do miss the food, but I do feel better for it.

After the baby I need to lose just over a stone - so here goes.

Keeps you eyes on the blog I will keep you posted on my progress and what I am doing to lose it.

Long but exciting day!

What a day it has been! Friday's are always rather mad for me - I am covering a shift in work on a Friday, have to say I really am beginning to feel the pregnancy kick in while at work now - defo getting tired.

Today I met up with an old friend Nat who I have not seen for ages, we grabbed scrambled eggs on toast in a lovely wee place on Byres road called 3 Steps to Heaven - you have to try the ice cream in there! :-)

I then had the 3rd week of my birthing class - I sware its like AA for pregnant ladies. Today was all about labour positions - so we did have quite a bit of a laugh. Weirdly I feel very chilled about the delivery - rather looking forward to it to be honest, think the classes and the books have helped prepare me, and in a strange way I feel in control and hope to take it in my stride??

Work today was manic when I got there after the birthing class - our Dermalogica full range has arrived - so me and Clair spent ages sorting it all out - me being in work until 11.30pm tonight trying to get t all sorted out - hey and its still not sorted :-( the things we all do to look great :-)

I am off now to watch some trashy TV before I hit the sack.

Have a fab weekend

News

Hi everyone!

Sorry it has been a while! I promise to be better.

Well most of you will know I am 7 and half months pregnant and very excited about the arrival of the little bundle in spring.

The first 3 months I was terrible with sickness - but I have to say I have been fine from 16 weeks onwards :-)

Will keep you posted on how it is all going

6lb off!

I am happy to report a 6lb loss, feels fab to get it off :-) I have to say I have not been a saint, I had a little (250mil( glass of wine at the weekend (very bad of me) and I have some chocolate!!! But hey, still feel fantastic and still got 6lb off - there is still a couple of days to go on this so I am hoping for a wee bit more :-)

Will keep you posted

Another week bites the dust

I love the Friday feeling :-) I dont know why as I normally work on a Sat :-)

So today I was up at silly time - was around 5.45am - I might have hit the snooze...

I had my shake before I ran out to my BNI meeting at 6.30am. I don't find it easy to eat at that time in the morning - it actually makes me feel sick, but I know the importance of getting it in me - so drank it I did. I felt great at the meeting this morning. I am chapter director, basically means I chair the meeting each week.

I got out of the meeting at 8.30 as I had a meeing with Gary, who is sorting my HR. Had yet another shake as I knew I was busy with PT sessions and Pilates till later.

It is now 6.45pm, I am sitting in starbucks in Edinburgh, as I had a bit of work here today - I had a skinny latte and I am still not hungry has yet :-) I am thinking of going for some nice food  in Edinburgh later...will fill you in.

Food today

2 shakes loads of water and 1 coffee.

I went for a 40 min run with Jak this afternoon and did a Pilates class

Have a great weekend

Manic Thursday

Ok so its 1 am on Friday the 17th July. I had most of the day off today as I was sorting out my flat after moving. Spent most of the day moving things - which I have to say is really hard work. i ended up going to take a nap at 6.30pm tonight, to then find myself at 11.30pm! I was so annoyed to have slept all that time, but mostly because I had no dinner! I am up at 5.45am as I go to my BNI (business network meeting) at 6.30am every Friday - so I am now wide awake, and up in just over 4 hours :-( Anyway, I have just eaten some Chicken and pitta bread - I was starving! All I have managed to eat today was my lovely shake in the morning, water through the day, 1 plumb and my multi vit - NOT a good day on the eating side - as eating not enough is worse than eating too much! I can't wait to get settled into this new flat - so I can have some normality back.

I have my shake all prepared in the fridge for when I get up in the morning - it really does keep me going through the day - not only do I feel satisfied, but I also can feel the goodness. You know that way when you eat crap you feel crap!? Its the same when you eat good food, you can feel the good going in.

I think tonight I will prepare my email newsletter (feel free to sign up on www.sjfitness.com for the free newsletter) as i am not tired - also need to get my clothes sorted out for the morning.

Night to you all
