Well, we think we have finally discovered the on-ramp to that highway and off we go ... bwaaa ha ha ha. I've had a good day today. No, no, stop that applause now! I know its been a long time in coming, but todays a 'keeper'! ;0)
For starters, my eldest son returned to school after holidays, hello at least 40 minutes walking!!! Secondly, my youngest son - 'terror tot toilet trainer' - ran off to the toilet down the hallway ... at least forty times today, so there must be calorie burning brownie points for me somewhere, and lets not forget the continual crouching down when accompanying him to the toilet!! And thirdly, he only had one 'accident' and his 'number twos' made it into the porcelein - ITS BEEN A DARN GOOD DAY!!!
Oh and I almost forgot Number Four ... I somehow lost 600grams in 24hrs. There was no exercise, I am the zonked out phelgm monster at the moment and my scales register - 118.0kg. Thank you, I'll claim that :0) My next thing to do is to work out my goals as my birthday quickly approaches. I'm thinking 114.9kg by July or if I stretch it, maybe 109.9kg by Ekka time, early August, thats 8kg in 4mths. Its do-able but maybe high-hoping. On the positive side is, its getting cooler and I always find that I succeed better at these weight loss journeys when its cooler... mmmmm soup time!!
Then there's September ... FUN RUN TIME!!! Ohhhhhh, PICK YA SELVES UP OFF THE GROUND PEOPLE and STOP THE GIGGLING !!!!! Bwaaa ha ha ha ha ;0) For those not in Brisbane, our city has a 'fun-run' called "Bridge to Brisbane" every year, normally the first Sunday morn in September. Back in 2001, I attempted and finished it .... in a time of 2hrs and something ... eat ya heart out Steve Monegetti!!! Bwaaa ha ha. But I think I was 20kg lighter than what I am now too. The race starts at the bottom of the Gateway Bridge and you skull drag your backside up the bridge first before another 10+kg straight run or waddle ;0) Yeah, get the wicked bit out of the way first! But one of the truly wonderful memories I have in doing this race is, you finally get to the peak of the bridge and suddenly a jumbo jet roars over your head ... its just minutes from landing at Brissy Airport. Absolutely wonderful moment in time in my life. So, I have 4-5mths to think about this race. If I get under 110kg, I just might do it, not sure. Just another 'goal' to think about. Also, I want to see if the "St George Dragon" is still entering. The year I went, she tripped and couldn't get up, with 5000+ roaring up behind her. There was arms and legs going off like a cockroach who had overdosed on Mortein ... sorry, its a 'you had to be there' type of moment in time LOL
Ugh, what happened to my early night!!! Bwaaa ha ha ha ...
