Upper Body ouchies

Well day 2 of BFL! Had a good breakfast of a boiled egg, fresh fruit salad sprinkled with rolled oats.

HEaded to the gym to do upper body. OMG! I have never done so much for just upper body. I usually do 45 mins weights, but that includes both upper and lower body! Have to research and check with PT about which exercises are specifically for back/shoulders etc :)

OMG...as I type this, Charlotte is next to me doing "Burpies" that I did last week in the back yard and adding her "now run". If anything, I am setting a great example for my kids :)

I had my first Myoplex shake today!! THe chocolate one that Jadey sent me. I definitely LOVE that! They only have vanilla at until the shipment come in at the shop I have already paid for. I really want the choclovers one I think! I might have to take you up on getting some from you Jadey until the shipment comes in. I can either pay you for them or as you suggested, send some back to you when they come back. Either way! I need to make sure they send the bars though! I am trying out some from Coles (different varieties) and will do for the moment, until my order comes in.

I found it hard yesterday to eat the 6 meals. I think it is because the breakfast was so full on. I think I would change this morning's breakfast to no egg, but putting cottage cheese over the fruit to add to the protein (is that right??). Ummm and would the rolled oats be carbs??

Okies....gonna play with the kiddles as it is back to work for me tomorrow :( Don't feel like I have had a holiday at all! Roll on Christmas I say!! :)

Starting Body For Life tomorrow!


Well after reading and lurking, I have decided to start Body For LIfe (www.bodyforlife.com) . I am pretty pumped thanks to the girls at LITS- more so for the body sculpting over the weightloss...! I have been away at a conference in Caloundra this week and ate my way through 4 days away from my babies and soulmate! All good...I called it my last hurrah! ;)

Soooo I shopped and have the menu up for the week. I will do the 12 week challenge for me. Will probably finish a little early as the last week hits Christmas. But how hot am I gonna look this Christmas!! :)

I ordered the books online and am waiting for them to arrive and had ordered and paid for the myoplex shakes online, only to get the call and email to tell me that all the stock is stuck in a container on the docks!! Luckily, the ever sweet Jadey, sent me up some samples to try. Might be a blessing in disguise, as some of the girls have said they don't like it :)

Anyway, am so going to kick butt with my weights. I am pretty good with my cardio, and when I have my (NEW) personal trainer with me, she pushes me with my weights, but now I will go hard (as Jadey says!!)

Soooo wish me luck!
