No formal exericse this weekend!

Friday, May 17, 2013

So my run has been rained out 2 nights in a row. If I had really wanted to go then I would have, but I didn't. Nevermind!

I have no formal exercise planned this weekend. VERY strange for me! I figure I'll be getting enough exercise this weekend doing the following things-
Saturday - Running a sausage sizzle for 6 hours, which means standing and running around for the whole time. Totally cardio
Sunday - Moving house! I figure lifting boxes and furniture will count as my strength workout!

I have been given more responsibility at work this week. A co-worker has been having health problems, and will be away from school for some time. I have been asked to take on her duties (non teaching), as well continue with my own. My current duties include
- Teaching 27 children
- Sports coordinator
- e-learning coordinator in change of 60 iPads and all related matters, including the sausage sizzle (fund raising) and parent evenings to explain the new method of learning.

I'll be adding
- Library duties
- IT room

I don't mind at all and I am happy to help out while my coworker recovers, but it will be a lot of work and I already have a lot on my plate. I will manage though, and it will be awesome stuff to add to my CV.

So that's me! My boyfriend arrives tomorrow night, and I move on Sunday. Busy busy!

Things that are good in my life (pics)

Tuesday, May 14, 2013

I had a bad and frustrating day yesterday. I am up early (5.30am) today so I can head into work early and get some work done. But, instead of blogging about everything that went wrong yesterday, I'm going to blog about the good things in my life

1. I have this guy


2. I'm at a good weight. I can't remember the last time a guy was able to pick me up, but Luke does it all the time and says I'm not heavy at all.


3. I have a good job that I love, and that is challenging


4. I am fit. I can run, do boxing, lift weights, and anything else I feel like doing.


5. My man and I are moving this weekend. We are both employed and able to afford a nice house.


6. I'm happy

4 days until my boyfriend moves up



I can't wait!!

P.S - I will write a blog soon that is a real blog. I have been so super busy at work that I haven't had time to do anything, including teach! I'm working on a HUGE project instead. I miss my kids and can't wait to be back with them on Thursday.

May goals

Friday, May 03, 2013

Weight - I am thinking I might want to drop a little more weight. I stress a little, like a kilo or two. I know some may try to talk me out of it, so I'm gonna stop you right here. I will do it slowly and sensibly. My last kilo took 6 weeks, mainly because I wasn't trying to lose, I was just not eating enough to maintain. I need to eat a LOT to maintain. So, basically I'll cut out a snack and I should lose a little more very slowly. If I don't lose anything then I'm not going to stress.

Nutrition - Cut out a snack, as above. And I should probably eat less chocolate. As with last month, just because I can eat more chocolate doesn't mean I should.

Cardio - Run a 30 minute 5k. I have a 5k this month but I'm not expecting to run it in 30 minutes (aiming for 32) because it is a weird course, both on and off road with hills and grass and gravel and mud and a rifle range. Yes, a rifle range. Not even kidding.

So I'll try and run a 30 minute 5k on one of my biweekly runs. I only and 30 seconds to shave off!

Strength - Bench press my body weight. Do an unassisted pull up
