Wacky week

This week has been kind of all over the place. I’ve had some sort of gastro virus which keeps hanging around. Started last Sunday with a bit of a funny rumbly kind of tummy, worked up to V and D by Wednesday then settled back to being rumbly and the odd quick visit to the loo and it’s still a bit like that today. This has meant that my exercise became non existent for a couple of days and my food intake has been up and down depending on how the tummy was behaving. But the good news is that I still managed a 500g loss. Reviewing the week Alcohol – none Points – probably OK – some days low and other days a bit higher Tracking – forget that – felt too sorry for myself Walks – two Gym – none – hoping to get back t here tonight C25K – managed one day of Wk 3 so started Wk 3 again this morning Water – not as good as I usually am Steps – about 33,000 but between having a day off sick and generally not exercising, I didn’t have my pedometer on for most of the week. I had a bit of a try on session this week – you know when you dig out your smaller clothes and see if they fit yet. And the big surprise I got was that they did – hadn’t realised I was back down to that size. So I’ve been mentally planning what I’m going to take to Hong Kong with me – it’s so much more fun when you’ve got lots to choose from. Have also been replanning our longer holiday to the US later this year. We were going with friends but their plans have changed and although we may meet up with them for a few days essentially we’ll be going on our own – which doesn’t worry me at all. Bloss and I holiday really well together - he submits to a bit of what I like, I tag along to anything that particularly interests him and the rest of the time we’re in perfect alignment - just having a ball! We're both 'people persons' so get a lot of pleasure meeting and talking to the local people, other travellers, in fact just about anybody! Now that we’re going on our own we’ve revamped and extended the itinerary – currently it looks like Brisbane to San Francisco for 6 nights, Las Vegas for 8 nights, Los Alamos (to see Bloss’s No 2 son, wife and our 2 grandsons) between 5 and 6 nights (will probably have to overnight in Albuquerque for one night), then 3 nights in Cancun, Mexico then 4 nights in Havana, Cuba, then Mexico City for 2 nights, Los Angeles for a couple of nights then home (almost 5 weeks). Once our Hong Kong trip is over this next one will be coming at us like a train (only 12 weeks away then)…..WOOHOO AND YEEHA!!! Well don’t seem to have much else to say so will go and do what I’m paid for now! Aim for this week is to try and reach my next goal – 10% loss. Hope everything’s going well for everybody out there. I notice I’ve got quite a few Canadian and US readers – hello to you all and would love to hear from you. Take care everyone and have a great week.
