Been AWOL

Sorry my friends Ive been lacking both time and inclination this past couple of weeks - Ive been haphazardly reading but been mostly too slack to comment and just couldn't get round to actually posting myself. Ive given myself a kick in the bum tonight and forced myself to do a quick update. All is well chez Zanna but just so busy between work, home and study. Theres nothing like impending visitors for getting your A into G and catching up on all those jobs you've been putting off. So theres been lots of tidying of cupboards, - linen, under the stairs, wardrobes (my clothes are spread over three wardrobes in three rooms!) So its now only about two and a half weeks till Mum, Linda and Frank arrive (Linda is my sister and Frank my B-in-L)so getting quite excited. No 1 son got a promotion at work - well deserved I think and needless to say I'm bursting with pride. No 2 son just got back from Brazil earlier this week. I haven't seen him yet as hes staying with a mate down the Sunshine Coast but will probably be back up here early next week. Eating has been quite good apart from this need to have a bit of chocolate now and again - strange as its not normally something I crave. Drinking has been good too - settled into quite a nice routine of having a wine or two on Friday and Saturday nights but nothing the rest of the week. However the weight doesn't seem to be going anywhere very fast - I'm down a further .5kg since I last posted - so that's 1.3kgs since I started trying properly. Hardly setting the world on fire and finding that its becoming very hard to shift that middle roll - think its one of the perils of menopause! However I have been going to the gym three mornings a week and really enjoying it. I do circuit with weights on Mondays and Wednesday and Thursday I do cardio - one day interval walking on the tready and then the cross trainer, the other day the bike and the rowing machine. Definitely feel better for doing it and although the weight not moving much - I had lost 2per cent body fat when I was reassessed last week. And now a couple of photos to finish off Hairdo from a couple of week ago - love it when hairdresser does it but cant replicate it to save myself Down the beach last Friday night for Curtis 3rd birthday Josh with his scary monster face

Apologies for the lack of apostrophes - that key doesn't appear to be working - but just been able to get the spell checker to fix most of them. Hope everyone is happy and well and having a good week

Love Z xx
