New You - Week 2


I am now half way through week 2 of New You, and I'm aching all over. I've just returned from another session with my personal trainer, and a "Skin consultation" from Urban Sanctuary Spa. The Spa is situated on Plimmer Steps, off Lambton Quay, and is beautiful inside - however I almost didn't make it!! My legs were hurting so much as I climbed the steps to the front door. I must still be recovering from Monday evening's session - especially lifting 90kg up and down with my legs. I'm looking forward to all the products arriving later in the week so I can try using them. Apparently my skin is in quite good condition for someone of my age - it is quite "plump" - is that a nice way of telling me I have a fat face??? I heard a fantastic quote recently about wrinkles - did you know that the best way to get rid of wrinkles is to fill them with food? :-)

I have now amended last week's blog to show my weight and body fat - I wasn't keen to make my weight public, as I haven't even told my hubby what I weigh, but I guess he'll find out now.

I spent an hour yesterday looking through the Ezibuy catalogue, and had fun choosing all the items I'd like to try on. I look forward to having a trying on session soon - could be there for quite a long time.

I have been really good with my daily exercises and have managed to do them every day except last Sunday - I gave myself a day off as I was worn out after going to watch All Black vs Canada (what a brilliant game!!). I've even done them on the days I've been to the gym for a session, so hopefully all this hard work will pay off. When I had my measurements done again on Monday, I had lost 700g weight (to add to the 5kg I had lost before New You started) and 4cm off my waist - not bad for 10 days. I have had to put my normal pair of jeans away, and am back into a slightly smaller pair that were hiding at the back of my wardrobe - yippeee.

Looking forward to week 3 :-)
