T-12 weeks and the Christmas holidays

Merry Christmas everyone!

So i have been absence in the past few weeks but all is coming along nicely. The weight loss had stalled at 70kg but there was definately changes going on with my body. The waist has come in alot and there is less back fat LOL. Today I finally broke to 70 barrier (Santa came a day early). It was exactly what I needed to keep me on plan for tomorrow. I am spending Christmas eve with my Mum (Dad is away and so are my brothers so didnt want her to be alone). We are having steak and veg and going for a big walk to see the Christmas lights and get in the mood.
Christmas day will be started with a brisk walk at the beach. I will be working the lunch shift at the restaurant which I am seeing as a positive. 1 less meal to behave through. Mum will pick me up from work to take me to my uncles house. I am allowing myself a small treat with my Christmas dinner but that will be it for the evening. Boxing day will be spent doing retail therapy and dinner with the new man. Perfect relaxation.

Training has been going guns a blazing. Training with Danielle is working out great and we train alot harder. My obliques are still hurting from Sunday's session. Cardio is even going well. I am now walking for an hour in the morning and the bike for 45 min at night. Im enjoying it and it makes it that much easier if its not a chore.

Not sure what else to right exept have a great holiday and love the time with your family.
Merry Christmas and I hope all your wishes come true in the New Year.

I think it has been another week. We had a brilliant brunch on Sunday with the figure girls with a few new comers which is always nice. Jaime Lee, Vivenne, Danielle and Katie P were all first timers to the brunch. Aswell as the lovely Jo, Magda, Kate and Kerry. It was a big brunch with alot of chatter. And even though I took my camera I forgot to take pics to post. I actually had such a great time chatting that I didnt even realise everyone was eating around me while I ate my 'thin air biscuits'. I happily munched away on my tuna, brocolli and cauli after. After chatting with the girls about dieting I have come to the conclusion I need to up up up the greens. So on the suggestion of Viv I am going to try to eat a whole heap of lettuce with my afternoon tea. I had it today and it was surprisingly nice. I wrapped the chicken with a heap of lettuce and had little rolls.

After brunch I needed to hit the gym and Danielle was keen to train too (I knew one of the girls would be keen) and we trained HARD! My tri's have never hurt like this 2 days after a session before. We both pushed each other harder then we would have gone alone so we will try to train together as much as possible now. We trained again tonight Danielle on Chest and me on Back and still we did well. Would be easier if we were doing the same body part but it still worked. She is a great chick with crazy vains and poppy muscles. Because we are aiming for the same comp it will def keep us in line I think.

Weight dropped slightly on Sat again and the big man patted me and said 'good girl'. So if its going in the right direction im happy. Still cant quite crack the 70kg mark but when I do there will be alot of cheering! Didnt do weights yesterday and took advantage of the great weather and hit the beach for cardio. Went for an hour walk without even noticing. Beautiful sunset and really cheered me up out of my Mondayitis. I was in a much better mood today and very productive.

Challanges this week will be Fridays Christmas party. I will need some good hard will power for the day.. The weight in Sat morning might be enough to keep me in line.
Peace out X
