Ahhhh it's been a super hectic week, so much so that I completely forgot to weigh myself before we ran out the door well before 7am yesterday morning.
I think I am going to give myself this week as a week's grace, and weigh in again next Wednesday... It's not that far away, you know :)
How has your week been? I am off to the shops after work today to try and find me a DVD to exercise with. I haven't had any luck with my local retailers, so I'm heading into the larger shopping centre today - with all the crazy people who are already stocking for Christmas (yeah, in 6 months time!!!) at the Target sales that starts today... I think I'll class myself as one of the crazy's too!

Weigh In Wednesday
Starting Weight - 89.5kg
Weight Last Week - N/A
Weight Today - 74.7kg
Weight to Lose - 5.7kg
Hmmm... Not a great start this week. So much for 'getting back on track'..! Marc has been away most of the week, Reuben has been sick (re: too many loads of washing/sheet changing/clothes to count), it's EOFY at work and Owen starts a new school tomorrow! I don't need to add that it's been a big, long week here at the Harvey Circus.
My goal for this week? Find a decent exercise DVD to do at home. I'm tempted by Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred DVD. From reviews I've been reading, it's a short circuit workout (about 20-25 mins) with three levels to get through. Sounds just about right for someone like me!
Have you had a go? Can you recommend an alternative DVD to try?

Time to fess up...
Tonight I had my first ever personal training session.
I was nervous and excited about this meeting with my PT, Billi-Jo. I had these horrible thoughts all day today that she was going to be a nasty piece of work and that I would be worked so hard that I wouldn't be able to stumble out of the gym and make it home in one piece :)-
Anyway, I'm happy to report that Billi-Jo was exactly the opposite to what I had imagined - she's great! But in saying that, tonight's session wasn't a real traning session for me. The next one wil be harder - I can pretty much guarantee that much!
It was half an hour of testing to find out what myFitness Age really is.
Your Fitness Age tells you that you are, physically speaking, performing at the same level of the average person that age.
So here are my stats, taken tonight that assist in the Fitness Age calculation:
Weight: 75kg
Height: 168cm
Birth Date: 15/04/1979
Waist: 86cm
Hips:113cm
Recovery Pulse: 115
Sit & Reach: +15cm
1 min of Sit Ups: 24
Max Push Ups: 10
Ok, so here's the home truth - my Fitness Age is 49.
Yep, I know. What a shocker, hey.
But at least I've got a starting point to progress from now, and it will all improve. It may take a while, but at least I'm willing (and able) to work on it.
