Hey guys, thanks for dropping by!!! Thought I'd quickly drop by and put down my food plan for tomorrow... Not going to boot camp in the morning as I still have a bit of a cold.
B 1/2 cup fruit free muesli, 60g co yo, coconut milk, 1 tsp chia seeds, 1/2 cup frozen berries
S Eggy pudding
L Stir fry with assorted veges and mince
S Chopped veges with 40g hummus
D Thai chicken burger, 2 cups mixed roast veges
Exercise Just going for a fair amount of walking tomorrow I think!
Will update properly after my sister leaves in a few days, but really want to get on track again from tomorrow so at least posting a food diary!

Hope the last few days with your sister went well!
Hey guys!!! I'm BAAAAACK! Properly now though!!! I'm going to catch you all up on what I've been up to, going to be a big post so don't feel like you have to read it... haha it's more for me than anything else.
Well first up- sisters visiting! My older sister definitely surprised my younger one, I think that was the most full on week we had. My birthday was that week too, my YS and I went to Draculas the night before (OS couldn't go because she had my nephew) which was awesome, we spent my actual birthday at SeaWorld. Did a fair bit of tramming around Surfers Paradise and heaps of shopping, my bank account took a massive hit with OS there! Then YS got sick so we didn't do much after OS had left, we went to Movieworld but then I got sick. Arrgh. Still we all had a really good time, my husband offered YS a job with him if life is still shitty for her back home so who knows, she might be back permanently. Which would be amazing BTW, we all miss her something fierce! We were such a good bunch together, we all get along really well and she loves it here.
Ate terribly the entire month while they were here, can't believe I didn't gain anything! I've been awesome this week, cheat meal happened Tue night and then had a bit of a slip on Thu evening but TOM came the next day so that would've been why. Food and exercise has been top notch besides that, think I'll see a decent loss on Mon!
What else has been happening... I'm starting uni next week 2 weeks behind, all good though... I'm sure I'll catch up. Can't wait to get into it! I got an awesome commission payment yesterday, was super excited, then spent more than half of it on my textbooks. Yuck. The rest is going on a dentist appt I have booked for the 17th March. So didn't get to spend it too excitingly!
I booked holidays for the 2nd-12th April to go home but husband couldn't get holidays at the same time, so I was thinking of getting my wisdom teeth out then but then a few of the other lady reps at work want to organise a big boozy weekend in Noosa around the same time so think that'll be how I spend that time instead! Can't wait!!! Husband has instead booked off the 22nd June-20th July so if that gets approved we'll go home then, and possibly up to Cairns if we can afford it. Also I'm going on a cruise with Wade next January, his parents are paying! It's his 5 year anniversary of when the Dr told him his cancer was terminal and he only has 5 years max left. It's our big fuck you to cancer! He's still going strong. Still has his surgery and treatment this year but he should actually be in remission by then.
What else... Starting an 8 week challenge at the gym from the 9th March with my husband, was stoked he was keen to do it with me! So I think I'll be doing classes 4x a week with him and then 1 45min PT session a week. Also random, because I had 4 gym sessions this week instead of 3 we did my normal split but added in a crazy cardio session, which also included handstands. Haha I actually did pretty well (was doing them on the wall, I'm not coordinated enough to do otherwise). Honestly just proud that I went for it without hesitating instead of saying I couldn't!
Annnyhoo... Last 2 days of my week, I'll post todays food and tomorrows food plan and then back to normal on Mon.
Todays food
B 2 eggs, 1/2 cup sweet potato, 1 tsp olive oil for cooking
S Salad with 2 cups hot cooked veg, 1/3 avocado, 75g tin of 4 bean mix, homemade salad dressing (this recipe, it's AMAZING: )
L Green smoothie
S Avocado choc pudding, red capsicum and tomato soup (was part of my dinner but I was still hungry)
D 130g tamari and garlic chicken breast
Exercise 50min walk to work
Today I really didn't do much, after I woke up I spent hours scouring the net for the cheapest way to get my textbooks (some I got overseas international editions, a lot of stuff from Ebay) then walked to work and worked 11-4.
Food plan for tomorrow
B Banana cinnamon baked oatmeal
S 130g cooked chicken breast in tamari and garlic with 2 cups mixed roast veges (this time it's beetroot, parsnips, baby carrots, cauliflower, red onion, mushrooms, zucchini)
L Smoothie
S 40g hummus, handful of chopped carrot and red capsicum sticks
D Homemade slow cooked beef and mushroom meatloaf in gravy (made from pan juices and xanthan gum) and a bowl of red capsicum and tomato soup
Exercise Don't think I'm doing any tomorrow!
Tomorrow will likely be watching bulk House of Cards before and after work (I work 11-4). That's going to keep me busy! Husband is home Sun-Tue so that's nice too.

Finishing up the week really well I think, I had mega cravings when I got home from work but made myself an amazing bowl of ice-cream out of nuts/cocoa powder/cottage cheese/stevia and it was really satisfying. Will have dinner in an hour or so. Weigh in tomorrow, fingers crossed! I have TOM and have had a bit of an upset stomach today, will see how I go. Worried fluid retention might end up being an issue, will see.
Starting uni tomorrow too. No way am I letting myself fail this time and give up- my job is waaay too boring to have this be it for the rest of my life! Today was terrible and quiet and I had so many annoying customers. Arrgh.
Food plan for tomorrow
B 1/2 cup muesli, 60g co yo, 1/3 cup frozen raspberries, drop of coconut milk
S 130g roast beef with 2 cups roast veg
L Smoothie
S Pistachio and cherry ice-cream
D Chicken meatloaf and mixed veg
Exercise Might go for a walk in the morning

That's awesome you didn't gain anything while your sisters were over! Good luck getting back on track!
That's awesome that your husband is doing the training with you!!

Thanks for the big welcome back everyone!!!
In a bit more of a routine now. This week was pretty good, got through uni subjects ok. Weighed in this morning instead of Monday as I had a weigh in for the gym challenge today that starts on Mon. Weighed in at home first before brekki and was 67.9kgs, so YAY lost weight! Officially puts me in the 140s. Weighed in at my challenge after brekki and about a litre of water plus clothing and I was 68.9kgs so I know I'll weigh in about 1kg heavier. Means I can set goals etc. My goal for the 8 weeks is to lose 5kgs- if I can do that I'll be in the 130s! Nutritionist has sent me a new meal plan too for the challenge which is awesome. Going to try to be as basic as I can with it! Cheat meals will be whatever I want but meal food... so no huge amounts of junk food (except for maybe some chocolate on Easter) and no junk food comes home unless we get some food to go from somewhere! This week coming my cheat meal is date night on Friday, going to an amazing looking steakhouse.
Anyhoo, thought I better get a wiggle on and get right into it.... since I've already weighed in and measured then all these days count now! From Monday we have to earn 10 'exercise points' a week, each group class is 2 points, a weight session is 2 points and light cardio like walking is 1 point. I've worked out my schedule so I have group classes (HIIT mainly) on Mon/Tue/Wed evenings, and PT Thu and Fri mornings. Going to probably go walking on my Mon/Tue/Wed mornings too, simply because I'm so used to exercising in the mornings and I'm worried about feeling sluggish for most of the day.
Food for tomorrow
B 1/3 cup oats, 1 tsp chia seeds, 1/2 cup blueberries, 2 tbsp. LSA, 1/2 cup carton coconut milk, stevia
S 130g chicken breast in tamari and garlic, 2 cups mixed roast veg
L Smoothie
S 1/3 avocado, 2 buckwheat crackers
D Capsicum and tomato soup, 130g roast beef
Exercise 50min walk to work
Gunna get this guys!!!! My 1/2 way goal is to be 65.5kg by the 6th April.

If nothing else you sound very excited to have all this activity in store (at least I think that's what "get a wiggle on" means). I like your exercise schedule. Nice and aggressive but nothing that's going to physically destroy you. 5 kg in 8 weeks is similarly doable but aggressive.
I think I'd like to monitor my weight in kg and my height in cm. That way I'll be lighter and taller. And then use Celsius in the summer and Fahrenheit in the winter.

Yay for losing weight!
I went to a talk today that had a weight loss challenge thing, but there was so much stuff that you were supposed to do to get points that I knew I wouldn't do that I didn't sign up for it. Things like buying and taking their supplements, doing the type of exercise they wanted (which was an ok exercise plan but I can't do that with my Tough Mudder race plans), going to the chiropractor on a scheduled basis (chiropractor was who was putting on the talk so a money grab for him for sure, you had to go 1-3 times a week), not eating any sugar or any grains, etc.
I was like, well there is no way I'm gonna come close to winning even if I do lose the most amount of weight (and look the best after doing it with all my exercise), so no point to entering it.

MrVee- I like the aggressiveness of the plan. 8 weeks is a short amount of time to push myself really hard and get some decent results... it's how I lost the first 5kgs (did that in 6 weeks)! Then I kind of went into maintenance mode. If I can lose the next 5kgs in this 8 weeks and then take a couple months break again before getting to my goal I'll be happy. It's really only 600g a week, my meal plan is awesome and I'm not missing out on anything.
Mystic- Jeez that's crazy, I wouldn't have signed up either! Ha, I love our little exercise points system. Gives me something to aim for every week and then I know I'm where the PT wants me too.
Today wasn't perfect, technically challenge doesn't start till tomorrow (that's what I told myself to justify my food, ha!). Had breakfast/morn tea/lunch, then work was completely dead and I was hungry and bored and then had to walk halfway home before Wade caught up to me and picked me up. Went to a slightly healthier burger joint and I got a beef and mushroom burger and sweet potato chips. At a guess I would've eaten only around 800cals by this stage, for the burger and chips I'd just go out and take a generous guess at 1200? So would've still finished under maintenance I'm guessing anyway.
But now... challenge starts tomorrow. So starting to smash out the perfect days!
Food for tomorrow
B Homemade muesli, co yo, berries, coconut milk
S 2 crackers, 1/3 avocado
L 130g roast beef, 1/2 cup sweet potato, capsicum and tomato soup
S 100g frozen cherries, 40g nuts
1/2 dinner (pre workout) 130g chicken breast, 2 cups veg
Other half dinner (post workout) Wrap with 2 eggs and 2 tbsp. cottage cheese with Italian herbs
Exercise Light walk in the morning (maybe 30-40mins), zuu class at night

Good luck on the challenge!
Thanks guys!
Thought I'd write now as I might not get the chance later, should really get around and write on other peoples diaries too!! Updated my above food to reflect my change in dinner, still all perfect and everything. Just decided I wanted to eat my protein (2 eggs) instead of a protein shake (which I'm allowed to do!). Means I kind of have 2 dinners haha.
Just going to go ahead and say perfect day 1 down, 6 to go till weigh day! Husband has had the day off today which was nice. I went for a walk this morning, then we went out and watched a movie around lunch time and had a coffee out afterward. Having my first dinner soon at like 5pm, training at 6pm and then 2nd dinner will be around 7pm. Can't do our usual grocery shop tomorrow night as Ash is working late, but sent him a list of a massive pile of stuff to get tomorrow so I can still meal prep on Wed. Feel pretty bad because it's over half the shopping for the fortnight and he has to do it himself. Can't wait till Wed night though, need to use my Wed to get food prep on and also so we have food!
Hmmmmmm. Nothing else to report really, tomorrow will just be uni study and that's about it. Going to get through all of my classes for the week tomorrow if I can! Then have Wed off to food prep, and just do a bit of study before/after work the rest of the week. Husband has Fri/Sat off too so I want those days free besides work.
Food plan for tomorrow
B Baked strawberry oats
S Carrot/capsicum sticks, 40g hummus
L 130g chicken breast, 1/2 cup sweet potato, 2 cups mixed roasted veg
S 2 hardboiled eggs, carrot/capsicum sticks
1/2 D (pre workout) 130g fish, red capsicum and tomato soup
Rest of dinner (post workout) Wrap with cottage cheese, herbs, tomato. Protein shake
Exercise Walk first thing in the AM, zuu class at night

Perfect day 2 almost down, writing now as I won't get the chance to later. The only difference to todays food was my afternoon snack, I was craving sweetness so I had a protein shake and a 1/2 serve fruit (55ish grams of frozen cherries). Dinner is in the oven now, cooking up Mexican spiced fish. Nom.
Didn't do much today, had to grab a couple of things from the shops so I did that after my morning walk, then pretty much just done uni work all day. Husband is working late tonight so after dinner I'm riding my bike to the gym and back for my exercise class.
Food plan for tomorrow
B Wrap with 2 eggs, tomato, cottage cheese
S 1 cup mixed veg with 80g meat (probably chicken or leftover fish, unsure at this stage)
L 130g prawns with 2 cups stir fry veg and brown rice
S 1/2 a small rockmelon, 40g mixed nuts
1/2 Dinner (pre workout) 130g beef meatloaf, 2 cups veg
1/2 Dinner (post workout) Going to make ice-cream from 1/2 cup leftover brown rice and my protein shake
Exercise Morning walk, zuu class at night
Tomorrow is food prep day!

Thought I would quickly post again as my post-workout meal was so tasty! I made a little cake from 1/2 cup sweet potato, 2 egg whites, 3/4 scoop vanilla WPI, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 4 vanilla stevia drops (equal to approx 1 tbsp sweetener I think) and 1/2 tsp baking powder. Just mashed it together, baked for 20mins at 180c then let it cool. I iced it too with 2 tbsp light ricotta mixed with 1 tbsp almond milk and 2 vanilla stevia drops. Ohhh it was tasty, I'll do it again and take a pic.
I already made tomorrow nights icecream but don't think I'll be able to make it as Wade might already be asleep when I get home from my workout so he probably won't appreciate me using the blender. Think I might make a rice pudding instead and eat the ice cream next week.

Oaks- That wrap was delicious!
Well. Didn't end up going for a walk this morning, woke up crazy early (5.30) and couldn't get back to sleep, so had an early brekki and got started on my food prep! Thought I'd share some pics... this is my roast veg mix, soup, and 2kgs sweet potato. This all gets portioned out and I freeze the majority of it.
View attachment 22673View attachment 22674
I also had 2 slow cookers going, one has 3kgs of beef in it and one had a meatloaf which I've since sliced and let cool, now I'm cooking 3kgs chicken breasts in that one. After that I just have to cook up a chicken meatloaf and I'm done!
Had to walk to the shop to grab a couple things I was short of for my chicken marinade, was feeling lean today so took a pic. Loving how strong my legs look too!

And just for fun, here's Luna sitting on me really awkwardly last night while I used my laptop.
