day 17

feeling still not 100 % and my back is killing me, maybe I should go to the doctor, but i am afraid he will tell me to stop pcp. Anyhow did my jumps although they were a disaster as first the skipping rope broke, than i tried hubbies one, but was to heavy and than i took my kids one that was a bit too short so i had to duck to jump, not very nice.... other exercises went fine and I could feel it burning. Hope i get more sleep tonight so i can start fresh again tomorrow.

day 16

very bad day!!!

day 15

so here I am on day 15. Did all my exercise already as my husband started his exercises early in the morning because he had to leave for his sailing race and i didn't want to have it hanging over me for the whole day. Took also picture but now you can really see I had 4 kids, with more fed on me it didn't look sooo bad, hopefully it will kind of straighten out with all the exercise if not my dear hubby needs to pay for some plastic surgery for the hanging skin....Breakfast was still plenty and I didn't feel the cut zoo much, lets see how the day goes on.

Day 15

day 14

did my 800 jumps straight in the morning, then shower and onto the scale, but i am not loosing any weight, how frustrating is that, I am eating now very healthy, exercising and now I am even getting a lot of spots without indulging in chocolate. is it really worth it????

day13

My back is killing me, despite the pain I did my jumps, but I was in agony. The lunges were alright maybe we will become one day friends. Food was yummy but almost too much, the only weird thing was that I craved today some sweets although I was the last couple of days fine. very strange. Early to bed and hopefully will get better tomorrow.

Day 12

I am absolutely exhausted and I probably overdid it today, 3 hours of sport is maybe a bit too much for my untrained body. Anyhow hopefully I will recover until tomorrow for the next round. I ate my healthy lunch but really didn't enjoy it and just finished it because patrick said to eat everything. It is really funny that i am not hungry anymore, before PCP I was always anxiously waiting for the kids to come home from school so we could have lunch and now i am just having lunch because i have to. very weird....  Ah and before I forget I was really good last night for my girlie night, I had only water and tea and some salad and seared tuna + some potatoes. i am so proud, usually when i was dieting and there was some temptation I would have just said, ah it is only tonight we can have one bad day....

day 11 there are good days and bad days

so today is unfortunately one of the bad ones, did my deed, but really badly, although the day started very promisingwith the jump rope until I had to fight with my 17 months old boy for the rope and then after the distraction I had to fight not to get always tangled up in the rope. then later my beloved lunges gave me the rest. will I ever love them, they really make my knee creek. Food is ok and i am surprisingly not hungry and also not tempted to pick on my kids plates. I am also out tonight for a girlie night hopefully I stay strong!!!! will tell you more tomorrow....

day 10 only 80 to go....

today wasn't too bad as the jumps went rather fine and the food didn't taste too bland after adding a few spices and ginger, but made tonight a soup as I cant see anymore steamed veggies, pureed they look at least different.

day 9

My bum is burning after my beloved lunges, so I can hardly move and the steamed vegetables I find already very boring and cant imagine to eat like that for the next 81 days. Yeak..... that is not a nicer life this is hell, why am I doing it???? Ok I guess I really have a verrrrry bad day, because I am barking at everybody. So bye-bye for today and speak tomorrow....

day8

Got straight out of bed and started skipping , followed by the exercise that is really getting tough. Unfortunately while i was doing the new exercise with the pull ups I pulled a muscle in my neck so hopefully tomorrow it wont hurt too much. With the food I was very surprised, my portions are huge and I really struggled to finish them and it also tasted quite good. So i am wondering whether there is maybe sty wring with my measuring. So far so good, lets see how tomorrow will be.

Day 8

Here i am, week 2 picture!

Week 2 

Day7!!! I almost passed out

I did it !!!! 700 jumps, but I have to admit I didn't do them in one go and put 10 sec breaks in once in a while if not you would have had one team member less. I am very proud though then even in my aqua aerobics I was much more energetic and I lost 1 kilo. Yipeee!!!  Tonight we are unfortunately out, but i will take it as my last unhealthy meal. Very excited about the new diet for next week although it will be very tough on me as I like food a lot especially the unhealthy one like butter etc. Have all a lovely day!!!

day 6

Not feeling too well today , struggled with the exercises especially the last set of each exercise and I am soooo tired and hungry. So early to bed today and start fresh tomorrow.

day 5 already!!! only 85 to go :)

My day 5 started very good as I went first to my beloved pilates lesson, followed by a birthday party of 2 year olds, where i have to admit I ate a little peace of the birthday cake as I couldn't be unpolite to the host, couldn't I??? Back home my bad conscious got me and I started immediately with my program, but still the skipping was tough today and i could also feel the increase in repetition, the only thing that worried me was while skipping I had a nasty pulling like a knife cut in my lower leg, I hope this isn't a bad foresign for sth really bad.... Anyhow lets see what tomorrow will bring....

Day4

Today I am really angry with myself, I am so wobble and fat ....grrrrr.  Skipping was a disaster today got constantly tangled up and the  lunges I really do not like, but still got through my program. Pleeaaase let it be better tomorrow and I hope I will one day enjoy to do lunges. No pain no gain!!!

Day 3

All my muscles are hurting and I am walking now in a very strange way as everything hurts. Today is a really bad day: it is cold, I am hungry and my whole body is aching and I am in a filthy mood, but still I did manage to do my exercises, just with the food I am struggling today and I have to be really strong not to go to the fridge or pick on my sons food. Please let it be better tomorrow!!!!

2 day

ok now we have the second day and I have to admit my legs are already hurting from yesterday but still I did my deed for today, so lets see what tomorrow will bring...

1 day

just did my first exercises, omg I am really unfit and the half portion of my delicious spaghetti carbonara was really hard not to cheat or to pick on the children's  plates, but slowly slowly hopefully I will get there. The only reassuring thing was that Vitto did sweat as well and struggled as well with the pasta portion, but I think he is more strong willed than me and hopefully will pull me along.
