The Mayans Screwed Me Over!

Hmm... ok so as far as the weight loss goes I have no idea how much I weigh right now! I know I have lost more weight since I fit into my denim shorts finally (summer here I come) but I have been so tired this week I haven't bothered to go to the gym at all or weigh myself. I did go swimming on Monday but I fear consistency is key when it comes to exercise.

Anywho! To make up for that guilty feeling Me and the D man are redecorating our room. A new bed, new deco, new cages for the hams, new everything! I'm needing a serious de-clutter as part of my "2012 life makeover" so the room is going to be minimal themed. Basically no clutter, just a few eye catching bits of furniture. All boxes, trinkets, dust gatherers etc will be packed into the attic... simply put, I'm moving into Ikea!

Mind you all of this has made me think. After all of this hard work to lose weight, money spent on decorating and new clothes, all the time an effort I will be putting into this 'life changing year'... if it does turn out that the world ends this December I will be seriously miffed!

Mayhem!!!

Too much to do this week! It's all been so hectic trying to finish off the website, spend time with the hams, work, write a dozen different essays! Sooooo stressed >.<

I did manage to buy myself a work out DVD with over 6 hours of work outs on it and then bought myself an exercise ball to use with it only to discover my computer doesn't run DVDs........ there are also no other DVD players in a usable room -.-

The stress is getting a bit much and I keep forgetting to do things too! Plus I've over spent this month :( Ho hum, I could do with a few days off from life.

Danny's Delights! (aka Mr Bobtails Bakery)

Well Dan is finally getting a move on with his ambition of becoming a baker, we've subscribed to the new Cake Decorating magazine for him so that he can collect the free gifts and get a few more handy tips in preparation for his culinary course that starts this Autumn. I'm so proud of him taking such a strong interest in baking as he is one of those men who seems to find it difficult to really get stuck into a hobby. Fingers crossed for him that this goes really well over the next couple of years! :D As a bit of motivation he has also set up a new YouTube channel under the name Danny's Delights but he isn't uploading videos until he starts getting the hang of baking :) I hope the YT channel will help edge him on more and that his eventual subscribers will be very supporting and edge him forwards towards his goals. :)

As for my goals, well I lost another 1.5lb so although not as much as I would have liked at least I'm still losing weight! Planning on doing an hour of swimming every Monday now as well as the 3 gym trips every week so I hope the weight loss speeds up a little and my abs start showing again. Mind you I already feel much smaller around the waist line and it feels great! :D

Danni the Kat

Well the websites new design is coming along great. Just a few more changes to make, some products to list and then we will be ready for launch day which Im hoping will be April 1st. I got so bored of the old design that I decided to leave webhost Weebly and Joined up with Moonfruit insted, their templates are much nicer :)

I have since spent the whole evening creating teeny tiny cupcake earrings which will be sold on the new site and the usual cupcakes that I have been making for the last 2 years will now only be available as necklaces and charms. Anywho enough on that, Im just waiting for the cupcakes to finish cooking so that I can glaze them and go to bed *yawn* night all!

Take That Fat Cells!

Muhahaha I'm feeling evil this evening! Mostly because I weighed myself today and I have lost 4lb in 2 weeks! :D I have 8lb left until I hit my goal weight and 4 weeks left to do it in so I really need to step up my game now!
Went to the gym today with Dan and while he was being lazy I burnt 200kcal on the treadmill and 250kcal on weights. I've also managed 100 stomach crunches today which is great but I'm on the look out for a quicker abdominal muscle building routine which I can make a permanent part of my life style :)

Tomorrow morning I will be doing 30 minutes of Yoga and then 2 more hours in the gym in the afternoon before heading off to pick up that fish tank I have been so excited about! For those who follow my YouTube Channel - ErinsHamsters - you will see the tank on my videos tomorrow ;)

Night all! xx

4 Eyed Lazy Person!

I picked up my new reading glasses yesterday - designer might I add *looks smug* - and I am amazed at how much better than my old ones they are! I can actually see things! However it seems I didn't need to use my eyes today as I didn't wake up until 1.30pm... There goes my day!
 I was supposed to be picking up a glass tank, finishing my Anti-Child Abuse campaign posters to be handed in to the head of my media course tomorrow as well as the storyboard to my advert, doing a full clean of the room and finishing a page on my website. It's safe to say I have done nothing today as so far the best I have managed to do is eat one bowl of Weetabix and spend the rest of the day wishing I had pizza!

I'm making sure I fit in a few stomach crunches before bed but all in all its been a pretty non-existent day :/

Feeling Bloated

Despite being on this diet for 3 weeks now I am feeling very bloated around the waistline. I'm also feeling bad because I haven't been to the gym all week -.- I wish that I had the motivation to do extreme exercise! Just one more day of work this week and then I'm off until Thursday so I will hopefully be able to fit in some gym trips with my better-half though to be honest, he is just as lazy ;) x
