My accountability needs to start all over again... so here is the plan for this week - will update on Sunday with the results:
Monday - After work the plan was to run but Brisbane got hit with another crazy storm so it was - Wii EA Active 30 Day Challenge
Tuesday - Pre work - Gym, Treadmill C25k Week 2, Cross trainer - at least an hour of cardio. One Hundred Push Ups - Week 2 Day 1
Wednesday - Pre work - Body Pump
Thursday - Pre work - Swim at the Gym - in place of a rest day, just an easy swim to stretch out.One Hundred Push Ups - Week 2 Day 2
Friday - Pre work - Body Pump
Saturday - Body Pump, Swim, One Hundred Push Ups - Week 2 Day 3
Sunday - 30km ride (round trip) to the bay for some grilled fish with The Italian
A busy schedule I know - but I need to take advantage of what my week is like in terms of hours at work... last week I only managed 3 days of about 30mins each, so I need to ramp it up this week. Plus I'm feeling the energy!
I weighed 70.2 on Sunday morning, 71.2 on Monday morning. I'm aiming for below 70 by next Sunday/Monday...

We often play Tourists in our own city
So the weekend went by with as much exercise as I could fit in while really just wanting to sleep and read books... Foolishly I went for a midday ride on Saturday - in a singlet. Yikes - sunburn!
The rest of the time was spent going to a talk by Tony Mott at his exhibition which was fun... Later we wandered up the road to a long time favourite restaurant Himalyan style... Just an easy Saturday. The Italian was convinced he had never eaten here before - though unless I'm getting him mixed up with another 6 foot something dark haired man (highly likely a few years back!) then I'm the one going crazy :)
Sunday we ventured out in the ridiculous heat to GoMA - always worth it! Even if The Italian was walking one step behind me the whole time we were outside to shade my sunburn... this is on top of the 'tisk 'tisk I got every few minutes...
Tony Mott Exhibition... I find Rock Photography to be one of those 'you were in the right place at the right time' type of careers - but I wouldn't have turned it down!
Walking to the restaurant Saturday night...
GoMA 21st Century Exhibition

Red
Number of Calories burnt this week - took Thursday and Friday off due to long long work hours... but smashed a couple of hours today.
Stunning flowers from The Italian. I never knew he knew exactly what my favourite colour is.We've had a bit of a stressful week and these are the first flowers he has bought me in 2.5 yrs we have known each other. Dinner out tonight.... but I'm 2 episodes into Dexter Season 5 and hooked already! Which is precisely the reason I was saving it for a rainy day... damn beautiful weather calling my name.

Staying Home
I've been toying so much with trying to start a new blog... I only just created a new template... I came up with a half assed title because I think the one here comes off racist and you all know it's not! I've been a bad blogger... Oh but I have been lurking and enjoying and massive apologies for not commenting but those who used to follow me and comment have all gone through an amazing 12 mths! I tip the top of my skirt :)
At this point in time --- there will not be a new blog...nah... I'm staying here. My honesty started here so why should I move it and cloak it somewhere else?
Stats are: Back on Weight Watchers... now doing Pro Points - is it better than Core (which I had amazing success on) .... Maybe. New C25k regime - adapting to still not having my own kitchen - Now that I am living with The Italian (still not sure if it is 'staying with' or 'living with' - I have a storage shed full of great stuff that would make a home look so beautiful...) WHY WHY WHY did I move to Sydney and give up my last flat??
I've lost 3.5kgs in 5 weeks on WW doing 2000/3000 plus exercise calories a week in exercise... hmm I expected more... BUT I was a lazy arse for about 4mths. When I left Sydney I started a new show and just didn't exercise - spent all my time at work or home cooking. Italian and I had great weekends of bike rides and walking but not enough for me.
I've had writers block for over a year - I need to come back - I really miss this blog/home/blog friends and a sense of purpose. xxMiss N

New Blog in the works
I think one of the major reasons I don't update anymore is that this blog is a little tired - I think it's been around for almost 3 years! I don't really feel like the same person who started this blog.. Mainly because relationships have changed and I don't necessarily feel like running an anonymous blog anymore.. so I'm going to move and start a new one! Be more open - less hiding behind 'Miss N'. So if any of you are even still here I'll send out the link once it's all set up.
Much love for the past 3 years of ramblings! xox

ups and downs and ups
I'm not sure if the outback gig will be happening.. the phone isn't ringing hot despite being asked to put in for it for a specific gig... So it could be back to the freelance hunting board in approx 7 weeks time.. and where will I live? my car? I'm still fighting with the Ex (Texan) re: car.. despite (ME) almost paying off the loan over the past 2 months.. Limbo Limbo Limbo...
Italian arrives tomorrow afternoon - I pretty much pick him up from the airport - drive home, dump car, get on bus then ferry to Manly... check into a gorgeous B&B and then hightail it down to the wharf for dinner and drinks with friends I haven't seen in a while (used to live together in San Francisco). We will then head out to see a new up and coming band (been 'unearthed' getting lots of airplay) that my friends manage. Should be a fun night - despite Italian and I just having a tense discussion over iChat about driving to Manly from the airport versus dumping car and then getting public transport.. ergg -- I hate 'discussing' things over instant messaging sometimes... meh - moving on.
SMASHED it at the gym this week so far - will get one more chance tomorrow morning to work out properly.. I've been in the studio shooting all week - we don't shoot on Fridays thankfully.. working from home - have a few errands and then airport..
Monday - 1 hr cardio: 474 calories, Tuesday - met new personal trainer: 377 calories, Wednesday: Cardio: 491 Calories, Thursday - cardio then body pump: 742 calories
On fire again!!! and I weighed in under 70 - but waiting a few days to keep checking on that... Food - awesome.. Alcohol - um yeah....
