  • Back into the swing of things.

    I finally got motivated to get back into going for a walk – first day back after a week of not exercising and I was expecting the worst but actually I came back, completed the 11.6km in under 2 hours and I don’t feel sore or stiff which is a good sign. I was expecting…

  • End of the first day.

    Well, I was able to finish an hour early which was nice but I was hoping to be able to go for a walk tonight, getting back into a good routine, but alas it is raining outside. On a good side though I stuck to my diet plan for today so it isn’t as though…

  • Well, that was interesting.

    I got up this morning, started my day as usual, logged myself and it wasn’t until 4pm when I saw that my schedule hadn’t been loaded on Playvox so I asked my boss who then checked with the WFM team – it appears that since I worked on Tuesday I got to have my day…

  • Getting back into a good schedule.

    I start work at 1:30pm but I set my alarm to 12:45pm however what I have been doing is pulling back the time I go to sleep so that when I get up in the morning I have more time before I start working. Before I went to sleep I went to bed at 3:00am…

  • Getting back into regular order tomorrow.

    The last couple of days it has been a bit chaotic with work, weather, people letting off fireworks not to mention my routine got all out of order but now that things have settled down tomorrow will be a reboot back into a good routine and with that hopefully things will get back normal again.…

  • The draft folder keeps filling up.

    Work was so-so today but it felt good to get to the end of the day and then go for my nightly walk – fresh air and enjoying the warmer temperature where hopefully I’ll be able to go for a walk without having to wear a hoodie to keep warm. I logged into WordPress to…

  • Almost the end of the week.

    It’s almost the end of the week and I am looking to sleep in on Monday and then head down to the local dutch bakery for some egg bene and a cappuccino for brunch. I’ve been sticking to the meal routine, no snacks or eating in between meals, I’m hoping that that if I do…

  • Another day, another dollar.

    I’m happily relaxing after a busy day and the day started off well with confirmation that I’ve got 5 December off for my work Christmas party which avoids me having to finish late on Thursday, wake up early on Friday after barely having a decent night sleep and then by the time the party comes…

  • Raining and crazy weather.

    It has been another horrible day today so I decided to take the night off. I had a good day at work, stuck to my meal plan for today and counting my calories and with that I have really come to enjoy a mug of Earl Grey tea to warm me up when working at…

  • A good first day.

    A good first day to the reboot of my routine – I had my breakfast with the chia seed and unsweetened yoghurt and funny enough I didn’t miss the sweetness. I have a feeling that if I do it for a few weeks it’ll become the ‘new normal’ as it is embedded into my daily…
