I did it!!!!!

Been going to gym since Sept and began to have Personal Trainer few
weeks ago with Martin for an hour once a week.

The result is showing as I've lost 8lb in two weeks! I feel terrific!
Our Personal Trainer is not there to supervise how much activities we do
in the gym but she is there to supervise our whole lifestyle and our
eating habits through looking at our food diary.

Gym now is pure maths for me - the machine tells me how much calories
I've lost and I can work out how much calories I've lost through gym per
week - and I watch how much I eat - these two go hands in hands and its
finally working for me now. Years of fad dieting are now gone - its
pure effort - watch what you eat and exercise!

Feeling good about myself now and I hope I can keep up with the momentum :)

It's been a while...

...since I wrote anything in my blog!

Ireland: it was fantastic - really enjoyed the Dingle Penisula and
Dingle town. Kerry was particularly beautiful especially off the beaten
track through the mountain passes. Cashel and Kilkenny - cute. Dublin
was fantastic! Loved pint of Guinness at the end of our Guinness tour :)

Its been work work work since we got back and I've got exams coming up
(next Fri - 14th Oct) *gulp* For me I finished my course when I did my
final assignment and can't bring myself to revise for the exams. I
suppose I will do some revision tomorrow and next week.

Autumn has started - its pitch dark at 8pm here. Sad that long sunlit
hours are gone - but I love crispy autumn air with sunshine - so cold
you cannot feel the sun. Christmas is coming up too - can't wait :)
but we can't start planning for Christmas until Hallowe'en is celebrated!
