I will Tri harder

I Like K's more than miles...

OK. I can run a mile, but I can run 3k! Any my entry form is going in for the 10k race on April 15th this weekend. 5k next Weds, which might kill me, but hey ho.

Exercise has been good and food has been great. Cutting out bread and limiting carbs in the evening seems to be responsible for my 2.5lb weight loss in a week. I am officially overweight rather than obese now (although my BMI was 30.1) and is now 29.5. Nothing like potentially having to wear a big white sack to get you focused.

I have also been loving flickr toys. I am trying to convince P that we should have a trashy wedding invite on a billboard. Awesome. I do think the whole Andy Warhol thing is cool in a slightly off beat way

He's not buying it. I think due to the fact we are getting married at the poshest place I have ever seen, where there be horses and helicopters, he's expecting the whole day to be classy.
I, on the other hand, am clearly so innately classy that filling the marquee with mirror balls and sparkly lights would just be perfect. Men should not be involved with wedding planning!

Anyway, my fitness blog has turned into a bridal rant, so off to do some abs.

Goal for the week- record my thoughts about how I genuinely am not hungry at the moment and something is clicking into place, so when sat on the sofa with bad tv, unable to motivate myself to go to the gymn, I can work out what happened.

Bad Bad Blogger

The half carat solitaire would be why my blogging has been baaad and to be fair my plans to compete in triathlons this year have been shelved. I can't justify sepnding money on equipment when there is a wedding to save for!

However, the thought of floating down the aisle in a very dignified manner in a beautiful slightly off white dress (yeh right) in November has got me going to the gymn on a very regular basis, and it wouldn't suprise me if I ended up as fit at the end of it as I'd planned.

I'm still going to continue to blog about exercise and life in general (not weddings though- I've promised myself not to become a bridezilla) as it's good for keeping myself accountable.

I can confirm that between Barcelona and Berlin with Christmas in between I gained 6 pesky ponds of which 4 are goneand 4 are soon to be gone. Slow and steady is the way this year- balanced food and exercise.

I'm still trying.... just not tri- ing!
