I've been neglecting my Skinny blog, but I've been inspired by Diminishing Lucy to get back on track to being Diminishing Maxabella. Being a bit more "public" with my blog will help I'm sure!
Last week I ran 800m down to the Blackmores Running Festival tent to pick up my sister's bib for her sterling efforts in the 9km fun run. Does that count? I got a blister for my efforts, so I felt like I was really a part of things. I'm trying to get back to running a couple of times a week. I go at eleven a.m. with my colleague Sean, who's a super-fit personal trainer in his spare time. I have to keep the jokes flowing and the conversation gossipy as we run otherwise he'll get bored and race off ahead of me. At least I know I'm not overdoing it if I can run and puff, sort, puff, of, puff talk at the same time.
I've been losing about 200g a week for three weeks now. I think that's fine. As long as the number goes down instead of up, I'm a happy lady. I do plan to step it up a bit more this week as I'm trying my best to stay on track with Good Golly Miss Holly's Plan, I've allowed myself 2000 kilojoules a day though. I have to be realistic. You can't walk from France to Africa overnight* and it's going to take me over a year to lose all the weight that needs to go.
* Was this an offensive statement? I meant more along the lines of 'rich buttery French cuisine' and 'lean, low-fat African fare'...

How much weight can you shrug with laughing?
I'm sure you're helping me diminish my kg's with laughter therapy every time you post.
Loving that you've snaffled a PT from within the ranks of colleagues and that you're jogging in your break = very committed.
Really wished you hadn't mentioned French food though....

Holly's plan will stand you in very good stead.
And this here blog is another thing of beauty.

Welcome to Fat to Fit Ms Maxabella! Nice to see you :) Thx for picking up the bibs. It was the beginning of a big adventure for me.
I was sneaky and looked around for this weightloss blog you mentioned! You are doing fabulously, and I think I have something to help you along that came to me courtesy of Lucy. I will email you in the morning ...

Welcome to Fat 2 Fit! I'm loving your blog. :)
Go Maxabella go!! You are an inspiration. I'll be rooting you on from afar.
I haven't been a runner for years. Hopefully I can work my back to being one.
Good Luck!
Ha! As always, a pleasure to visit one of your blog's. I like skinny street. I shall visit more often.
Loving the blog.
Consistant loss is good loss; Down is better than up!
Hooray. :)
Oh please write more on this blog! :-)
Just remember, little steps. There are 52 weeks in a year, so break it down a little. You'll lose a little bit each week, and before you know it it'll be a lot! Well done. Blogging here will help you I'm sure. I'm going to start running to Skinny Street!! See you there. xx
