Pumping up the Jam

I’ve been on Just Dance on the Wii Fit twice this week after buying it last week. It’s so much fun! The first time I was on for half an hour and yesterday I went on for 45 minutes, really working up a healthy sweat and bouncing about the living room like a girl possessed. So far my favourite songs are Pump up the Jam and You Can’t Touch This because it’s quite fast paced and involves lots of opportunities for jumping and dancing in ways that should only ever happen in my living room! D was fairly impressed and kept popping in and out to watch me act like a crazy person, doing his own variation of dancing that, again, should only happen in our living room so nobody else has to endure it.

Food wise, I’ve been trying to be good and stick to the plan, although it really throws me when we go out for a meal or I have to eat out at work. I’m much happier when it’s a normal week and I stick to my regular routine. I’m feeling a little anxious about the weigh in on Monday but I definitely have to go and get weighed as I missed last week due to over indulgences at the York weekend away.

I’ve been feeling a bit sensitive about my weight, especially on weekends as I just feel like I’m missing out on doing the things I want to do. I’m so sick of sitting at home and not having the motivation to do anything but watch TV or play on the computer. I’m not even doing any housework or anything but what I really want to be doing is getting out in the sunshine and enjoying myself. It’s starting to get sunnier and warming up, and as I type this, I’m sat on the couch while D has gone out for the day on his mountain bike. I’m supposed to be going to the shops to do the food shop later but I’m feeling like I just want to sit here.


So, feeling a bit up and down at the moment. Will get my behind off the couch at some point today to do the shopping and then at least I’m up and about. Looked through all the Weight Watchers recipe books that we have this morning, and there are loads of recipes I want to try out especially the soups. I get the feeling the soups could come in useful for next week if I need to kick up the weight loss a notch.
