GOAL WEIGHT ONE ACHIEVED! 65KGS!
Ok, so the past three weeks have been super stressful with moving to London from Australia and I havent done any exercise apart from the large amount of walking it takes to get around London and Ive also not been eating much as Im that broke right now, but it feels good!
Today I ate 2 boiled eggs with a stick of celery, half a tomato and half a bell pepper and some olive oil and salt and...
cynicalgrey asked: So glad to see you are doing this :D I am following because I enjoy the healthy, veggie-minded weekly outlook you have. Plus... woman, you are just an inspiration to do, say, and feel the things I want to feel while living and staying strong. I've done p90x for 4-5 months, gave up because of the "addictive feel" of daily workouts. Before that I under ate and jogged every day. ...
twelfthfling asked: I admire your determination! Keep going but stay healthy alright? Can't wait to see you achieve your desired results!

azaleas asked: I've been following you on thedame for quite some time, but I have to say, you shouldn't be eating under 1000 calories a day! Your body goes into starvation mode and starts clinging to whatever fat you put into your body. Instead, eat lean proteins (like beans and nuts), and tons of veggies. And protein shakes help a lot. Green tea also spikes your metabolism.

You dont need a gym to get in shape
Today was a gorgeous day and I was in an excellent mood so I went down to the beach where they have fitness installations. Thanks to this post by Luc Carl, I wanted to see how many pull ups I could do and I knew there was a pull up bar on the beach. Unfortunately, the bar was missing, but I did do 45 tricep dips and ten push ups as well as three sets of 20 leg lifts (they get easier by the...

Fitspiration
So Ive been collecting pictures of girls with what I think is the ideal body, as well as butt and tummy pics and have put them in their own folder which I use as my screensaver, so when Im doing my leg lifts, squates and lunges, I watch these perfect, toned bodies float across my macbook screen and it pushes me to do another set :)

Goal weights and measurements.
When I was 18 (13yrs ago!), I was at my smallest. I was a dancer and took party drugs as well as diet pills made from ephedrine. I was a size 8 (US10) and weighed 55kilos. Thats the lowest weight Ive ever been at apart from when I was 16 and very sick and I weighed 47kilos.
Anyway, Id like to weigh 55 again, so:
19/7/10 - 65kgs - 143lbs

63 - 138
GW 60 - YES...
skinemine2b asked: You mentioned how you find it difficult to eat under 1000 cals....if that is so, try to eat mostly veggies and fruits...but mostly veggies ;) even if you don't believe in negative calorie foods...these are the best way to go because they are still soooo low cal and high in nutrition =] and water should be your best friend! <3

Another day of sweating it out
Even tho it was 36 degrees celcius today (pretty hot!) I still managed to do my 8min abs and yoga warm up before finally making it to my first 1.5hr Muay Thai class which was wicked. It was great to find out how hard I can kick and punch and the movements are gonna give me great arms and abs.
I then drove straight to my splits & flex class which is always painful but very good, damn I wish...

So annoyed.
So yesterday due to spending all day in bed with depression, I didnt work out and today, my Tom Tom took me to the wrong place to go to my first Muay Thai class, so I drove to the gym only to find it so full people looked like they were crawling over each other! And it was too cold to go for a beach run, so thats two days with no exercise! :(

Total work out day!
Yesterday I hit the gym but wasnt really feeling it so I did just 15mins hill interval on the treadmill then 3 sets of 15 rep 30kgs leg press and 3 sets of 15 rep chest press.
Later I went back to the gym to do a 1.5hr Body Combat class that totally kicked ass. Lots of high knee kicks, side kicks, hooks, jabs and serious sweating. No rest the whole class and I loved it. I was a bit...
