My fav workout on Zumba Core (Wii)

I love this one if you do it with leg weights you def feel the burn

Hot Yoga

Sooo I was seriously contemplating doing hot yoga and hot pilates then I remembered I hate hot rooms in addition to this I hate rooms with no windows and enclosed spaces, I would feel like I'm being interrogated. I think the older I get the worse the phobia gets. I can't even go in saunas they're just too much for me.I don't even like sweating, so that would be dumb of me to take myself somewhere to purposely sweat. So I guess I won't be doing hot yoga then

Really need to exercise

Everyday I look at my belly like *smh* and everyday I still do nothing about it and hope that 2mrw I will wake up and mysteriously have washboard abs. OK i do about 10mins 'exercise' every morning which consists of different stretches that are good for your core and then I put on some soca and do 5 mins slow wine and a 5 min wuk up and thats my workout lol although the last couple days I've been doing like 30-40 squats (reluctantly but I know my ass can't stay this way it's embarrassing .lol) but yeah that's all I do and I know that aint enough to make me loose weight or really tone up. I really need to make time to do my exercise dvds and my zumba then I can start back using my toning belt and doing belly wraps cuz there's no point doing them now it would just be a waste.

I do need to do this shit seriously though, I'm thinking maybe I might video my progress and then see where I am by the summer time... hmmm....

No jogging for me today

The weather was sooooo shit and the thing is I was prepared to run in the rain but then the closer it came to leaving the yard the harder it rained so I thought fuck it I'm just gonna stay my ass in my nice warm dry yard. But I will definitely be going tomorrow, even if it's snowing...

Still running

So I thought seeing as I'm on a roll that I'd go for another jog today and seeing as my mum was over I thought I'd drag her along too. She whinged from before we even got out of the estate, I was like look, you no more whinging just run fatty! hahahahaha (i didnt really call her a fatty, my mums bajan she woulda beat me lol) but yeah I said something to that effect....
So anywayz we went for out run and got round our route quite quickly and even better, both the monsters fell asleep in the buggy #Result so I will be going again tomorrow woohoo. I just throw on my Trinidad carnival 2012 mix and have myself a good old jog. But it's still boring though I'm not one of them people who enjoys jogging, honestly I prefer my exercise DVDs. So if I do not loose any weight ooooooh I'll be vex. Although I can see that I'm loosing weight off my face, I'm not such a fat head anymore, so it just needs to come off the belly then I'll be very very very happy wooohooooooooo

Run Fat girl run

So for some reason today I woke up and thought "right, I'm going for a jog" so I packed up monster 2 in the buggy and did a big jog. I was gone for like an hour or so, I did like interval jogging and at some points I even sprinted. well not quite sprint.. more like a bit faster than a jog but slower than a sprint, I just said sprint to make me sound cool lol
I sweated like a P.I.G so I must've burned a lot of calories, plus the added weight of a sleeping toddler in a buggy must've helped shed extra calories.
I actually felt a lot lighter when I got home.
Only annoying thing is, I was bursting to wee throughout my jog and jogging just made it worse and anytime I thought I'd just do a a lil sneaky wee in a bush someone came past, which is frustrating cuz that area is dead, but annoyingly on a Sunday everyone decides to come there on bike rides and walks and family drives aaaaaargh and cuz I didn't really want randoms looking at my black ass (or maybe even getting happy off the sight of it) I had to hold my wee which meant I couldn't really drink any water aaaaaarrrrrgh!
If it's not raining 2mrw who knows I may go jogging again...

OOOoooooooh this dumb weather

Whats goin on with this stupid weather, once again stopped me from going for a jog. I did my new, Ministry of Sound workout dvd and nearly died, I sweated sooo hard yuk, sweat. Like sweat pon sweat lol now my backs hurting cuz you flap about a lot in that workout. Realistically I shoulda had a long soak but I didnt have time so I had a quick shower instead... wish I had a bath....
Anywayz really fancied listening to this song today

Excersise...

So i know i probably spelt that word wrong but as usual i cant be assed to do a spell check, but i was supposed to be loosing weight in time for summer. I started off well but Ive kinda fell off and havent worked out for like 1/2 weeks. I got my 6 week 6 pack dvd and aint done it, in my defense i have been tryin to do a lot of walking with my heavy limo buggy, so that must be burning some calories and I have been eating healthy (most of the time) i have a thing for steak & salad at the moment (morrissons is good for nice cheap steak, you can even get a good deal on the ribeye sometimes) I normally get rump cuz its the meatiest (and normally the cheapest) part yummy.
I need to get back on the excersising thing cuz this belly aint gonna shift itself, i guess i cant even say it's babyfat anymore cuz my youngest is over 1 actually yeah it is still babyfat cuz he aint 2 yet, so when he's 2 then I'll admit that it's fat fat lol.
I do really want to work out I've got so much fun dvds and i really wanna do my belly dancing 1 as thats good for getting the whole hourglass figure, cuz at the moment i reckon i look a bit boxy and rectangular and shapeless basically, not cute.
I keep doin the fitness test on my Wii (when i can be assed) and I keep loosing weight then i put it back on so nothings really shifting permanantly.
Arrrrgghhh i need a holiday, but i refuse to go on a beach looking like this, i want to fit back into my bikinis

This is what my stomach should look like...

Instead it's kinda more like this...

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa

So I'm trying to loose weight again...

This seems to be the story of my life...trying to loose weight. I've given myself until September to do it (i dunno what I'll do if I'm still fat then) I think what I need to do is stop eating like a preggers person, for some reason I'm still eating for 2 like a greedy cow I've been eating like man portions of food even the hubbys like aint you gonna leave some back for 2mrw and I'm like No I'm eating it now then when he tries to challenge me I say my favourate thing 'Are you trying to say I'm fat!?' then that makes him shut up instantly lol

OK I know it's only been 3months, but I'm the only person I know who managed to put on weight the day they gave birth even my head looked like a hot air balloon! Can you believe my fingers have even put on weight, no I'm serious I put weight on my fingers I can't even wear my wedding ring, so when I tell ppl I'm married they look at my finger and they're like 'Oh you mean your partner' I'm like no 'I do actually mean my husband, cuz I do have one of those you know' bloody hell just cuz I have fat fingers at the moment doesn't mean no one don't love me :-(
OMG let me not even get started on my thighs fuck me they're out of control everyday I look at myself before I go in the shower (i can't help it, the mirrors just there) and I do one of them Homer shreiks at the sight of my thighs, dayummmm they are huge, and my hips like OMG none of my trousers fit me I have to wear dresses all the time cuz I'd rather be in denial and believe I'm still a size 12/14 than own up to the size that I actually am at the moment, now I say at the moment cuz theres no way I'm gonna be this size forever it just can't work.

I look at pics of me and my baby and I look like some big monster and shes all cute and dainty I'm just spoiling pictures now.

I've started doing my excersise DVDs but theres a lot of stuff i can't do cuz of my stupid wrists.

OH no and the bingo wings and back fat has come back too with avengence fuckin hell it looks bad. But the one good thing that came from me putting on a tonne of weight is that now for the 1st time in my life I actually have an ass woohooo I used to get teased for my 'flatty batty' even my mum used to be eveil to me so now I have one I don't wanna loose a peice of weight and my bum goes or my boobs.

Theres no point me saying oh i'm gonna work out at the gym cuz I don't really like gyms they're a bit boring I'm just gonna have to find a way that works for me. I need to loose 1.5stones o thats my challenge so hopefully in September I'll be reporting my good news.

Wooohooo I lost weight FINALLY!! Ladies loose weight the Jade way :-)

So it's taken me a while (7 months to be exact) but I managed to loose 1 whole stone and I'm very proud of myself. I didn't diet or starve myself or obcess over excersising or live in the gym I just looked at what I ate I thought to myself do I really need to be eating that much of that. Last year I was a proper fatty I won't tell you how much I weighed but trust me I was heavy (for my height) well I'm nearly 5,6 so that should give you an indication as to how big I shouldve been. I was proper fat and depressed and although I was excersising every now and then I was still putting on weight it got to the point where my legs felt like heavy and I kept getting pains in them as well as my back. Obviously my belly was like a preggers woman my thighs were taking over the world I had enuff back fat to cover England and my bingo wings, dayummm I could've flown to the Caribbean with those wings! I couldn't fit none of my clothes and had to start buying size 16 (and I'm normally a proud size 14) and I even had to stop wearing mini skirts and anyone who knows me knows I live in mini skirts (even in the winter I jus chuck on a pair of thick tights or leggings underneath) but yeah I had to stop wearing them because my thighs were so fat they kept pushing the skirt up so I was forver pulling it down with every step I took it was kinda embarassing and I felt so self concious even my beloved skinny jeans made me feel funny so I had to invest in a few pairs of dark size 16 skinny jeans and wear lots of long baby doll kinda tops and also cover my arms cuz they made me self concious too. Dayummmm I was fat even my head was fat.Then I went to see a dietician and that really helped I still eat what I want but I just don't eat bare of it, due to the fact that I get full quicker and I realized that all the times I was stuffing my face I wasn't even really hungry I was actually full, but obviously that didnt stop me. If I try eat as much as I did before I get like a really shitty stomach ache or if I try eat late at night (which is what I used to love to do) I get an even worse stomach ache which is a bit crap.

Anywayz so I ate less and excesised more, well when I can be assed I'll do my dvds cuz I really like the belly dancing and the Mr Motivator soca one but most of the time I just hop on my mini stepper and if I'm in the mood I'll do 30 mins (while watching something decent) or i'll just do 10-15 if I'm feelin lazy. I reckon the stepper was a good investment cuz it's so simple to use and it's just there and don't get in the way and it was just £35 in Argos and if i'm not doing that I'm bouncing round my flat randomly which can be fun if you are listening to like proper dance like Ibiza music. Oh yeah 1 of the big things that motivated me to loose weight properly was the magazine launch party. I brought the dress the year b4 and it wouldn't zip up and I was determined not to be the token fatty at my own party so I had lost a piece by that time and the dress was actually a bit loose on me :-)

But yeah when people say there is only 1 sure fire way to loose weight they are right and as boring and annoying as it seems if you eat less and excersise more the weight does actually drop off. Now I'm not sayin eat tiny portians cuz I dont i jus eat what I personally can manage and don't deny yourself anything, as you can see from previous posts I'm always indulging in alcohol and haribos and various other junk food but it's OK as long as you aint eatin bare of it everyday. Oh and don't count calories thats just gay.

But yeah the weight loss don't happen over night like I said with me it took 7 months it could take less for you cuz I'm sure if I would've cut out the alcohol i would've seen more results :-) But I'm getting there and I'm really proud of myself I just need to tone up and everything will be cool YEY. I should post up a b4 and after pic so you can see exactly wot I'm talking about. I'm really not eggagerating I was proper fat when I tell my friends how fat I was they were like there is no way you weighed that I'm like yeah I did I guess I used to hide it well under all them black trousers and floaty tops.

Ladies if you're trying to get in shape

Belly dancing and Hula Hooping are the way forward. Now I hate going to the gym, I just think it's the longest thing in the world. One day I was walking thru HMV and I came aross a cheap belly dancing DVD. Now I love a bargain, so I got it and it's really good. But I have to make sure I'm home alone with the curtains drawn, cuz I look soooooooooo uncoordinated doing it and what takes the piss is I can actually dance but somehow belly dancing makes me look like I cant LOL, But it's good for toning everywhere obviously especially the belly.

Heres something to get you started so you can see how it works your body.
