Today is a new start!!

Time is running away fast and the big day will be here before we know it - so this time IT'S SERIOUS!!!!!!!!
Last night after a few hours of pampering myself - footspa, faciaI (including steaming!), intensive conditioner on hair, de-fuzz then french manicure on hands and feet!!! - After that I carefully wrote out my intentions for daily exercise regimes and eating plans and I now have to do my best to stick to it - but lets just say today didn't get off to a fab start!! My routine was all put to cock when my other half arrived home from work early. Now normally I wouldn't complain as I feel he works too many hours normally and arriving home 45minutes earlier than usual would delight me - after all it means more cuddling time, but on Day 1 when it was most unexpected I was all in a tizz, so I missed my all important physio exercises and ab crunches. Will just have to do double tonight, I think doing them next to my desk will attract some attention that I probably don't want at work.......

Normally at lunch I surf the net - check my emails, chat/lurk on the forum, check Facebook and get my nosy fix to see what new photos people have added, what people are chatting about, who is friends with who that I might know or what people say they are up to on their status....I tell you, you can find out some stuff this way! I recently found out my cousin had got engaged throughhis brother's Facebook status! 2 weeks later, I wouldn't have been told any other way I don't think. I mean I told my dad and I think he was shocked at how I found out. Although I know I am probably a little too addicted to FB seeing as I have gone through about £15 of credit on my mobile just by checking out Facebook, so now I am not topping up until I need to in 2 weeks time (in order to get my free minutes) Already getting twitchy and its only been 12 hours!!!!! What does that say about my life?!!!!!

Anyway - back to the point. Normally I would spend my entire lunchtime at my desk flicking from one website to another (normally have the sites open in different windows and flick through them depending on how long they are taking to load - and when your company only "unlocks" internet use for two hours from 12pm til 2pm the loading time can take foreeeevvvvveeeerrrrrrrrrrrr......but then again I suppose I AM here to work. But I am getting off the point again!!
From today I am going to leave the office at 1pm, strap on my ankle weights (!) and take myself off for a half hour power walk. Combined with the half hour walks with the dog every morning and evening I should be fitter in no time...... ?????

Off now to eat my Special K breakfast and after my lunchtime walk I have another bowl of Special K to look forward to ..........
