Wow! I am loving KIMAX. If you don't know what it is, it combines boxing, Mai thai (sp), and kickboxing.
I love being able to smash the crap out of something.
Today I walked out of the gym shaking! I worked my arse off!
I am used to having at least one other person on the bag with me. So that means, you do the move, step back, they do the move, then your back in. So you "kind of" get a little break between moves.
Today I had a bag to myself. Well I sheared it with the instructor. So she would show the move twice then it was me. So that meant I was doing each move continually. Full on, punch, kick, elbow over and over!
I bloody loved it but far out I was exhausted! All I kept thinking was, gee I bloody better get some results this week!

Sharing my love
Again I have to ask, who is this person, what have you done with Tracey!
I am so addicted to the gym its actually quite funny. If I don't get to go when I want to I get a bit antsy!
I took my friend Gen this week, I felt proud to show her my Gym and what I love. We did a class together. We are both hurting bad today. I can't sneeze without feeling like I am dying. My ab muscles are so sore. The gym instructors tell me that is a good sign. They are so funny!
I felt proud to share the gym with Gen and show her something I am so proud of.
The gym currently has a 5 week challenge running. 30 classes in 5 weeks. That means I would have to do 6 classes a week to be in with a chance! I would love to give it a red hot go. I am just hampered by having the kids. lol I know that sounds bad. But, I can only do the classes during the week, in the morning as that is when the creche is open. I have tried a couple times to go to some night classes but that has just involved more drama's than an episode of Home & Away! So I will just do what I can. I am already going more often than I normally would before they started the challenge, so it is a good challenge for them to run.
I have joined a group that has people who have had or are going to have the sleeve. It is so refreshing to see those that have just started their journey and to see them have the same fears and questions as I did. I do hope I can be an inspiration to them and answer their questions and fears.
I am so proud of what I have achieved, I am blown away by the results.
One of the subjects in this group has stood out for me. Some of those just about to be sleeved and worried about events coming up where they won't be able to eat. For example going on a cruise or a birthday party etc. If you remember reading back, I had the same worries. But now that I am here, food is just a energy tool now. I haven't missed one single thing. There is nothing I can't eat, it is just the amount of it that has changed. I mean I wouldn't bother going to Sizzler's as it would be a waste of money really, but to be honest, I am eating quality rather than quantity now. I would rather eat a beautiful cut of meat or a yummy piece of fish than some dodgy salad or packet soup. Ok I lie, I would love a bit of cheese toast! (anyone going there soon can you send me a slice hahaha). But like I say, I could go if I wanted to, I wouldn't eat much so its just not financially worth it for me. I went to a buffet dinner last weekend (part of a night out), I still got to eat what was offered. I just made the right choices as to what I know I would get the most benefit from .
I have been snacking after dinner the last few weeks. I don't know why I am, I am not even hungry! I am just having cravings. Last night I had a cheese & biscuits, a snack packet of chips and a packet of fruit nuggets). I am trying so hard not to. I am in future going to go to bed as soon as I get the cravings. (Well tonight I decided to blog).
I have had an amazing responce to my before and after photo (taken last time I blogged). The photos have been shared by some of my friends and even by another branch of my gym! I am so proud. The comments have been so supportive.

“Life is too short to waste any amount of time on wondering what other people think about you. In the first place, if they had better things going on in their lives, they wouldn't have the time to sit around and talk about you. What's important to me is not others' opinions of me, but what's important to me is my opinion of myself.”
