Week 2, Spring In2it!

Have survived the second week of Spring In2it! Only went to the gym once last week (PT was sick so missed a day). Also went to pilates. Walked the stairs with e tama, 4 x /day, 5 days/wk (it is not getting any easier!!!). Had a couple of short walks in the evening last week. Busy weekend so no exercise really - my wee Andrew was 17 on Saturday. Not doing so well with hydration but food is OK. However, still focused so that is positive. Really helps being part of a team as we check in with, & motivate, each other.

Attended the "Heart Healthy Lifestyles" presentation by Mary Spiers, Heart Health Advocate, last week. Perhaps a few changes might be needed including giving up butter and 'proper' milk.....hmmm?

Also went to LBlock to learn how to plant seeds & grow healthy food with Kim Thomas. As a result now have some packets of lettuce, zucchini & corriander seeds to plant at home.
