Physio?!

Good morning my beautiful blog...

Yesterday was a good day...

Exercise wise I did a 4k run - pain in knee still there. Finished off with Nike Training CLub. No pain in knee during those exercises.

This morning however, running to the bus I felt a sharp pain in my knee and it was quite painful. I was worried I wouldnt be able to do the boxercise class but it went well. I now know it's only related to when running. Apparently it's something called the ITB syndrome one of the 5 ' big ones' for more infor press here. It might be it, that's exactly how I feel.

Pain is exactly on the same spot too...

I booked an appt with a physio therapist for Monday afternoon just to be on the safe side. If it is an injury I wanna do as much as possible to keep the 'damage' limited.
Nothing major, but better safe than sorry... :D and either way I'll be getting a good massage! :)

I'm looking forward to trying out something different tonight. I'll be doing a British Military Fitness session. First time is free, so it's a trial this time. Should be interesting, I'm always up for a fitness challenge :)

Just hope I won't feel annything in my knee...!

Time for lunch soon.. I'm soooo hungry!

Catch you later amigos xx

Exercise..

Hiyaaa :)

So - Yesterday I did a small run with S.B near our house, my knee hurt a bit so I started off with a power walk.. felt better when we finished the lap so we decided to do a proper one jogging easily... was fine.

Today I'll be putting in some more effort. Doing a 4k run and then 1h Nike Training Club. kinda tough, just hope my knee won't hurt today.

My eating has been on a 7-8/10. Could be better. Will be better... The sunshine is playing mind games on me, putting me into relax mode. But I'm on it :)

Ciao friends! xxx

Love...

If my heart had pictures....

Beautifully true.. <3...

New week!

But before that, here's my weekend....

Friday started at the gym, I went there intending to do a Spin class only seeing as I done 3 classes on the Thursday. But when I was there I figured I might aswell do a Body Pump aswell...

So I did, and it was great. Hard but very gooood... after that I was on my way home but Amal & Aurore was nearby so I stopped by and said hi :)

HIII :D

After that I strolled on home, planning how I'd spend the beautiful weekend.. was sooo tired!

Saturday

Morning comes, I wake up quite early, wake S.B up too. The sun is blazing hot and its only 9.30!!

It was a hot run in the sun....

 

After the run we got ready and drove up to Bluewater Shopping centre :)

We spend allllllll day in JOHN LEWIS - big sale on -! Yes.. the whole sunny day lol! However it was worth it and we grabbed some nice bits :D :D

After that we went home, put on the barbeque and enjoyed a nice grilled meal by the masterchef himself :)

So focused... :)

Had to make sure everything was in order lol..

Waiting for the meat :) mmmm yummy...

Sunday

Woke up quite early again, did some arrends in the morning.. then home to enjoy the sunshine, footie and food. I spent most of the day in the kitchen but hey lol.. I enjoyed it.

In the afternoon I went over to Danni's and had a nice chilled out evening there...

Pretty much it :)

Ready for a new week now...

I MEAN - NEED I SAY MORE!?

I looooove me the sun, love love loooove it! And now I see that it's lasting the whole weekend. It's lasting for the whole beautiful midsummers weekend! :) Cant wait to indulge in it!

England is playing today and I've been invited by Dell Perot to come watch it on their floor, and also by some others to join them at the pub. However, seeing as I have my duties at reception it's IMPOSSIBLE! So I will enjoy it online. My live update from google lol...

It will however sting badly on Friday when Brazil are playing Portugal cause I re-he-he-heeaalllyy wanted to see it!! Oh well.. at least I'll have the Chile-Spain game in the evening! BRING IT BRAZIIL!

Yesterday after work was a loong hot journey home. It was so hot in the evening, but im not complaining :) Got home , got changed and went for a long run with the mister. Did 2 laps around our area.. took me about 45 min. Should have covered at least 6k. Which I was supposed to.

Tonight I'll be doing bodypump and a 5k run....... :)

Oh yea. I was 30 min late this morning! DAMN YOU TUBE!!! Not youtube. Just damn YOU...the tube.. lol! Although technically it wasn't the tubes fault. More the buses near me. But oh well.. Im not one for excuses... lol MWAH!

Thankful Tuesday!! :)

1. The weather is AMAZING! :)
2. I did something today that I've put off for a while , feels goood that I done it!
3. THE SUN IS SHIINIING :D :D

Ok, helloo my blogette!

First off. I have a confession. I never made my 5k run yesterday. The reason was the fact that I had to prepare lunches for the week. I WOULD have done it on Sunday but I was out n about with my friend so it got delayed.

I started cooking and it took a bit longer than expected. But this is what was cooked :

• Spaghetti Bolognese
• Chicken Kiev
• Curly Fries
• Greek Salad
• Mango Chutney Chicken
• Tasty rice a la Me :D

After my very productive evening and after the lunches were packed, we put on a dvd.. ONG BAK - The Beginning.

I LOVED IT! I of course went martial art crazy and started showing S.B how incredibly brilliant my karate, tae bo and muay thai is!

After attacking him and making him surrender - of course I won - I decided to call it a night and went to the bed.

No exercise done yesterday but this evening a minimum 4k run is on the agenda! :)

Arrividerci friends!! :D

p.s IM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE BRAZIL - PORTUGAL GAME!! CHILE- SPAIN too! lol xxx

Mini Update!

Weekend was great!

In no particular order....

Got loads and loads of rest, finished my book :(, hung out with Eunice, saw a boxing fight live vip tickets. Was great.

Cooked some yummy pancakes, rented dvd's, almost crashed,  had some wine + indian take away, chilled out with the Mr and done some foodshopping.

Yea that's about it. New week, new motivation , new spirit! :D

Today exercise wise I have a 5k run and some exercises on the agenda. Plus I need to cook lunches for at least 3 days. Exciting Monday! lol

Peace , Love & Brownies with ice cream mmmm!

Book Club!

Me & 2 dear friends of mine have decided to start a book club.

Ok, let me rephrase that cause they will read this and I don't LIE on my blog. In fact. I don't lie ever. :D

Anywho, I was invited to join, and as the BOOK LOVER I am , who am I to say no? I am looooving the idea, and can't wait for our first book date. However I think we're kinda the updated version of bookclubs so after the book discussion we'll watch the movie too!

WHY? Because we can YAY!

Bring on the book nights...

This is us, kinda. Replace the tea cups for wine glasses, and the flowers for some treats and we're good to go! Marvellous :D Our first books will be Twilight! (I'm on the 4th, but they just finished the 1st. I know. Sooooo slooow) lol xx

EXCITED!

In September I will commence my student life.

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

Great week so far!

Monday came quicker than expected ...

I didnt have a chance to rest up properly after the baby buzz Zoe left us with, so Monday had to be a rest /catch up with chores day, and make lunch for the rest of the week, but it only lasted for yesterday and today. I made a huuuge tuna salad, with tricolore pasta... yummy!

Exercise so far this week has been :

Tuesday : 5k run + 1h Nike training club

Today : 1h Boxercise in the morning , 6k run evening plus abs.

Still feeling motivated. I just gotta keep on my tippytoes with regards to food since my dear family brought me LOADS of sweety treats from Sveeduuun!
