I am just loving being back on the treadmill every morning. It sure does wake me up. It was so hot this morning while I was on there. I wore my iPod instead of just watching the telly and I had to walk heaps faster to keep up with Robbie's singing (yummo!!). Side note - is it wrong to fantasize when you're on the treadmill - ha ha ha!!!
Once i'd finished I just felt like I could conquer the world. Go me!!
My steps haven't been as high as I would have liked. It's the last day for my first week of "Emily's Fabulous Christmas Challenge". I've earnt $32 so far out of $60 with a maximum possible this week of $42 if I get to 11,113 steps today. I'm going to try really hard to make that total today as I really want the $42.
I'm giving myself a bit of leeway with the challenge as i've put in so much more effort this week and i'm so much more motivated and I feel I deserve a reward for that, but i'm not giving myself the extra $16 for achieving all of my goals cos I didn't track or stay within points last Saturday, even though I did put in an outstanding effort if I do say so myself!
Next week i'll make sure I get the whole $60 as i'm going to try and restrict my alcohol intake at the wedding on Friday. I'm also going to make myself get on the treadmill on Friday morning and try and do a lot more than I normally would, as i'll have plenty of time and MIL will be here looking after DS. Maybe I could even go for a walk out in the real world and get some fresh air!! Yikes, scarey!
It's been a fantastic week for me this week and i'm very very proud of myself. Of course I couldn't have gotten through it without venting to my very good friend Michelle, and without receiving all the positive comments and feedback from my fellow bloggers, geez what would I do without you all?
Thanks everyone! and have a great day.

Yes Bri, daydreaming on the treadmill is not a good idea. I've embarrassed myself more than once at the gym because of that!
Sounds like your challenge is going really well - you sound so motivated and determined. Fantastic stuff!
Keep up the great work :)
If you are daydreaming and the dream involves exercise shouldn't it count? You can get those steps in today BRi...can't resist a challenge can you? You are on fire this week. I am so proud of your attitude.
Good stuff on your efforts in the challenge this week!!!
I fantasise about Robbie fairly frequently, but would be too scared of falling off the treadmill!
It is a proven fact that fantasising about Robbie Williams helps you to lose weight faster because your heart can't help but beating that wee bit faster LOL.
Wish I had never given away my treadmill. You are doing so well Bri, keep going mate :)
Great going Bri and you will conquer!! The challenge sounds like it is workign well for you too. Keep it up :-)
