I forgot about how much Pain.......

There is when your getting a PT!! Awwww my god.. its been about 8 weeks since i had a PT at the gym and im feeling sorry for myself today. Not only is my butt sore my thighs and hamstrings i can't hardly sit down and get up!!! I had a massage this morning thinking it might help but i don't think it has, i must keep stretching today and moving to help release this soreness from my body.

Im glad im back doing them though because now im pushing myself and building my strength back up.

Im really excited my sister is coming to stay with me in two weeks time... Its been ages since just me and her hanged out so im looking forward to doing some sister things together!!

Well my lil man is having a sleep so i might get some house work done while i can.

I feel Lost!

It has really hit me today about me being a single working mum! I use to go off my head that adam didn't see his son enough and now the tables have turned!

Not only is seb a lil daddy's boy and everything is daddy and him wanting to spend time with daddy, but I feel lost. friday morning i started work at 7.45am. I was up at 6.30 had a shower and got ready for work. Woke seb up at 7.00 changed his bum packed the car and off to creche it was. Mmmmm i spent a whole 10 minutes with him. When i dropped him off at creche he screamed his head off, because he didn't want me to go! Im really missing the time that we had together and I feel because i work late nights and he is spending all his time with his dad that im losing the connection we had. Its hitting my heart and it hurts. Like today. Adam was around to help me with my student desk and he had to go home for a bit, and he picked seb up to give him a kiss good bye and i put my arms out to get seb off him, and he didn't want to come to me, he kept turning his back to me... over and over again... Adam said to me to stop being silly and not to take it to heart but how could i not, when my own son didn't want to be with me. Its just been a few lil things this week that have happened with seb that make me realise am i being to strict on him? should i loosen the string a bit?? But then there is the nasty side of me that is saying no, you don't want a spoilt child who gets away with everything. I think seb has realised who lets him do stuff and who doesn't. he may only be 14 months old but he knows. Children are smarter than we give them credit for!

Can someone make some sense of what im going through here? or am i worrying about nothing and if that is the case someone tell me to pull my head in!!

Sydney

Well i spent the weekend in sydney at a conference for work, and met some more chiropractors and their CA's ( chiropractors assistance) and it was overall and very exciting weekend. I learnt lots not only about myself but how my bosses now want their business to run and what they want to achieve..

I learnt alot about universal laws and headspace, and how powerful your mind and concsious is and how it can affect your day to day routines, thinking etc..

One tip that i really liked and will start doing more of is journelling more, and writing appointments and day to day activities in a diary.. WHY.. well look at it this way, when we say that we are going to go for a walk today, most of generally won't do it. But when we actaully write it down in the diary and give it a time and a place we generally more incline to keep that appointment.. so if i say im going to go for a walk today from 9.30am - 10.30am around the lake, i know i will do it.. Does that make sense??

mindset is very strong.... Synergy is very strong!! And having personal goals is important for everyone.. If you wake up in the morning going i hate going to work, i hate my life blaah blaah of course your going to have a shit day.. but if you wake up in the morning knowing you have purpose you have something that you want to achieve then your day is going to be fantastic because you know you are that one step closer to achieving your goal. So for me im going to work not only because it is fulfiling for me, but i have to support my son, and im saving for a new car, so i look forward to working every day!! Looking at things as positives instead of negatives all the time.

When i first started my bosses said to me that it is so important to concentrate on your patients that are coming in for the day, that the appointment book is full, etc and i was like ohh right,, then what i klearnt on the weekend, made it all make more sense to me.... If your thinking about what is going on in your life, what you have to do after work, etc your patients are more likely to ring up and reschedule or cancel to give you more time to think about yourself.. where as if your thinking about your patients and how they are coming in today to help get their spine aligned so they can function to their full potiential, they are more likely to make their appointment.

They energy in the office on monday was fantastic.... and not only was it one of the busiest days that i have had since being their, we had 3 new clients ring in and book in for that monday.. so it was good...

THIS WEEK IS CHIROPRACTIC WEEK so please look after yourself and go and see a chiropractor.. try something alternative before turning to medicine. Not only have i seen the benefits that it is doing to me, and sebastyn, i want other people to understand the importance of being healthy. Its not only about your spine correct, and your nerves functioning properly and allowing your organs to function, but its also about what your putting into your body. So many processed foods are so bad for you. When Beck first told me that Matt made all food fresh and from stratch i was like hell i don't have time for that.. But now i see the importance. If you can eat only one thing organic try and make it your meat. Processed meat is very high in chemicals and fat...

On that note, im going to have a shower and get myself ready for work while seb is sleeping.

Week 16 - Weigh in and 11CMS less Arse

Wow what a week i have had... Sydney was awesome exciting and beautiful!! learnt lots and can't wait to see what my future holds for me.
I got Measured this week and sheree was giving me my overall lost of cms.. and i have lost 11cms off my butt!!! Weight went down but body fat hasn't so i have to work on that... so back to food diary.

Well i have a lil one trying to steal my computer so i must be off.. i will update more when i have a moment of peace.

Weigh in Week 14 & 15

Ok first update i will do is i love my job... the people i work with are great and the clients are great and i feel great..

Weigh in Week 14 I weighed in at 76.4 and this week I weighed in at 75.5 kgs.. So guess what I have 9.5 kgs to go to goal weight. How exciting is that?? Im excited i tell you.

Im feeling good about myself and feeling healthy even though im not eating enough. im eating lots of soup the last couple of days because i finish work late its something easy to cook and eat.

Well thats, that out of the way..

Okkkk i don't really know where to start....

MY HOUSE!! i will have to borrow my bros camera and take some photos. i have been here nearly 3 weeks and im so not settled in yet.. hahaha funny that when you work and have a child.... maybe sometime soon i might have some stability in my life... LOL

MY JOB- Well i am what they call a chiropractic assistant, and i love my job i really do.... i am off to sydney this weekend for a conference which i am looking forward to. Weekend away with my bosses, get to learn a little more about them :) I have just started learning rooms as i have been on front desk for the last 2 weeks and i tell you when u are in rooms you have no concept of time.. Its amazing seeing the chiropractor at work and how she does things. I have been getting adjustments the last few weeks and i have been taking seb also and it does wonders. my body is changing slowly, but i can feel the changes... and in the long run it will be better for my health and well being.

MY SON - Seb is a little terror and i love him to bits.. he is growing up to this lil young man so quickly.. good first impressions he made on saturday nite out for Becks tea though. Spewed everywhere didn't he beckie???? Was lovely!!!! Sorry Brock and Michelle :) hehehehe hopefully next time you see him he might be happier.

MY EXCERCISE - LOL hahahaha what exercise... i have been so slack, but i am tyring to get myself into a routine.. but im starting back PTing next week which i am looking foward to as i have been losing weight but not the body fat and i need to get that down. Aiden who is one of my bosses is so good full of information. i could talk to him all day about eating and exercise etc, but one thing that i am trying to do is eat organic. so seb and i have been having organic milk and veggies as i am trying to cut down on the chemicals that we put into our body.Also a tip that he gave me... You should drink 1 ltr of water to every 30kgs you weigh every day. so there is something useful for you. I am going through a lot of changes in my life right now, but its all for the good, and its about me having the energy levels i need to keep me going every day and to be able to play with my lil boy and be able to do the things that i want to do.

MY FRIEND BRON - Well my friend bron has been overseas since october has fallen in love with a aussie bloke and now is back for a few weeks. but we can't catch up which is a bummer and i miss her... and so we talking on the phone the other day and she won't be back again until march next year.... think i might have to save my pennies and go and visit her in canada... Can be a goal that i can aim for :)

Well i have to start work nice and early in the morning so i should get some shut eye.. hope this is an update to keep you all going.... i can' wait to read everyones blogs and see how you are all going and what you been up too!!!

Until next time, which won't be that long away... Take care and smile at a stranger!! you will make their day

Weigh in - Week 13 & and a House Finally

So its been two weeks since i have been weighed. but i weighed in at 77.1 and body fat the same. the last two weeks have been very draining on me with work and trying to get into a routine. I have not exercised i have not eaten properly so i need to get some order in my life.

On a positive note i am loving my job, I love the environment, I love the people I work with, and im learning lots about the body and health.

I am having adjustments done to my back, and yesterday I had x-rays done to see what areas of my spine need work! I am also taking sebastyn in today to have his first visit and determine if chiropractic can help him.

On another positive note, i finally got a house. which i move into on saturday. I am so excited and so happy that everything is finally working out for me! Its 3 bedroom has a huge backyard and has a bath. so the first thing i am going to do is have a bloody bath since its been s long.

Well i can smell a nasty smell coming from sebastyns lil bottom so i must go change it and get on with my day.

Hope everyones week has been good and i hope to catch up with everyones blogs soon.
