Breakfast: rice bubbles
Lunch: ravioli in bologese sauce with some cheese
Pre-Dinner: 2 hash browns
Dinner: Butter Chicken and rice (oohhh, indian food...so yummy)

Study: I've spent all day writing about 500 words of my BBA250 assessment :p On the bright side, at least I have an idea of what I'm doing now and I have started BEFORE THE NIGHT IT IS DUE! :D Also - I have written up a "Goal List" I want to accomplish for myself by the end of tonight :D I'm halfway through!!!

I still have to type up some stuff for tomorrow's SOC assessment though.


Exercise: None yet, unless you count random bellydancing around the house. I'll do some more stuff after I get through the "Style" part of my report.

I FOUND MY CAMERA!

Now... does anyone know how to find out if you can set your camera to take a picture within 10 seconds or so? (so I don't have to actually hold the camera to take a photo of myself. And no, none of my family members will want to help :p)

Will post up some photos after I get through more assessment work... now I have motivation! :D

Lunch: Sundried tomato and chicken on wholemeal bread

Dinner: a cup of brown rice with beef/vegies broth thing.

Snacks: About 5 peices of these lolly hard candy things (i can't help but eat them we got a whole carton from Optus)

Excercise: Nil so far (I shall decide if I will goto the gym on my way home though... soo buggery and tired though :( I hate stupid LONG days! arrghh

I think a little spread is fine, provided it's as least-processed as possible (eg real butter instead of margarine. It's got a much richer flavour, hence you use less :) ).

Shit claire what time is the gym open to? and what one do you go to?

This isn't an educated comment but surely going to the gym every day cant be too good for you? You seem like you feel you HAVE to go everyday but you should have some break between exercising. Isn't it like 3-4 times a week or something?

Use Winrar or Winzip (you both will need to have it).

Select your file, right click, add to archive or something similar. Then you should be able to fiddle around with settings and split the archive.

Then you have to upload all files...and the receipient has to download all of them. Once she (or me;)) has them, they'll be able to extract the file. You need all of the parts to be able to extract the movie file.

Hey Pb! That's absolutely awsome... 15 minutes is better than nothing mate and I know even after 15 mins on the treadmill i feel a lot better the rest of the day even if that is my only form of formal excercise i do for the day...

I'm crap at basketball, the last time i played was when i was 12 and i hit people (all my brothers friends) and snatched the ball off them and would run away.. i havn't tried since :s

Overall it sounds like you were active at least an hour or maybe more? for the whole day which can do wonders for your body :) Congrats honey I'm really proud of you! Oooh and no junk food too! I'm incredibly proud of you matie! I know how much you like your junk food!

Hey matie no thats not an uneducated comment at all. For begginners its recommended that you don't exceed 4 times a week because its easier to quit and although I'm not a superstar olympian (very far from it lol) but I have been doing cardio and been working out for a while now and can usually go 45+ minutes doing cardio without too much trouble.

A general guideline is that beginners should start with about 3 non-consecutive days of cardio and then work their way up to more frequent sessions and because I'm still at that stage where I need to lose weight I'm doing on average 5 days a week. (I didn't go on the weekend, weekends I am absolutely soo crap in terms of diet and excercise) but as soon as weekdays come again, I have routine again and I usually can get off my arse n do everything on my to do list.

Having said that though... people should be at least active 30 minutes everyday. If i didnt go to the gym I'de probably get about 15 minutes of activity a day if i was lucky. I have job where I'm constantly at a desk for sometimes 5 hours at a time, I'm a uni student so there are times (all nighters) where I'm on my ass for 8 hours doing a report or something and I dont play sport socially or anything of that calibre.


The general guidelines are:
To maintain current fitness level: 2-4 days a week (at least 20 minutes)
To lose weight: 4 or more days a week (at least 30 minutes) I usually do about 45 minutes of cardio on a normal day but if I eat something bad (i.e on the weekend i had chicken man) I'll do an hour of moderate intensity cardio.

Basically the principles I abide by is if i eat bad = more excercise, eat good = less excercise.

I know it may seem like I'm obsessed with the gym, I'm not really it just makes me feel better because my lifestyle is so inactive. So yes in that sense I do go a lot but only to compensate for all the inactivity.
