Mangrovejane's Journal, 26 Apr 10

What a week! The littlest member of our family started with the flu this week. Then successfully passed it on to DD1 then onto me as well. I think I'm the world's worst sick person. I get cranky and tired, then crankier that I'm cranky and tired.

Anyway, as a result, I haven't been able to get to the gym or get out and get any training done.

On the upside, I've been trying on clothes that used to be tight on me and guess what?! They actually fit!!! Some of my old clothes are getting loose. I was wearing one of my old pairs of shorts while hanging out the washing the other day and realised that if I didn't reach down to grab them and yank them up, that I would end up in full view of the neighbourhood with my pants around my ankles! That was a bit of an "A-HA!" moment and when I started trying on my other clothes :D

I also wore a pedometer, just out of interest around the house as I was running around after small sick people and was really suprised with the amount of steps I am doing each day without even doing any serious walking. At my peak, I managed to clock up 6,000 steps! Granted this was on a day when I was doing housework, laundry and playing nurse to the babies, but it was still MUCH more than I expected!

I will be on more when I'm feeling a bit better. Hope you are all well and happy :)

Isn't it amazing how many steps a busy person can do without even knowing it? I was wearing my stepper when I first started, and have used it before. I am a nurse and have walked over 4 miles in a shift but I find that I do so much more on most given days at home. Hope everyone is doing better.
