Fitness Expo

I had a day off today (one of those rare things for me) so I packed it FULL to the brim of things that were just begging to be done.

First off my hair that was in BAD need of some loving. I had roots poking through my pinkish (faded Red) hair that were about 1 Inch long! OMG some TLC from my dear friend Kylie and 5 or so hours later a gorgeous Blonde has emerged! Thank God we started early! It's no where near done yet. Probably go at it again in 3 weeks then again 3 weeks after that.

Then it was off to Fitness Expo. This was my first Melbourne expo and I have to tell you it's less than a quarter of the size of the Sydney expo and it's got NOTHING on a motivational or discount level like the Sydney one does. However it is still motivating to have something like this to attend.

I was so happy to see Tim from EAS. He has and always will be a great influence in my life. He runs Body-for-Life Australia and is a big hand with all the questions I have had. It's been such a long time since we have caught up.

I also bought a couple of things. Wraps for boxing with Sanjay and an Ultrafit subscription. (Only Ultrafit and Runners Mag were there :-( In Sydney you could go to any of probably 10 magazines for subscriptions! ) Now I need someone to teach me how to wrap my wrists so I can punch harder. I was going to buy some pink Boxing Gloves but they only had 14oz and I wanted 10oz gloves. I wasn't going to take home 14oz gloves (they felt too big) and I wasn't going to settle on black or red when I really want pink so they stayed there.

Then it was off very quickly to pick up the car before the repairer closed and we finally got back home around 8:30pm. It's been all go since 8am so a big day all in all. But I have chosen my foods well. Drank my water and had my supplements. I am calling using crutches around fitness expo a workout though thats for sure. My hands are killing me! I think I should use my weight gloves on the bigger outings with crutches.

I can't believe how well I have been doing in the last couple of days! It's like something in my life has done a u-turn and now I have found the right road and it's all downhill right now. Easy (did I just say that?)

I'm training with Sanjay everyday next week until I drive to Sydney on Friday to see the boy :p I need to go shopping for something to wear between now and then.

Lets keep fingers crossed for a continuation of this trend.
