100 Small Steps Challenge days 22-28




Day 22 and I went to a local shopping centre to do some Christmas shopping and managed to clock up 8450 steps and made 2.5 bonus Weight Watchers points...and managed to get a fair bit of my Christmas shopping done as well.







Day 23 and we (Kathy from work and I) decided it was time to put up the Christmas tree in the reception area at work. I love this one and it actually belongs to one of the bosses. She loans it to the practice then takes it home as needed. It is a beautiful tree. Also special on this day was my dad came home from hospital (following on from last weeks post when he had to go back after the family gathering) and my nephew Corey and his wife Sarah welcomed to their family a brother for Madeline, Joshua. Congratulations !!!!










Day 24 and I did a bit of light reading...actually some good stuff in these magazines. Some of it waaaayyyy too appropriate for me!!!!













Day 25...Disco Fever (haha) Fernwood had a disco party for their Christmas party and what a hoot!! We danced the night away. They had games...a limbo one and our lovely trainer Elizabeth (aka Atilla) won that one. There was also musical statues and musical chairs.We were having so much fun and were supposed to be finished at 9pm but we kept the music going and eventually at 9:15 they turned on the main
overhead lights (party poopers lol) I actually managed over 9000 steps that day!!!

This pic shows a couple of the Fernwood ladies with Elizabeth in the foreground with her back to the camera. She's our little pocket rocket PT.

It was a fantastic night and I would love it if they would do more of them.











Day 26 saw us have our patient bbq at work. Here is some of the dessert...yup some of it was healthy!!! The pavlova with the server sticking out of it was my contribution and I can honestly say I did not have a piece of it...due mainly to the fact that I find pavlovas way too sweet. I must say the table fitted in beautifully between the parallel bars in the gym area!!!






Day 27 started off ith a shamozzle of a Weight Watchers meeting (I am now a volunteer and slowly larning th ropes) as the centre we use is a neighbourhood house and closes for a few weeks over December and January. We have been lucky enough to be able to use the adjacent tennis club rooms but were supposed to have our meeting in the "house" on the 12th then move to the tennis centre from the 19th. We arrived to find that our stuff had already been moved and a few (vital) things were missing. Of all days as Heather and I had plans to meet up with a fellow GYST gal from the WW thread. It all worked out in the end and we met up with the lovely Deb from Tullamarine. She brought her daughter along and my daughter was also there! This picture shows Heather (centre) with Deb and me.

Day 28 was of course Sunday and I have no picture for that day. I had a rest day and didn't "do" anything specific. I did however take my son to his dad's for a few days as he was becoming a tad over the top.

Till next week,

hugs
