  1. Well it’s official... after weighing in this morning I can officially say 3 things... 1. I haven’t weighed this little since I was 17 years old 2. I can deadlift more than my body weight 3. When I lat pull down and release my knees from the pad I get pulled upwards like a small child holding onto a spinning clothesline LOL
  2. Naw thanks freaky ❤️❤️❤️ J@ and I love you too x
  3. Update... Did every morning this week with a break for the weekend... feeling really good and strong. Monday’s legs Tuesday’s back and biceps Wednesday’s chest and triceps Thursday’s core and glutes Friday’s cardio only weekend’s rest/run/long walk Didn’t wanna include my ugly mug but just an idea of what 50kgs lost looks like... For reference I am 5ft 3 and was a size 22 in the first pic and now a size 8-10. Got some bit and pieces this morning as I’m finding I really need more protein. Hard to get a good amount in my diet naturally as I don’t like meat much and I like quick and easy through the day... so got some slow release protein desert for night time and some for after work outs ... Also stepped up my thermogenic powder game as I was on oxyshred for the last 2 months and felt like it wasn’t doing much for me anymore... so we will see how this goes
  4. Conquered a fear this morning. Under 1kg to go until a total loss of 50kgs and I figure it’s time to get strong again. So went to a new gym this morning and started strength training again. going to the gym at my previous weight was something that both scared me and felt impossible, but at 5 this morning I got to the gym and smashed out a leg session followed but some low intensity cardio focusing on climbing... Feeling shaky but good and actually excited for tomorrow morning
  5. Thanks keif... I more meant she refuses to chase it to begin with... even the metre... and I’ve done it with her favourite toys and she just looks at me like “wtf why did u throw that” 😂 But I will endeavour to continue to try LOL
  6. I cannot refute that statement to a great degree ... the reason being the recent evidence that said “dog people” have provided on my interactions with them recently. I bought my dog for it’s life cycle, in fact, the puppyness (whilst admittedly adorable) is my least favourite part of the dog lifecycle. However, the constant gushes from morons (who always mention their dogs in the brief interaction) who feel compelled to come up and allow/encourage your puppy (unprompted) to jump all over them and lick them etc... gets freaking tiresome real quick!!! I’m trying to teach my dog the right social etiquette so she’s not “that dog” and you’re undoing it all by (without permission) forcing yourself onto my dog and making them misbehave essentially. In fact, the two times I’ve been asked “hi, may I pat your pup” I nearly fell over... as it seems, just like with pregnant bellies, morons feel they’re public property for the touching!
  7. I honestly cannot recommend a BC highly enough... I fully understand we are city dwellers, but I got her for a running buddy and immediately she was like a piece of furniture in the family. She’s the most affectionate and loving pup. So clever (our trainer said there is a list of dogs from smartest to dumbest... then there’s a whole new book for the BC). Within the first week she was training well and even rolling over, as an 11 week old that’s pretty cool. Definitely needs stimulation... not so much physical but mental... she thrives on challenges and agility... but refuses to fetch a ball (trainer thinks she’s too smart for it and therefore has no interest maybe🤷🏼‍♀️) To add to the weight of it, we have about 9 BCs between myself and my colleagues (we have work dog days where we take our pups to work)... and every single person reports the same thing, in fact several have multiples because they loved their first one so much they needed a second. On these days everyone’s dogs are running around the office causing havoc half the time, but all the BCs are just off leash sitting by their owners desk. As long as you invest time into training, and plenty of loves (fly is legit the most affectionate dog I’ve ever met, even spooned j@ to sleep and he didn’t even want a dog LOL), then they’ll be your best buddies for life... and given the big space you have for them to run, they’d love it. Just my experience.
  8. Very true puffy!!! I can’t believe how irresponsible some people are! That must have been bloody scary!
  9. Yeah for sure keif... I’ve been around my fair share of dogs and the very distinct stance this dog was taking and moving with was very telling of aggression.... it doesn’t make it easier that the breed/size of the dog is more threatening by nature for sure... but when the hair is raised, tail erect and body fully stiff as it’s moving toward you with its mouth open and teeth snarling then it’s kinda scary I will say. Very scary to think of what the outcome could have been as once a dog starts attacking it isn’t something I have really dealt with or thought about and not something I want to experience if I can avoid it.
  10. Dog owners who are kaaarnts is wpmo Out for my 5am walk/run with the dog and some lovely specimens are outside their house and their pitbull looking dog is off leash and runs out behind a car across the road ready to attack me and the pup. Pup situated herself between the dog and me instantly and thank goodness after me yelling the ferals grabbed their bully as it’s half way across the road ready to attack us. Can’t express how protective Fly was and wouldn’t leave my side the rest of the walk and all morning... laying all over me and wouldn’t shift from next to me until I had to leave for work. She heard someone coming down the stairs and instantly stood to attention and growled/barked until she saw it was the eldest coming downstairs for the morning and then slathered him with kisses. Got a nasty gouge out of my knee from the ruckus... but Jeeze just don’t let your dog out and not on a leash ffs!!! Especially if it’s prone to attack or be vicious. The instant of Fly putting herself in between me and the attacking dog made me even more appreciative of her... she’s a real protector and the reason I got her was to make sure I felt safe while doing my morning work outs... so good to know she’s assumed the protective role within our family without actively teaching her so. I watched her attentiveness to all the strangers we passed on the remainder of the walk and I have no doubt she is not a vicious dog but would tear strips if someone tried to grab/hurt me. She’s the goodest of all the doggos ❤️
  11. Read this and it should answer your query pretty quickly (skip to the most recent and read it backwards)
  12. I know you’re not talking to me... but I got my toe nails done today (opened toed shoe event upcoming)... I haven’t ever had this done and it looks so awesome I’m thinking about selling feet pics 🤣🤣🤣
  13. Hahah 🤣🤣🤣 thanks Puff 🥰 fanks keiffffiiiieeee ❤️
  14. WMMFG.... I feel like I’ve come further in the last 18 months in my career than in the last ten years. I officially have not one, but our organisations two largest building projects to manage as well as the others I am running with.... but today I got some cool news... I have been asked to consult as a permanent panel member for a newly formed committee within the organisation which is now responsible for the long term strategy for community major infrastructure needs. A position which I was specifically requested to take on due to my expertise and to which I am the only one in the committee not in an executive or senior leadership position. It’s a pretty big deal for my type of role within my sector and an opportunity which isn’t often forwarded, so feeling very lucky but also proud I’ve been recognised as being valuable in that position. 🥰
  15. Moaning Keifffff.... it is a happy Sunday indeed... Today is 10 years since j@ and I tied the knot! That means it’s ten years since we saw your urbro loving arse too!
  16. Pics!!!! Can see if it rivals what @JETURBO did to his pinkie the other week when I had to play nurse hahah
  17. We have “bring your dog to work” days. There are a bunch of us with black and white Border Collies... it’s becoming a tribe at this point hahaha Flys growing up fast!
  18. This is an obscure post considering the context of this forum... but it’s a win for me so why not... Went to David Jones on a Friday evening and shopped in the fancy parts where people basically lick ya bum and everything is chained to the racks by alarmed collars. I have an event coming up and I wanted a dress and it’s been nearly a decade since I could walk into a designer store or sections and find anything that fits me let alone looks good. Well, everything I tried on I loved, which is so rare, because it fit!!! J@ was lovely at helping me decide and I got two of the dresses and then I made him buy some fashionable clothes (first time he’s worn linen) ... he loved that *yes that’s sarcasm*🤣 Walking into a designer store (which are always sized smaller than standard) and finding something off the shelf that fits (and not even in the large size) was a huge accomplishment for me.... and I have gone down a shoe size as well 🤔. All in all, 2 dresses accounted for well over half of the $2.5k bill, but I decided that it was a treat for the 45kgs I’m now down 🥰
  19. Moaning everyone! #inb4keif love a good anal violation before 8am on a Monday!!!
  20. Afternoon Keif! So the Border Collie is going well. J@ and her are in love and she’s just the most affectionate thing ever.... and at only 4 months old she can certainly jump (our beds nearly 1m high)...
  21. non alcoholic beer... what a waste 🤣🤣
  22. So I had a rockey month with loads of family birthdays, unhealthy eating, holidays .... but balanced it out with good food and exercise wherever possible. Finally jumped past the 40kg lost mark and heading steadily toward the 50kg loss as my next goal (always feels like the last step between goals takes the longest). I think my biggest take away, despite the obvious, is about moderation. Something I’ve never been particularly good at and something I have had to embrace. Through this whole time I haven’t stopped drinking, haven’t stopped eating sugar or carbs, haven’t stopped desert or fatty foods... I just make sure they fit into my daily intake, and if they don’t, I exercise more. With two parents who were morbidly obese their whole lives and kept a household of habits that reflected such, it’s something I’m so proud to say is now just habit for me. So onwards (or downwards) to the next goal! (not that I’m hell bent on the scales at this point to be fair, just happy to settle healthy) 🥰
  23. Been wanting a pair of RMs for ages... guess they’re kind of a staple in the wardrobe department when you’re in the construction management industry... wanker PM boots bahaha.... Also been wanting to get Azza in a pair (coz he looks like a man stud in them and I wanna jump his bones 🤣) Well lucky us we have RMs factory in Adelaide so popped down there and scored a bargain, in the right size as luck would have it!!!.... My pairs: 1. Custom ordered boot with wooden heel and oil resistant sole, custom leather finish and gold tags (someone obviously ordered them and didn’t like them or they didn’t fit)... $950 normal price - purchased for $399 2. Standard RM’s women’s yearling leather boot... $649 normal price - purchased for $499 Azza’s ... gorgeous looking limited edition leather finish boot ... standard price $749... paid $409 ...
  24. Oh that’s awesome Scotty!!! Yeah beautiful part of the world, I haven’t visited since school camp, but as the night comes over it’s even more gorgeous. Just took a walk through the Roos to get to dinner hahah
