What's your tune?

Ali over at http://259days.blogspot.com/ is within 2 kilos of getting a new ipod!! Go Ali you can do it!

I went to my weigh in tonight & like I expected it wasn't pretty. Over the last 2 weeks since my birthday I have gained 1.2 kilos taking me back up to 86.5. A little dissapointing but I did let myself do it. It was an awesome meeting & the topic this week was about finding the balance between extremes. I'm trying to find that balance this week & I am going back to basics.
Was I an absolute angel today? No. Before weigh in I had the mentality of well what's done is done & I may as well continue to eat these Jaffas... have I mentioned that i'm not even that into Jaffas? At dinner I could have stopped about 1/2 a slice of chicken & vegetable meatloaf earlier but I decided it was too yummy so I overindulged a bit there too, so no, I was not an angel but that is part of getting back to the right balance.

I am also going back to exercise. I absolutely can't wait for my Zumba dvd's to turn up but while i'm waiting I have other dvd's an exercise bike & a perfectly good pair of legs. Remember my c25k ap that I downloaded for my iphone? well, that hasn't been going so well, but when I was younger & used to use the exercise bike I loved putting music on & just pedalling away. So today I used my c25k ap (which plays music at the same time) & pedalled my little heart out, when it was time to run I increased the intensity on the bike, wen it was time to walk, I changed it back to the lowest setting. Usually it takes me about 45 minutes to do 10km, tonight I did 31 minutes, 11 km & burnt 400 calories.

Which brings me to the reason for this posts title... What's your tune? What music gets your blood pumping & makes you feel invincible? For me it's mid to late 90's, i'm talking Matchbox 20, Foo Fighters, No Doubt, Garbage, Blink 182, Third eye blind... I could keep going. All i'm saying is use it because tonight it helped me sooo much & I feel awesome, what's more, I felt awesome whilst exercising & that is not the norm for me.

So feel free to leave a coment & let me know what tunes you love & if you get a chance pop over to Ali's page http://259days.blogspot.com/ & give her some extra support, only 2 kilos & she gets her ipod which means some awesome awesome tunes!!
