Day 38 - Carnival Fun

Hey guys!

Hope you are all having a great weekend. Yesterday we spent our day at my cousins 7th birthday party, and then at a local town's carnival, which turned out to be a really good night!

We went to my partners favourite pub where they have a live band playing, who were amazing! So good we are even contemplating booking them for our wedding :) Do you get moments like that, when things just take you by surprise when you least expect it? We have both said we need to book a band or DJ in the next few weeks, and have been looking at local bands but nothing has really blown us away yet. Except for this band! They played songs that we love, had a great atmosphere and looked like they were loving every second of it! Here is a link the the lead singers YouTube page... check him out! He is only 16, and is so talented! http://www.youtube.com/user/zoomrightin

Food Diary -
Breakfast - i'm sure I don't need to even say anymore! Special K with semi-skimmed milk
Dinner - Buffet dinner at the birthday party. Salad and pasta dishes, sandwiches and cheese and pineapple on sticks. The best buffet food!

This weekend I purchased a Shake Weight. Have any of you used one before? I have cancelled my gym membership and aim to get toned and slim without the aid of an expensive membership fee! If any of you haven't heard of a 'shake weight', has a female and male version, the female version weighs 2.5 lbs. The Shake Weight increases upper body muscle activity by more than 300% compared to traditional free weights. The company website further adds that the product has "scientifically proven results" and that the user can "get incredible results in just six minutes a day, sixty-five days a year".

The product appears to be based on "vibration plate technology—machines that vibrate to make the muscles relax and contract several times a second—thought to enhance the impact of exercise".
The company claims this action tones the upper biceps, triceps and shoulders, so I am hoping to achieve a toned upper body in time for the nuptials!

I will let you know how I get on!
