Day 7, Week 2

Phew! Well here it is. The final day of week 2!

I must admit, this week has been a tough slog, especially the past couple of days what with the heat and feeling a little less than 100%.Motivation has been wavering and it is a little bit of a worry.

As I said in yesterdays post, I am certainly not eating enough food considering my general lifestyle, which is about to go up a gear with the kids returning to school tomorrow, and the exercise that I am doing. On top of that and the sudden heat,I think that my period is due and I haven't had an anti-depressant tablet in around 4 days...NAUGHTY ME!!!!!

I will endeavor to sort myself out next week, remembering that eating too little is always a temporary solution. You'd think that after going on this same trip over and over again, I'd have learned the right directions by now! Old habits ( bad ones at that ) obviously die hard!

Food wise today was a bit of a mish mash and I felt really unorganized which was annoying.

Lunch was a tuna curry salad with chilli's. I snacked on a few rice crackers and had a chicken and spinach 'Lean Cuisine' risotto for dinner. I picked at a few small pieces of steak and cheese from Adrian's steak sandwich too.

Exercise. Well, I certainly made up for yesterdays minimal effort tonight.
All motivated afterwatching the first episode of 'The Biggest Loser' for the year, I managed, for the first time since beginning training again, a 20 minute straight run! YAY!!!!

So the programme was 5 minutes @ 6kph holding 3kg weights. 20 minutes @ 7.5kph. 10 minutes @ 6kph holding 3kg weights. 5 minutes @ 7.5kph then a 5 minute cool down @ 5kph with 3kg weights whilst doing 3 sets of 15 reps bicep curls and 2 sets 15 reps of shoulder presses.
Exhausting but rewarding.

I don't have a food or exercise photo to share today but I do have one that my little girl took for me in a make shift photo shoot that we had a play with today. A bit of Mummy,Daughter bonding which was lovely.

Well, I'm off to watch my fave TV show that has finally returned to the screen, hopefully get a good sleep and hope and pray that tomorrows results are kind!
