So Day 2 has gone fairly smoothly apart from the fatigue and headaches from no caffeine. I probably could drink coffee, however only black so I'm avoiding it till I'm desperate.
Today was my first couch day since I left my job, so it's been a weird day, full of DVDs, cancelling credit cards and eating. Eating lots again. But today, I have actually felt hungry in the 5 or 10 mins before I'm due to eat. And totally content bellywise until then...although when any one drinks wine or eats cake in these TV shows I'm watching, I'm already jealous! It's gonna be a long 8 weeks.
Here's today's menu, pretty similar to yesterday:
Meal 1 - glass of water with lemon
small bowl muesli with milk
Meal 2 - a small apple and handful of nuts
glass of water
Meal 3 - a small wholemeal pita with 100g steak, sliced tomato and rocket and a dash of low-fat mayo
glass of water
Meal 4 - rice crackers and cheese
glass of water
Meal 5 - 100g grilled chicken breast with steamed asparagus and celery pieces with hummus
glass of water
Meal 6 - low fat yoghurt and strawberries
glass of water
Went to the gym at 8.20am this morning...just couldn't bring myself to do a 7am start. Tomorrow will most likely be an early one as I'm taking my pregnant sis for her last checkup before her babies are due...yep you heard right, plural - babies...only 2 though, she's not the next Octomum.
As I was running on the treadmill, the gym instructor running this godforsaken challenge (let's call him Larry) came up to me and offered me extra help which is good. I will be submitting my training plan to him once a week for review. So at least Larry will keep me on the right track. And tomorrow, they are doing me a new program, so I can alternate my workouts between upper and lower body instead of doing it all on one day. Hurrah!
I feel really lazy today though...walking to the letter box has been my big outing (apart from the gym but that doesn't count anymore). I have a meditation class tonight, so I'm trying to work up the motivation to go...
Oh well, won't bore you any longer. This blog will get more interesting at some point...right?
