Day 6 - Feeling lethargic

Sorry I'm a bit late blogging Day 6 of the challenge but last night was a bit busy!

Day 6 saw me feeling quite lethargic. I got to the gym after 8 and did some cardio. Instead of running, I walked fast on the treadmill set to the hill program with steep inclines. I found that this was actually a good workout and I was very sweaty by the end! The more I sweat, the harder I feel I have worked, so of course Summer is a great time to exercise cos after 5 mins, I feel really fit ;)

Larry had put up these pictures of all the contestants in the Six Pack Challenge. I am second from the top. This photo is not the greatest but by the looks of things, it is mostly guys in the comp. I felt a bit weird taking photos of the noticeboard, like some weird flabby belly pervert...

The rest of the day was quite a cruisy one. I cleaned my house and watched alot of DVDs. Then at 6.30pm, I went to a friend's house for dinner. This was my free meal of the week! I was so excited to eat some different, flavoursome food for a change. The food was delicious and the wine I bought was excellent as well. Totally awesome meal!

Food:

Meal 1 - glass of lemon water

muesli with skinny milk

Meal 2 - glass of water

apple with handful of nuts

Meal 3 - glass of water
2 slices of multigrain toast (no butter or marg), one topped with a poached egg and the other with some cottage cheese, and rocket on top

Meal 4 - glass of water

protein shake with blueberries

Meal 5 - DINNER!! WOO HOO!!

2-3 glasses of red wine

spoonful of: mushroom risotto, stirfried bok choy and prawns, leafy green salad with chilli vineagarette and a salmon pattie topped with lime mayonnaise - yum!

Meal 6 - glass of water

So after dinner I called my sister and found out she was IN LABOUR! Finally! I was so excited I hardly slept a wink all night. As I write she is still in labour (around 12 hours later), so hopefully we will hear soon! The suspense is killing me! Can't wait to meet my precious little darling nieces!
