Day 9 - What a day!

I got up this morning with no motivation to go to the gym. I knew it was a cardio day and all I wanted to do was eat, not exercise! I dragged my old bones to the gym around 8.20am. I walked in and was greeted warmly by Larry. The music was pumping in the gym and I instantly felt energised for my workout! I ran 30 mins on the treadmill and although I didn't run as far as last time (only ran about 4.6km as I didn't increase my speed much at the beginning) by the end I got to level 13 in my speed. I think the machine only goes up to 16. Wanna get to that speed soon!

Left the gym feeling good and sweaty, then went home and got ready to go hang with my sister. She was still having contractions but they were around 20 mins apart. The poor thing was so exhausted and we just sat next to each other quietly on the couch. Some workmen were there installing some new windows and a back door. My sis patiently grimaced through each contraction as the drills whirred and hammers clang. She's such a trooper.

The workmen left around 5ish and then at 6.10pm it happened. Her waters broke! At last! After a couple of stunned moments, I ran to get some towels to shove under her. Luckily I caught the flow in time and there was no big mess like in the movies! I rang her partner and my sis called the hospital and then said to come in. She jumped in the shower, my brother-in-law came home and off they trotted to the hospital.

So its now 8.20pm. I hope it is all going smoothly and that we get a call soon! She has put up with so much pain and exhaustion in the last few weeks, so I hope the labour is swift for her! Love you my big sis ox

On a much more boring note, I still managed to eat boring food today:

Meal 1 - glass of lemon water
muesli with skinny milk

Meal 2 - glass of water
an apple and a handful of nuts

Meal 3 - glass of water
tuna salad with can of tuna in springwater, low fat mayo, diced tomato, cucumber and small can of mixed beans

Meal 4 - glass of water
protein shake

Meal 5 - glass of water
small grilled eye fillet steak (120g) with steamed broccolini

Meal 6 - glass of water
yoghurt

Tomorrow I'm gonna try to make it to a 6.15am boxing class...I think I have had a lobotomy...I am no longer sane...is it possible to be too healthy???
