DAY 10 Blog

DAILY UPDATE:
The day started out a bit average when my brand new computer monitor decided not to work, although finished up ok without throwing my computer out the window.

MOOD:
Was a bit frustrated as I'd planned a big day of catching up only to discover my monitor wouldn't work! I have another 3 laptops I could have used although already downloaded my emails and couldn't access them, so just a tad annoyed. It actually reminded me how much I turn to food when I'm stressed out. The first thing I thought was I need something to eat although I'd just had breakie so really wasn't hungry! It all turned out ok and as I couldn't do any work just yet (it was 7am and computer shop wasn't open) I decided to hit the gym instead and it was such a stress relief, way better than pigging out.

FOOD: Ok, not as good as I would have liked. Just started adding in some bigger portions again, would prepare my dinner and have some extra chicken or let some extra almonds slip in. Haven't gone off track but if I continued on how I went yesterday i would end up not making much progress, or very slow progress. I did find my appetite was huge due to the combination of stress and 3 really hard training sessions. Anyway made it through without any treats!

TRAINING:
WEIGHTS: Great, still managing to increase weights which is suprising me although think I might be stuck with the same weight next week and focus a bit more on good form.

INTERVAL: Did this on the treadmill, 10 minute warmup (2 mins walking, 8 mins jogging)Intervals of 50 second sprint, speed 15 and 30 second recovery. Cool down 10 minutes, jog/walk. Felt hard although think I could have gone a bit faster but the treadmill I was on, only went to 15 which I thought was strange as I'm sure they should go up to 20.

RPM express: This was a great class although I counted and felt every minute as my legs were a bit sore from the interval session. Don't think I'll do two hard sessions in one day again.

WATER: Lots.

DRINKS: NONE

TREATS: NONE.

Just glad to make it through the day. Also realised how quickly 10 days goes and that you can feel so much better after such a short space of time. Although I still want things to happen quickly and have to remind myself I'm not going to change everything in just 10 days!!!!!

Have a great day everyone, I'm off to get some serious work done today as my office is a nighmare!

Cheers, Hilds
