Tired, Tired, Tired

Yep in a nutshell that is me.  I think it is the weather, and the fact the gym doesn't cope well in the warm weather and its so hot in there, even though they have the air-con on its not exactly cold when you walk in.  Eating has been good except for last night, being Australia Day we went over the mum and dad's to take the kids for a swim and i ended up having a small porting of cannelloni with salad and 4 drinks!!! oh and an ice-cream.  Don't know what came over me but this will be my cheat meal for the week.  I think it was a bit more than a cheat meal but I can't take it back.

I am starting to struggle food wise, I think its because I am not making my food very interesting and it lacks flavour, but with a baby and a young toddler I really don't have time to spend cooking on myself and at the moment I am cooking for me and something different for hubby and son.  By the time the end of the day comes around I do need an hour or so just to myself without running around doing chores.  As it is most nights I am in bed by 9.00pm just so I get enough sleep to take me through the next day.

Training is going really well and I have noticed my body has come along way in 4 weeks.  I can fit back into my size 8 shorts.  They are certainly not loose on me but they fit.  I just got to keep focussed for another few weeks.

AAARRGGGH I had chocolate

Oh my god I was like a woman possessed.  I was going to kill someone if I didn't have chocolate.  Now I have no idea what came over me.  The only thing I can think of was I have been 100% for 3 weeks now.  No cheating, no craving nothing.  Yesterday I just gagged on all my food.  I didn't want it, and I didn't like it.  Anyhow I had chocolate.  I feel guilty and I hope it hasn't affected my weight loss too bad.  I feel bad this morning as it has made me wake up with a headache, toilet issues and I just feel blah.  That will teach me.  Anyhow the good thing is I am looking forward to getting on the bandwagon this morning.  At least the positive thing I can find is it was just one meal I slipped up on the rest were good.  I am human, I am very tired and I am training my guts out plus looking after a baby and a toddler under 2 so I have to realise this and give myself some slack.  Once I have achieved my goal I certainly won't be killing myself like I am now and will come to a happy medium with eating and exercise, after all I do want to be able to have a wine when I want it.

Going well

I can't believe how well I am going.  Sticking to all nutrition and workouts.  I must admit though I am working damn hard I better see the results for all this training as it is wearing me down.

Sticking to it

Well it has just about been a week now and have stuck to training and diet 100% and the good news is I am not finding it difficult.  I weighed myself on Monday and it showed scale weight I had lost a kilo.  At that stage I had been on diet since Thursday so not bad for 4 days.  I am trying not to weight myself too much but I can't resist the temptation to see how I am going.  I have noticed the difference already in my body when I look in the mirror but after all most of it is pregnancy weight so things like my tummy should go back quite quickly with the right diet and training.  At least with clothes on I look ok.

Not much else to say really other than that just looking after my toddler and baby which takes up most of my time as well as doing things around the house.

Going great guns

What can I say?  Things are going really well.  Still feel a bit empty from the diet but been 100%.  The only thing I have struggled with is my ab workouts as I only had bub 9 weeks ago my abs have still not come together and I have no strength there so my form is non existent.  After an hour of ab work my whole body was hurting not my abs so it is going to take alot of work to get this right.

Enjoying my workouts enjoying eating right and am sleeping much better.  It is day 4 today and I got my period yesterday so I am surprised I have had no cravings.  I have noticed my patience is a little worse for wear today but overall I am ok!!

Feeling Great

Yesterday was first day of my diet and although I felt "light" headed most of the day I didn't feel hungry and no cravings.  I did pee though way to much.  I need to drink 3 litres a day and boy did I pee.  I did 45 mins on cross trainer at home as gym was closed whilst my 2 babies were sleeping.

Today I got my program and went to the gym and had a brilliant workout.  When you put you mind to things its amazing the change you feel.  As I left the gym owners even said to me that I looked like I had a good workout and I did.  Diet on track again today.  We went to the shops this morning and hubby had a chicken, mushroom and cheese crepe which I love but I didn't even look twice at it.  I am really determined!!
