Post Workout Shower = Bliss
First off, Happy Fourth of July for all you Americans out there :)
Had another up and down couple of days. All went a little wrong on Friday when I watched the football and ended up sinking a bottle of red vino to celebrate Holland's victory. The good thing was this was effectively my dinner, the bad side was because I didn't eat dinner I ended up having drunken late night sandwiches. Though at least I can be kind of thankful that my drunken nibbles crave salad sandwiches rather than curries, burgers, chips and the like - but it's still not ideal!
I also had a semi-lazy day yesterday with not much going on. Can't remember what I ate really, though it was nothing too bad though not a controlled calorie diet.
Today has been much better.
Food:
2 x eggs + 2 x toast
bread crust with peanut butter
One medium banana, 2 handfuls of strawberries with vanilla yoghurt (98cals)
Pecan slice (ok this was naughty but my mum bought it over when she visited!!)
Half a small melon
For dinner I am currently cooking a fish pie (about 340 cals) to have with some mixed veg (broccoli, carrots and baby sweetcorn)
Exercise wise I did 1hr 20 on the Wii. 1 hr in one session which included boxing, jogging and my yoga/muscle routine and then about an hour or so later a further 20 mins of light cardio to warm up a bit more before doing to 30DS.
The 30 Day Shred is definitely becoming a little easier. I'm comfortable with what I'm doing, have my space set up and my body is objecting as much! I'm able to put a bit more work into the crunches and have mannaged to more or less figure out how to go about the bicycle crunches, though I lack co-ordination but probably always will as it's not one of my strong points! It was the third time I've done it today.
Weight wise I did see the 252's on Friday I think it was, though I've ballooned a little with the water retention from the alcohol and such so was sitting back at 255 this morning, though the Wii told me I'd lost 1lb since Weds and those were taken at similar times of day. Should be a bit more accurate tomorrow morning.
