Hmm two classes at the gym in a row...
Today was a nice lazy day. For the first time in a while, I got to sleep in for AGES. I slept in until 12pm when both the heat and my body made me decide it was about damn time I got up.
After eating some Chinese takeaway and crackers with some yummy pickled vegetable spread from a local farmer's market, I decided to check out the opening hours of the Epping Fitness First as I am staying at my parents' place for a week or two over Christmas.
I ended up going to not just one, but two classes in a row tonight. I went to BodyPump followed by RPM. I'm glad I went to RPM because it will have got rid of some of the lactic acid that I would have generated from lifting weights at BodyPump. My legs were shaking at the end of BodyPump so I wasn't sure if I was pushing myself too much to do two classes. I just made sure that I didn't push myself as hard as I normally would have and treated the session as a recovery session rather than a workout. I am pretty darn proud of myself for being able to do two sessions in a row and not die!
For dinner, I had a protein shake followed by some rice with stir fried chicken and vegies that Dad had cooked. I stuffed myself but I didn't care too much. The two classes that I'd done meant that I didn't have to worry too much. I also got a text from an acquaintance who happens to be in Melbourne...I will have to see how much they want to catch up.
I'm currently around 74 kgs. I'm 6 kg lighter than about 4 months ago so I'm damned happy about that. Also, I'm starting to notice that my waist is becoming more defined again which is awesome.
Tomorrow, I'm going to the gym again before I have my hair done and then a remedial massage session. It'll be good to do some more exercise now that I'm holidays for these couple weeks. Apart from the fact that I don't want to put on weight due to Christmas food, I also want to try and lose another kilogram. Once I got back to work, I'll lose time again because I'll start French again as well as start looking for tutoring opportunities. After my massage, I'll hang out with my housemate and catchup.
Oh yeah, one of my good friends got engaged too! How awesome! I am excited to be going to the first engagement party of my friend network!
I'm looking forward to a relaxing day tomorrow.
