Days 19-26

Coming to the end of this workout program (runs for 4 weeks) and feeling pretty chuffed with myself. I’m a third of the way through and I feel great. There have definitely been times when I’ve struggled to stay on the straight and narrow, when I’ve felt like a good old pigging session but I’ve managed to keep going. It’s been a month now and I haven’t touched a single drop of diet coke or an alcoholic drink (ashamed to say I probably miss the diet coke more than the ale! Party animal hey!!!). I’m really pleased that I’ve managed to live my life without my beloved diet coke and I’m sure my teeth are forever grateful. 

Loves Diet Coke

Feasting
I’ve enjoyed most of the foods on my new menu, apart from the cottage cheese. Initially I thought it was ok but I’ve decided that no it was as I originally thought, tastes yakki and looks like spew.
Hubby’s abandoned me this week, gone off on business and left me to potty train the duck but I’ve forgiven him seeing that he left me with a yummy toffee cheesecake and home made coco truffles as he likes to call them. (coconut oil and cocoa, Delish!) 

Terrible photography does not do them justice!

Torture time
I have felt really strong this week and I have flown through my workouts, been in and out within 30 mins every session. I have definitely gained strength throughout this last four weeks and the auld pot belly is melting away! I’ve worked my (proverbial) balls off on the treadmill and rowed till I could row no more (my arse kills!)

So, moving forward I’ve got an interval session tomorrow, workout day 3 Friday and one final interval session Saturday then this first training portion is complete. Next Monday morning will begin my new four week program (as per the book). I’m ready for something new. (I think!)
I plan to do a weigh in on Sunday and add the beautiful before pics (don’t think Gisele will worry too much ha ha) and of course present day photos. My hubby assures me we will have the long awaited photos this weekend. I know I’ve said this before but I have faith………..
