ALL ON TRACK

"Over the next day I'm like the Michelin Man"

It has been a journey of baby steps towards my goal to lose fat aka lean down aka getting cut. During my check up with Di, I was pleasantly surprised to see centimetres come off everywhere. And my delts and back are looking damn fine! I'm not happy about losing centimetres from my boobs! Please tell me ... why am I doing this? Ha, ha, no drama ... the result was very pleasing.

At this point Di recommends I take a free meal. What? A free meal? Whooo hooo! I'm excited.

Perry and I head out to Coolum for a meal. I think it's been months since we've both dined on the same foods. What did I order? A fettucine with red onions and panchetta. Mmm, scrumptus and very spicy (I would later regret the spice). For dessert a bowl of ice cream. No alcohol. That's ok, I haven't drunk since my New Zealand holiday. I don't miss it. We had a fabulous night.

We get home when I begin to feel queezy. I'm now on the sofa and I lie it out for 10 minutes. The queeze stops and now I'm cold. So cold, I shove my cat from the heater and huddle over the heat, almost sitting on top of it. God, give me strength. I'm so tired now, I head off to bed.

Me think the pasta was a tad too spicy. I think for my next free meal I'll have eggs on toast.

Awesome, awesome session with Matt on Tuesday (bis/tris and shoulders). The reps are faster and the rests are shorter. Great cardio. DOMS good, not severe like other times. Over the next day I'm like the Michelin Man! I believe my shoulders and arms deflated last night. Good one Matt!

I love your self talk Mariana - it is really positive! I do the sultana thing too - dangerous to eat sultanas out of the box. But think of it this way - at least it was only sultanas and not malteasers!
