Not been around, been a bit busy lately.
I do have some news, I passed my first grade of driving today with the specials so can now drive the vehicles. It was a pretty intense morning and i'm going back to bed in a bit as I have work tonight. I had my new mattress delivered yesterday, silent night memory foam one and so I had to sleep in the spare room last night so looking forward to tonights afternoon snooze!!

Thanks
Yesterday was a long day and I ended up picking at 2 slices of ham as i felt hungry and today I added 2slices to my meal as my turkey steak was tiny.
Weigh in in the afternoon when I get up :fingerscrossed:

Weigh in today and i've lost 4.25lbs and 3inches, 2of which from my waist
Happy with that after 12days.
I'm now back into the 11st bracket too!! (11st 13.75lbs) and so leaves me 3.75lbs to first goal of 11st 10lbs then its on to getting into the 10st bracket ... so in total I have 1st to lose in 12weeks, its definitley achievable.
Hopefully over the next two weeks I can get another 4.25lbs off which would be ideal.
Off out tonight so having some carbs with my meal.

Saturday was a lush night out really enjoyed myself. I did pick at about 6/7 haribo sweets at my friends and did indulge in a couple of baileys shots :S
Sunday I was a right mess, and not in a hungover way either. More of a flu way. I dredged into town with my friend and every step was an effort. Today I don't feel much better but dosing up on paracetemol seems to be helping. Sundays food wasnt good - I just couldnt really stomach anything except juicy stuff! lol
Sun 1st July
*apple juice
*mango fruit cooler from costa
*mango, pineapple & mandarin segments
*2ham slices & dairylea triangle
*handful salted peanuts
*protein bar (my only product of the day - not good!)
Mon 2nd July
turkey mince, carton chopped toms, red kidney beans
shake
shake
garlic stuffed olives & slice of turkey
protein bar
Got to weigh in again tomorrow. Probably isnt going to be good but hey ho.

Still full of gunk.
Run today wasnt much fun cuz of it, its hard to breathe through my nose so that made it tough and I felt really lethargic.
But run was:
1hr
5.25miles
11:26avg pace
714cals burnt

Not particularly. But that's probably cuz I'm not feeling 100%. Atleast my body has had a break which is always good for it especially as I had been training for a fair few months X

Would quite happily have you as a gym buddy Sarah
Just a quick update really, been really busy this past week.
Grandma had a minor heart attack on monday. Gave us all a massive scare. Basically she has been feeling short of breathe for a while now, was on the waiting list to have tests about it but monday evening started raking the grass and then felt pain, managed to somehow get herself upstairs on the bed and phone my mum. Her and dad went up there, phoned an ambulance who rushed her straight to a&e and straight into theatre to have a stent fitted to her left artery which had collapsed. She's now on strict instructions to slow down and rest. She cant drive or do anything for 4weeks but has been given the all clear to go on holiday at the end of the month. She came home from hospital yesterday evening and is doing ok
Going ok ish on the diet front. Beginning to pick more so I think today is going to be my last day of the shakes. That'll be 25days done and so final weigh in tomorrow. I have a summerball to go to tomorrow aswell which is a 3 course meal and obvs, plenty of alcohol! Will come and update weigh in tomorrow.
Still been keeping up with the phys. Did a 1hr 12min run on wednesday and today a 3mi run and 1hr body pump.
Pump was insanely hard today. I'm really beginning to feel the effects of squatting 20kg and this release has jump squats which are an absolute thigh burner!!!!
Will be back to updating daily when back to counting calories properly. Probably sunday or monday.
