Morning lovelies
Last night was gym night and I did the following: ran 3k (21 mins) I hate treadmill running :/, did my 105 squats for my squat challenge, then 3 sets of: 10 deadlift (20kg) - 10 press-ups - 10 Tricep extension (8kg, 6kg for last set) - 1 minute plank. Maybe not as much as sometimes but I focused on form and was really pushing my body last night. Got bootcamp tonight so looking forward to that - I need to not get in a fettle but just push as hard as I can at all times; it is supposed go be hard after all.
You know the fitness competition I'm doing in November? Well my trainer wants to do a progression photo shoot at the end of March. We will be doing it with her best friend too who she trained into a fab physique but now wants babies so wants a photo to show herself before she gets a bump! I'm up for it but I am nervous as although it is a gym shoot there will be some stomach on show so i need to work hard - extra motivation though.
Eats for today:
B - sweet potato hash with a sliced boiled egg
L - pulled pork with cauliflower rice, walnuts
Pre-gym - almond butter and banana
Post-gym - tuna
D - slow cooker Moroccan chicken (chicken thighs, chopped tomatoes, lemon juice, almond butter, garlic, ginger, salt, pepper, cinnamon, sage, paprika, cumin, onion, peppers) smells yum!
Happy Thursday ladies - it's nearly the weekend! xxxx

I've no idea TBH. I might treat myself to some new kit. Something that is very flattering I think! Haha
We had so much leftover considering James and I eat massive portions xxxx

Jess I can't even handle how good your food sounds! That Moroccan chicken! Eh yum! Tell me more please! I want to make it! You do slow cooked beef sometimes right? How do you do it? I bought a joint but have never actually cooked one!
So exciting about the photo shoot! You are one brave cookie! You'll look absolutely amazing though! xx

Right I think you've convinced me to go Paleo at some point in the near future, it all sounds so good and I've seen some amazing recipes around.
Love the idea of the photoshoot, makes me wish I'd taken more 'before' pictures. And definitely treat yourself to some new kit for it.

Wow Jess thats so exciting! And defo motivation!
Fettle...I love that word! You're right though...get the form right and the rest will improve naturally over time....there's no point pushing your body in the wrong way!
Have you noticed any difference as a result of the squat challenge? 105 sounds like so many!! xxx

It is: 1 can chopped toms, 1/3 cup of nut butter, juice of small lemon, 2 chopped peppers, 2 sliced small onions, 3 cloves diced garlic, a bit of fresh ginger, sweet paprika (I used smoked), cumin, salt, pepper, cinnamon sticks (I used powder) and chicken thighs (I used 600g) 2 cups of water. You can brown meat first but I just put all mine into the slow cooker. Cook for minimum 6 hours on low
Seriously nervous about the shoot XxxX
