JessyG's food diary - positive and determined to shift the bulge

[JessyG24]

Morning lovelies

I'm running late to work - this has happened a few times recently and I'm annoyed at myself. At least it's only going to be five mins.

Aching nicely from my workout and got bootcamp tonight but then rest day tomorrow think that is going to be my only rest day as on Sat I'm gymming and Sunday I think we're taking our nephew swimming as he is staying over Saturday night

Last night Dianne did some chocolate pud and custard for dessert and I had a good bit. Then we got home and opened a beer.... I had a few sips and decided it wasn't worth it and so didn't drink it - bit of a waste but a NSV all the same

Eats for today:
B: protein shake and banana
L: leftover Dianne's chicken casserole
S: peanut butter and banana, orange

There will also be a decaf coffee on the menu as meeting my friend at lunch for coffee

D: Tbc (because of boiler issues we still haven't stocked fridge up)

Happy Thursday! xxxx

Morning gorgeous,
Sounds like you're still on the fitness train - I need to up mine as I don't think 2 days in 2 weeks is doing anything for me.
Ooohh tea sounded lush and sounds like you enjoyed it.

Happy Thursday

On the fitness express train this week - definitely working harder than usual! I think you need at least three times a week hun to see any real changes and improvements, two at a very minimum

Loves you xxxx

Hopefully once the spare room is finished this weekend, I can re-start on the exercise bike at home and do some interval training there, then I might try and fit at least 1 gym session in on the weeks I'm on late or possibly on a Saturday.

Loves you too gorgeous

Yeah I love it until it lasts too long lol

Yeah gave it up for whole30 had one coffee after which gave me awful stomach ache and so I've cut it out - Now I've discovered decaff I genuinely don't miss it.

I've no idea what to cook yet - something that will also do us lunch xxxx.

[JessyG24]

My arms ACHE so I've text PT asking her what's in store for bootcamp.... Core! So relieved but yet I know tomorrow my ENTIRE body will hurt haha xxxx

 

[Poppet12]

Your exercising is amazing!
I have to admit part of me quite likes the burn too; though its not often I've done enough to burn!
I quite fancy one of these 30 day programmes (I hear the shred is good for beginners ish?) But struggle with space at home. I think C25K would be good too as a way of getting into running- when it stay lighter later perhaps?- I can get a bit anxious out on my own which is ridiculous!
Anyway big well done and keep it up, you might guilt me into shifting my butt xx

The shred is good and the C25k I would definitely recommend! No I totally get about running on my own, I run with James and my gym friends which helps

Haha I'll keep it up xxxx

Morning girlies! Yay it's Friday!

Bootcamp was good last night although it was hard after a full week of gymming and I found it tough. Won the plank challenge again with over two and a half minutes but failed the squat timed challenge (it burns!). Aching like mad tonight and I'll be honest I'm pretty tired.

Dinner last night was a prawn and red pesto pasta dish - something quick and after all the exercise I thought my body needed carbs stat.

Feeling a bit :/ today. I'm tired, James is tired and so we aren't that pally. Getting irritated by eachother too quickly. Also can't decide what to do tonight as he is out with the lads at a beer fest and he says I'm welcome but initially I wasn't going but due to a cancelled night out I now could. But should I? I genuinely knew he wouldn't mind me there but I dont want us to bicker. However if I don't go I Wont see him tomorrow as he's working, tomorrow night our nephew is staying so they'll be on Xbox all night, then by the time we've done food shop etc on Sunday it will pretty much be prepare for Monday again. Advice?

Eats for today are a bit unorganised again because we haven't done a big food shop yet:
B: gluten free porridge pot with maple syrup (omg I usually hate porridge but this was lush) and a banana
L: Salad and eggs
S: nakd bar
D: depends what I do tonight

Hey gorgeous,

I think a lot of us are the same when we're tired. I know Dave and I always bicker when one/both of us have had a mad week of it!

You've done so well this week darling- you've worked your little socks off at the gym and bootcamp. You're amazing! No surprise at all that you're tired.

Hmm...not sure what I would do. I think if you went out, you would probably have a fab time and not fight because you'll have let your hair down after a long week. But on the other hand, if you're feeling shattered, a chilled pamper night in might do you good?
