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

Omg ladies .... I was chatting to my personal trainer on Friday and she said I would be a good galaxy girl. A galaxy girl is a fitness competition which is linked to modelling. So I'm nowhere near yet but it's over a year away and I think I could do it (not that I would win but could be eligible for entry). It will be intense but I'm going to do it! Eek!

Also going for a 20 mile obstacle race next May! So basically I need to get on it!

Please stick with me ladies and keep me going?

Hope you're all having an amazing bank holiday weekend xxxx
 
That sounds bloody amazing! All of it! So so proud of you little superstar! We are not going anywhere and we're not gonna let you either! So impressed about it all! Galaxy girl sounds so cool! Def googling tomorrow and a 20 mile race! Holy moly! Sounds wow! Tell me more! Xx

Aw Tasha that's lovely :') thank you xxxx

It's called rat race! And miss galaxy universe! Definitely google them xxxx
 
Oh wow - impressive! What a compliment from your trainer. Don't worry - we'll be supporting you.
 
Aw thanks ladies :) that means a lot

I'm a big feminist so when I first heard about it I just wasn't sure. But I've read into it and it is all very about women supporting women and encouraging fitness in the media rather than skinniness - very down my street! It's going to be some very hard work but James and my parents are behind me 100% and you guys too :D.

Our initial aim is to up the fitness as we go through periods of going for it then stopping. Like the last few weeks I've not been 100% in the game. So I weighed in at 10.2 and on it!

We've got some races we are doing in our build up to galaxy and the 20 mile. In September we've got the shine walk - night time walk through London :) it's a marathon but as you walk it I think it's achievable. Then in October we are doing the Major Series which is a 5k muddy obstacle race. Then May is the 20 mile muddy obstacle race. Then June (probably) will be galaxy girls. James is training too for the runs but for galaxy girls he is going to do the same diet in the months before - very protein and fitness based. It's amazing how supportive he is :)

So yesterday we started! I had a gym session in the morning - 1k run followed by a weight session. Then last night after work we ran about 2miles. I found it so tough but enjoyable. Tonight we've got the gym, tomorrow is a rest day, then Friday we are either trying the gym in the morning (never done a pre work workout) or a run afterwards.

Food was on plan yesterday but now I'm back at work today it's going to be harder.

Loads and loads of love xxxx

I also took a photo so I can keep track of my progress

Happy humps already!!
 
Wow Jess!! Just googled that, which category?! So glitzy!! I am a big fan of anything that gives you a focus and that sounds like 2 massive focuses for next year!! Behind you all the way xxxx

Thanks beautiful :) Beach body! Although also going to go in for the fitness tests if I can!
 
You are already looking amazing, Jess! Such a babe! And it sounds like you're totally in the zone and focussed on your goal. Super duper proud of you, beautiful lady xxx
 
Thanks girls

I really don't though - these gym trousers hide my lower belly perfectly ;)

I do have a long way to go but I think I am up for it!

xxxx
 
Food has been good today :) shepherds pie with sweet potato mash for lunch, then pulled pork brown rice and veg.

James didn't fancy the gym tonight so I did day 1 of 30 day shred. Did it full on and I'm aching like mad! Didn't realise it was so intense! Loved it :)

Rest day tomorrow :) xxxx
 
Morning ladies

Friday Eve :)

I had a lovely night last night, it was pretty lazy after the shred so me and James chilled on the sofa watching Australia's biggest loser, followed by videos of rat race dirty weekend (the 20 miler we have signed up for) and galaxy girls. And geez we have some work to do. Just motivated me more though!

Having a rest day today because Meadowhall (big shopping centre) is having ladies night - lots of discounts and goodies!

Eats for today
B: Really didn't fancy my breakfast yesterday of caveman museli; made me gag a bit (no idea why!) so just having a big bowl of fruit today! Satsumas, banana, strawberries and pineapple :)

L: Pulled pork and brown rice

S: Nuts, nakd bar, banana

D: TBC Going to see if any deals are on but I'm fancying either wagamamas yaki soba or nandos butterfly chicken. Going with sis in law who is also slimming so hopefully she shouldn't be too difficult to convince!

Realised last night that we has a free weekend ahead of us so there is going to be healthy eating and lots of exercise - eventually a week on plan!

xxxx
 
Good morning beauties! It's Friday! Yay :D

Had a really good night at meadowhall last night. Bought a bikini from boux avenue reduced from £40 to £32. It's navy with a pretty trim. I felt so good in it though I actually felt slim! Really pleased! :)

I had 2 flutes of fizzy at the shopping event and then we went to nandos for tea: butterfly chicken, spicy rice and corn with a coke zero :)

Eats for today:
Breakfast: Banana, Pineapple, Strawberries
Snacks: Satsuma
Lunch: Shepherds pie with sweet potato mash
Snacks: Nakd bar, Nuts, Satsuma
GYM!
Post gym: Protein shake
Dinner: Steak with sweet potato weeds and veg :) (Edit: haha WEDGES not weeds)

Anyone got lovely weekend plans? xxxx

Quite a chilled one :) xxx
