Now last night I was a tad naughty but not in a truly terrible way... I had a piece of gammon, that was it, just gammon, not a bit piece either, it was left over from the meal mum cooked and I couldn't resist, it is at least protein.. albeit a bit salty.. she had cooked it in healthy way though... anyway I justified it to myself as you can see!
Today I have just been to the gym.. and this time when I say the gym... I actually mean the gym rather than sat in KFC car park stuffing my face!!! I am trying to get back into the good habits I had when I joined the gym in December... the times when going to the gym meant exercising and not sneaking food.... anyway I have done a 2 1/2 mile run/walk as I really want to get back into my running, half the reason I put on weight (the other half being over-eating obviously!), is that I stop running... when I am feeling good and thin, I run and then alcohol and food take over in importance, including the inevitable hangovers and required fry ups and therefore the runs get put to one side and then I find myself weeks down the line a non-runner... so anyway I did run/walk - 1 minute run at 6mph pace, then 2 min walk at 3.5mph pace, repeated 10 times
Of course when I did this mini marathon (as I like to think of it), I hadn't consumed any shakes and I got back from the gym feeling a tad light-headed! Just had a CD Porridge and feel okay now.. after the run I did a mile on the exercise bike too.. think I will miss that bit out until I have been on the diet for another week or so, when my energy levels rise!
No dog walking today (hence the eager trip to the gym) as my dog has a poorly shoulder, and I have been walking her on the lead only for the last two weeks, combined with the tablets the vet gave me, but since she can't walk calmly to save her life I think a day or two of complete rest may help considerably.. of course she isn't too good at resting completely either, and is currently tearing around the lounge with her teddy in her gob!
Anyway I have digressed, weighed myself first thing today and I still 15st 11... so no loss since yesterday but then I did have that piece of gammon!
