The Rollercoaster

Well what have I been up to since I posted last? Lots of stuff! As with comp prep the roller coaster of ups and downs has started! G had the weekend off which was great as we had lots of time together. On Saturday we headed to the gym for a back workout. Well this was my first drop. I actually didn’t like him very much and wondered why the hell I’d agreed to let him train me. By the time we finished our first exercise (wide grip pull ups) I was nearly crying! I wanted to throw the towel in – how dare he push me out of my comfort zone. I can do close grip pull-ups unassisted why do I have to do wide grip?!!! Of course I was sooking but he “made” me do it and I was feeling fatigued after 4 sets. Then we trot over the lat pull down and he ups me for my form and drops my weights back to a “woosy” weight. Girls wanna look like hero’s too you know! So I copped a flogging and sulked through this and cable rows, finished with back extensions. How dare he make me double the weight plate that I hold when I do this exercise! I threw it on my last rep : ) What a rebel. I glared at him and thought how mean he was and then fell into the car exhausted. Thanks Honey, I Love You. XX Ok, the roller coaster is climbing out of the drop now : )

Sunday was a great day. I jumped out of bed early and got my cardio out of the way, we sat on the deck eating our breakfast “Ah the Serenity”, and then we lolled around the pool. I finished my Fattitude book and did a couple of chores around the house and we went for a date to the movies. I just loooove the cinema. I also love walking in and taking a big breath of that popcorn aroma. I don’t eat it anymore but boy it smells good : ) We saw the movie The Holiday with Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law and Jack Black.

Weeeelllll – I never thought I’d want to do this, but I want to get my locks cut off! Camerons hair looked great. So after this comp I am going to get the chop chop. How easy will it be to do my hair?! It gets so damn hot drying and straightening my hair.

Monday back to work. I had the pleasure of meeting up with Liz in Mooloolaba. We chatted for ages and I was disgusted to have to return to work. We are getting together Friday afternoon for a leg workout. She’s going to ensure I have a plyo workout that kicks this lard from here to kingdom come! Then more work blah blah so boring. Wednesday morning I did a run with stair repeats. Here comes the next low – I was completely F’d afterwards. I even had to WALK home, couldn’t muster a jog. My blood sugar obviously crashed and I was shaky and dizzy, oh dear. So I think I will eat a small carb portion prior to this workout in future as it is extremely taxing. I came home and had to sit in the shower, once I’d eaten I was fine, jumping around as usual.

I am having a lot of trouble weening myself off my skinny cappuccino’s. Dooms day is coming, I am going to have to go cold turkey. God help me. I’ll have to make a pot of green tea as soon as I get to work. I’ve also decided that as of 12 weeks there will be NO FREE MEALS. So it will be all out. I’ve been very busy training, cooking working the day job and my Ideal Bodies Online work. I am scheduled to start college again on 30th January so will lose 2 nights a week again.

So that’s my update, check ya later!
