And we kick off the start of Week 3 with me in the sodding bikini. I really didn’t want to do it today but being accountable on here means I had to… Play it and see if my predictions in yesterday’s video were true or not…
I can tell you’re just gagging to know what I measured in at *sigh* Well I don’t like to disappoint…
After discovering I had gained a 1lb from last week I really didn’t want to get my tape measure out which is precisely why I have to do it. If I face up to things then I have to action don’t I, after all it’s only me that can do this shizzle for me.
My measurements are:
Chest: 38.5″ / 98cm (down 0.5″/1cm)
Waist: 31″ / 79cm (no change from last week)
Fattest bit (hips/belly): 38″ / 96.5cm (no change from last week)
Left thigh: 21.5″ / 55cm (no change from last week)
Left Arm: 11″ / 28cm (no change from last week)
To recap from the video – this week I weighed in at 9 stone 13lb / 139 lbs / 63.2 kilos (UP 1lb) BUT my body fat percentage was down 1% to 31% so that’s a good positive.
And already I have a confession to make – I felt so fed up that I ate last horrid white bread roll with cheese and mayo and salad and had a packet of crisps AND ate about six wedges of a Chloe’s chocolate orange as she didn’t like the dark chocolate and it was sat in the cupboard speaking to me saying ‘yeah, c’mon, you’ve eaten a load of crap already and you’ve officially ballsed up your healthy eating diet so go the whole hog and finish me off too – you don’t have to tell anyone’.
So I sat in the garden in the sunshine and ate all that rubbish and then thought OMG what AM I doing?
I came inside and watched my video and uploaded and thought about what worked for me in Week 1 that I didn’t do in Week 2? That was being totally honest, on a daily basis on here about what I was putting in my mouth, which is why I’ve just confessed.
After all, I AM doing really well with my exercise – I’ve gone from barely limping round the block for 10 mins without stopping to running (near enough) non-stop for 30 mins with interval training (alternating between jogging and sprinting between lamp posts), followed by crunches – I’m now doing 4 x sets of 70. So the only thing that is really letting me down is what I’m consuming and how frequently.
FFS, I CAN do this.. and I CAN deal with my emotions… and I CAN stop eating and start feeling things again.. in fact I am daring myself too.
