This week has been better. I’ve finally managed to shift my cold and I’m feeling a lot better. My PT sessions were harder than normal as I think I was still recovering but I managed to fit in an extra HIIT session yesterday so I’m feeling good. It was tougher than I remember though. Always saddens me how quickly cardio fitness declines. 

Food wise I didn’t do too bad. I can do better and need to be careful of lazy lunches. I’ve not been prepping lunches everyday so have been getting food at work and it never fits my macros or calories. Will try to plan better this week. I’m gonna get the slow cooker out again now it’s getting cooler. That should help with meal prep. Must add more veggies too as I’m still not great at that. 

So this week I’m down 1 lb (yay!). Back in the 10s 😄. Waist measure is a little misleading as I think my magic leggings last week were the support kind. So waist measurement appears to be up again but that’s probably due to less supportive leggings this week. Still my lower tummy measure is down half an inch which is great! Slowly going back in the right direction. 

This week I’m gonna try and lose another 1-2 lbs to get to back where I was before illness. Rash plans to do a full body measure next Monday too which will be interesting. We usually do weekly weight and tummy measures. But not done a full body in a while. 

The new training programme is going well although I’m not loving the power plate squat pulses!! I did however have lots more fun than I was supposed to doing ball slams haha. I found a point on the gym floor that seems to allow the ball to bounce really well. Reps are always easier when it’s a game 😄🏋🏻‍♀️
