Well, my run
of 9 shifts in a row have become 10 and have been juggled around!! I am seriously starting to wonder who I have
upset (in this life or the last).
As a result
I have had to rethink my training schedule for the next few days – this is
playing havoc with the control freak in me!
This means no rest day but on the plus side I now get to attend my
swimming lesson tomorrow YAY!
This weeks workouts:
Wednesday
- Run – 4 miles
Thursday
- Strength Training – legs, back, biceps, triceps and abs
Friday
- Run – 3 miles
- Swimming Lesson
My run on Wednesday
was HARD! I had to work for every single
step and battled with myself the whole way round not to turn around and go
home. The worst bit was the wind. It didn’t matter which direction I was
running in it was always into the wind... how does that even work? The good thing about a hard run is how great you feel afterwards to know you completed it and didn't give in to that little devil sat on your shoulder telling you to stop.
I have been
positively angelic with my diet this week and have stuck to my plan of eating a
bigger meal at lunchtimes and salad for dinner.
It seems to be working well, as I found myself less hungry during the
day and haven’t had that 3-4pm slump! I
had a sneaky peak on the scales this morning (I just couldn’t help myself) and
I seem to have lost 1.5lbs so fingers crossed for the official number
tomorrow!
Here is an
example of my daily diet this week:
Breakfast:
Porridge
with honey and pumpkin seeds
Mid-Morning Snack:
Banana, pear
and a protein shake
Lunch
Quinoa with
grilled chicken and green veg
Mid-Afternoon Snack:
3 x oat
cakes and handful of almonds
Dinner:
Salmon salad
Strawberries
and low fat yoghurt
Oh my
goodness – when you write it down it looks like a shed load of food... no
wonder I haven’t been hungry ha!!
