1. No gym (who would have thought I would worry about this 3 months ago!)
2. Being able to stick to my diet plan (oops)
I was really good on Thursday night and stuck to my water and no snacks policy but Friday was a disaster- even I can't stretch it to call it a cheat meal.
Dinner out at my favourite restaurant wold have been OK if I hadn't eaten all of the nibbles plus a starter before my main arrived (I know, I know). To top it off I drank several glasses of prosecco and wine THEN went out clubbing. Oh the shame, the guilt!
Saturday I was feeling a bit rubbish that I'd blown it so spectacularly that I was glad when my sis-in-law offered the chance to train with her on Saturday night. We worked our whole upper bodies arms, chest, shoulders and back in what turned into an epic 2 hour gym session. I was in so much pain afterwards! It was non eventful except me getting stuck on a pull up weighted machine and my pants unravelling due to a loose thread. Epic. Embarrassing. So glad that is not my usual gym!!
One thing I learned was that it's so weird training somewhere you aren't familiar with. Granted most of the equipment was the same but it just felt so strange!
Sunday was a struggle - everything hurt. I knew it must have been a good workout to have caused that much pain. I was even still sore on Monday morning.
Body pump was on as usual on Monday but it haseems changed. The gym I go to has standardised the workout and the music. The tracks are longer and much more intense than before. It was a good workout. I managed to up my weights for legs and arms as well as back but not quite chest yet. I'm hoping that will come next week.
Since last Tuesday I have dropped 5lbs - not entirely sure how following on from my epic cheat at the weekend! If only that were the trick every week!
