Ten days in and the testing moments aren't finished yet. Have to say today was tiring, frustrating and annoying. I pretty much felt like pigging out from this morning until now. The good news is I didn't. I couldn't figure out how I would explain it here so this idea must be working. I did skip exercise today but I don't think that's the end of the world, I'll pick up the slack tomorrow.
I did however fail at one of my earlier undertakings today. Despite promising to avoid the scales for the week, I succumbed after only 36 hrs and got on today. Needless to say I paid the penalty for my insolence with a 1/2 kilo gain on the dial. I guess that serves me right for my impatience. Ironically, my eating had been as good during that period as it has since the start, so I guess that's why weekly weigh ins are better
It's just one of those things I guess. I was having a bad day and was looking for re-assurance in all the wrong places. At least I'll be in less of a hurry to get back on before next Saturday.
I'm going to contact a mate who owns a bike shop tomorrow and look into getting myself a tredly. My dodgy knee seems to be struggling even on short walks so hopefully the lower impact of riding will give me another alternative to the heavy bag workouts.
I had those bloody daydreams today of fast-forwarding six months or so to skip all the hard work and enjoy a fitter, healthier me. But alas I woke to the reality that this journey has but barely begun.
If my dodgy body feels up to it tomorrow Naomi and I will head to the PCYC and have a shoot around on the basketball court. This is always a much more enjoyable fitness session for me.
OK time to close the book on day 10 and look forward to a more positive day tomorrow.
cheers for now
