Well week two began on a positive note - I was all keen to get into working out and all that - but I don’t really know what happened. I guess I lost my positive drive! We ate alright - except for a little force-feeding by kindly relatives one evening. I had a great day on Saturday - I resisted two cheesecakes, chocolate cake, Crunchie bars, pineapple lumps, popcorn, and pavlova. I was quite proud of myself.
Workout wise - well, no run, and no kettlebells. On Tuesday I hopped on a stationary bike for 40 minutes but it wasn’t hardcore. I was a little under-motivated to say the least. Such a terrible start! How will I ever get to where I wanna be? Well Sunday I went to a self-defense class. A lot of fun and I was hurting on Monday. Just things like kicks, punches, chops - all great for a bit of fitness. But the fact that I was hurting meant that my fitness is just dropping.
As for Elliot - well he’s been working out a few times per week and eating well - except he didn’t manage to resist the cheesecake. He’s allowed a bit of a reward right? But yeah we’ve both been really feeling it when we do workout, so our fitness levels have just dropped. A bit disappointing, but it can only get better right? Hopefully next week will be better. You know, I just thought - the weather was absolutely horrible this week. Perhaps that had something to do with my motivation- or lack of. Hopefully the weather will be better next week!

good on ya for avoiding the pav and the crunchie bar, pineapple lumps, I like but can resist if I stop long enough to think about what I’m doing but I would be hard pressed if there were bag in front of me right now LOL.
ummmmm pavlova you’ve got me salivating now.
