So the pity party is over and I am back on track. Thanks to the encouraging comments from Steveo, Adam and Sam! You guys were right and you really did make me feel alot better - thank you! I completely understand why we do this as a group now, the support is so amazing.
I have been working super hard the last couple of days and despite my lapse earlier in the week I have reached what I hoped would be my half way mark. I am 5kgs down with a couple of days to spare until half way. At the start of the programme I promised myself that the number of kgs lost didn't matter, it was more about how my clothes were fitting and what I looked like. This is still true, but it is still pretty awesome to see the numbers come down.
Diet: going well. Had a delicious breakfast yesterday : Egg, cottage cheese, avocado and a tomato relish (tomotoes, onion, peppers and corn) on a slice of wholewheat toast.
Workouts: Skipping has been more difficult this week. After being sick energy levels have not been great and this affects skipping most. I suppose skipping morning and evening has also made me more tired, but I now that I have lost a noticable amount of weight I am more determined than ever to lose more. The rest of the workout is difficult, but I have been pushing hard. I get into bed and my calves (only the outer part) ache. Not an excrutiating pain but quite uncomfortable.
To all the rugby supporters out there, good luck to your teams unless they are playing the Springboks :)
