If only...

I could see what my actual weight was. I managed to stick to my plan today. I ate nothing until 3pm (later than I planned) and had my Lipo-6 pill around the same time. I felt a bit of a buzz but not much really. I had my tea, my 1L water and the 500 ml vitamin water and by the time I hit the gym I had enough time to change and get to Zumba.


Zumba was lame-o for me. I couldn't remember most of the steps, couldn't see Maya properly and they've learned a few new moves since I last was there. I spent most of the time just sort of hovering. Not much cardio to talk about so I counted it as 30 min light dancing. Hit the weights after doing hip abductions, adductions, hamstring curls, back, deadlifts and stiff leg deadlifts. Think the last ones didn't hit their mark as I definatly felt it in my back and not my legs. Ran for 5 min after just as a cooldown and headed home.


Showered, ate half a soup and finishing up a coldish tea now. Less than 400 cals with around 160 burned not including weights. I'm happy with today.


Tomorrow is the same shift so work, then gym. Going to do a leg day tomorrow so quads and calves, with a healthly smattering of glutes and groin. Of course I can't neglect the abs! Plan on doing more cardio tomorrow, so running to start and bike or elliptical to end. Aiming for around an hour total of cardio and possibly 1.5hrs weights. I'll be home late again and my friend won't be happy but I can't help it.


I'll repeat the food but I may take 2 of those pills tomorrow, one around noon the other around 4, see if that gives me a boost. None for Weds and Thurs though. I can't take them every day. For dinner, leftover soup and possibly some steamed veggies as I anticipate being hungrier.


I'm proud of today. I managed to avoid cravings, not binge, not cave and stay strong. I just need to keep it going tomorrow. If I can make it till Sunday I can enjoy a treat :)


Totally forgot to weigh myself at the gym so I'm not sure what I'm at...
