Thank you for all your support. It really, really helps a lot.
I went to bed very tired physically last night and woke up equally tired. I did have a bonanza sleep as the alarm didn't go off and my children are so well trained that they left me to sleep. So I feel a lot better for it. Not quite a goddess yet, but had my 10-year old take some more photos and they are much better. I think they may be better though because my mental state is better.
Skipping was very, very hard today. Hadn't read about Mu Shin before I skipped and realise that I stress about the actual skipping, and I look down. Definitely not an empty mind. I would be thrown out of Zen school. Will practice tomorrow. But today whole body still very tired and very leaden. The skipping was in a word "arduous". Having something to eat and then will embark upon exercises. Dog walking later tonight. If I do it after dark then the dog speed walks. In the heat and in the sun there might be some sitting down in the shade involved which is not conducive to cardio.
Breakfast this morning was definitely eat to live rather than live to eat. Only pre-cooked veggies I had were green beans so I had 140g of green beans. Whilst a bit boring it was offset by the coconut muffins that I made yesterday and had for my carbs.
Coconut muffins? Will you share the recipe? My loaner dog did well on the walk this evening, she only sat down once. Ha! What's up with these pups? Glad you're feeling better! Oh and your waist is T-I-N-Y in your new photos you should be SO pleased! Well done!
ReplyDeleteHoney, you and me both on the skips. Dreadful.
ReplyDeleteI love that we are beating ourselves up over this though... and yet the photos still look amazing side by side with your day 1! You've really got to be thrilled when you look at those!
I think it might be that hard to dislodge tunnel vision! I want a flat taught tummy and it isn't there yet. But I have to agree the pics do tell. I can't imagine being Day 1 again! So it is a case of being happy with where you are.
ReplyDeleteLook at where you (and the rest of us) all started and compare apples with apples. These latest photos are brilliant when you look side by side with day 1.
ReplyDeleteI really want a flat tummy too but it is not going to happen in the next two weeks but at least I am on the way and I am feeling a lot more positive about it than 3 months ago.
I am going to post about skipping too today. I am going to tap it out now.
Thats more like it. Head up and positive. PCP is hard and it does get you down but you will do it and be so proud. Onwards and upwards!
ReplyDeleteCheck out your progress! Stay positive Conny and push on for the finish, you're doing so well.
