This week has been a busy one for me, my boss has been on holidays so I am in charge at work, which inevitably means more work and longer hours. Very glad tomorrow is his last day off for a little while!
I was very excited on Wednesday morning when I weighed myself for my first official 12wbt weigh in - I have lost 4.1kg so far! Feeling very proud of myself.
Today was a bit of a harder day, I have felt very tired all day and have had massive cravings for junk food, but I'm pleased to say I resisted the temptation! I am looking forward to next Wednesday and hopefully seeing the scales 1-2kg lighter than I am now. That is what I kept reminding myself of today when I wanted cake, or chocolate, or take away... just think of next Wednesday and the results I want to see on the scales....
I am finding exercising easier at the moment with having the heart rate monitor - not easy in the sense that it is easy to DO, but easier in that when I look at how many calories I have actually burnt, if it isnt at a level I want to be, it is easier to find that motivation to push myself a bit harder to get those extra calories burnt.
My biggest exercise challenge so far was a step class I did on tuesday night. OMG I thought I was gonna die! Out of breath, heart racing, face red as a tomato, sweat pouring off me - I gave it my all.... and then some! It was a great achievement to finish the class though, and I burnt over 800 calories so that was pretty awesome!
