Man am i tired today. I was nearly falling asleep on all the buses i took today (yes all of them, on Fridays i take at least 4, and today i took 5) and i thought that this was just because of the motion, but it didnt pass and i was worn out completely. I got t the gym and was absolutely shattered, but i did a 45 minute power walk instead of a run so at least i can say i tried. But god, that was hard. My skin has been bad lately, mostly my own fault because i ran out of moisturiser and thought i could get away with using old stuff. Well i could, until it all caught up with me and my skin went haywire again. Which means lots of discomfort and pain, and very little sleep. But i have the right stuff now and should be healing relatively quickly yay!
On a stranger note when i got to the gym there were these 2 members of staff standing on the benches in the women’s changing room, tapping the ceiling and saying “are you there john??” I considered coming back when they weren’t having a schizophrenic episode but since i was there i thought i might as well keep going. And as i was leaving John actually replied. So either we are all mad or there was something wrong with the air conditioning. Both are probably just about equally as likely at my gym ![]()
Had a pretty good day today. I resisted the urge to absolutely gobble every dessert resembling food in the house tonight (although i did allow myself a biscuit instead-Rome wasn’t built in a day you know). I was feeling pretty good
i was like, yeah just try to stop me now!
Then i ran a heater over my toe >.<
Yes i was right, i am sore today. But in a good way. You know how your muscles ache and it makes you feel strong? Yes thats paradoxical, but its true for me. Today I’m supposed to go for a run, but I dont know if I will. I have training tonight for 2 hours, and it might be a good idea to rest my legs after yesterday. I used to have my weigh ins on wednesdays but ive changed them to mondays and it feels weird not to weigh in today, feels like i havent done it for ages. I find it really easy to slip into the habit of weighing myself everyday, so i really must try not to do that. I must hold out and try not to weigh myself again until monday. Sigh
I went to training tonight, feeling huge because i had eatten too much pasta just before. I decided not to look up how much of my carbs blocks that much pasta would take up, and when i did i was disappointed to find that it took up 4! Which is a lot since im only supposed to have 6 a day. I felt down because i hadnt had dinner yet and was convinced that i would end up screwing the day up right at the very end when i had had a good day otherwise. Anyway, i went to training. We have mirrors along one wall. And when i started out I saw myself and i thought, what a blob. How disappointing. How could i let it get that far etc etc. But as the session went on i began to think, wow look at what that body can do, look at what it knows how to do. Thats pretty cool. I felt pretty positive about myself towards the end.
And when i got home i found that i wasnt hungry, so i didnt eat anything. And as the night went on i got snacky, but didnt have anything. So i didnt end up ruining the day anyway!
So a pretty good day really
Man am I sore. You know how you can do a work out and as you’re doing it you just know which muscles are going to hurt later on? Well i know for sure that my lower right back and right bicep are going to kill me tomorrow. I love doing the weights class at the gym though, about 20 mins in you feel so strong. And about 30 minutes in you feel like you’re dying
But thats ok. Hurting is a sign of a good workout, so im happy. I did come back and eat a biscuit and a few chips, but im not too upset about that, i was starving and i limited myself to just one, so its within my daily diet allowance. I’m pretty happy with today’s work out, i nearly managed to have weights on the bar the whole time! I know that doesnt sound very impressive, but the bar itself apparently weighs about 8kg. And at least now i am feeling warmer
Some days you just cant get warm in winter, so you just have to get off your butt and do some exercise, get that blood pumping.
And having done that, im going to play final fantasy until dinner ![]()
Well i guess this is my first post in here. Im not sure what to put, i’ll have to brain storm because i like to have things all sorted and organised in my blogs ^_^ So check back soon i guess
