Lets do this!

4 weeks to go and it's time to pull out all the stops.

first task ........drop some more body fat. I've been very cautious about my weight on the scales and how low it is dropping (currently sitting around 46.5kg). And as a result, I have backed off the cardio. But with just 4 weeks to go and an absolute fear that I won't get to where I want to be, it's time to bring back the cardio!

second task.........no more protein balls. I made these last week and although they are full of goodness (almonds, protein, cranberries, goji berries) they are delicious and I eat too many. They are all gone now and there's no way I'm making any more!

Finally..........Improve the weight workouts. After watching Max's tv last night, I introduced a couple of new things into today's session - 2 second hold on each rep, 5 second hold on final rep (if possible) and drop sets (Lower weight for final set, rep till failure). Will be doing this at each session from here on.

So today was Day 1 of the final 4! And I've had a ripper! Awesome legs set this morning which resulted in very shaky legs by the end ........and a 10km run on the treadmill tonight. Feeling very pleased with myself. These legs better be sore tomorrow!

On a side note, it was my brothers 40th birthday on the weekend. I wore a lovely dress that a friend gave me. Very different to what I would normally wear but I am feeling so good about my boy that I'll wear anything and rock it! I was pretty good with my nutrition. Managed to resist all the desserts at the party on Saturday night. But Sunday night was a different story. I thought long and hard and decided that I would enjoy a piece of potato kuchen (my nanas recipe) with a scoop of icecream. With some conditions........that's it for the next 4 weeks, and it had to be guilt free. I didn't want to have it and then regret it, so I decided that I was going to enjoy it, and would not be racked by guilt after. It was delicious, I did enjoy it, and I don't feel guilty at all! 1 piece of cake in 10 weeks is not going to kill me!

Finally, i must be happy with the way I'm looking.........I wore a crop top on the treadmill tonight! Bring back the crop top! I love running in just a crop but the first time in a while is always a bit nerve racking! Woo hoo!

Bring on the net 4 weeks!!!!!
