Week 65 (14) - Weigh In

Last week - 63.1 Kgs
This Week - 64.7 Kgs
GAIN 1.6Kgs

This really isn't as bad as it looks. Yes I took a week off from everything, but there is no way that I ate enough calories to put on 1.6kgs. I do believe I can contribute most of this to alcohol consumption. My body holds on to any skerrick of ANYTHING even after one lousy drink, let alone several. We had a great night out though, and even with all the travelling, a lovely week. I am very much looking forward to a week and weekend at home doing a whole lot of nothing though!

As of today i've lost 800 grams of that 1.6kgs, I'm hoping that by weigh in next week, i will have lost all of it. I only went to the gym once last week, and I kind of missed it. It was great having a down week, I think I needed it, but it was so good to get back into the gym yesterday. Speaking of which, I DID MY FIRST EVER CLASS!!!! Body PUMP! I didn't actually hold out hope that I would get through it all as i'm still pretty unfit, but I did! I was getting pretty shaky towards the end, but I still finished it. I wasn't planning on going to it, but i saw a friend in the carpark and while we were putting the kids in creche, she said, come on lets do pump, so off we went.

How did I pull up? I'm struggling to move ROFL. My legs are so so sooooo sore from doing lunges and squats (and apparently I do lunges wrong so I need to find out the right way to do them). I'm a little tender in the arms and shoulders, but they aren't nearly as sore as I thought they might be. I also feel like I have got a bruise on the base of my neck, from where the bar was sitting across my shoulders. It's sore normally at the best of times, but it's pretty bloody painful today.

Weill I go to pump again, yep pretty sure I will, and I'm even considering trying different classes. I struggled a little bit with my dodgy knees, but they held up much better than I thought they would. I burnt 385 calories in 55 minutes, but i forgot to turn my watch on at the start so it would have been a bit more. I finished the day off with an hour bike ride during loser, burning another 430 calories.

Here's to a good week of great eating and exercise.
