LOVE.

Feeling unsupported.

Went shopping yesterday and found that I didn’t fit in the usual size 10’s and had to move up to size 12s. Now, since I’ve been working hard to stay trim, moving up a size was not what I expected or wanted. I also haven’t lost a kilo since I started this blog (not that kilo loss is really what I’m aiming for, but it is a little surprising…)

Add on top of that, my mum giving me flack for wanting to eat more vegetables at dinner and I’m not in the greatest head space about my body right now.

Overall, I feel like in some little ways, my mum is (UNINTENTIONALLY) sabotaging my efforts by making junk food for dinner, comments about how being a size 12 is ok and being just generally a bit down on my efforts. May I just say that she does come running with me and is a very good supporter with my exercise, but it seems that changing my diet and eating habits is not ok.

Anyway, just wanted to share a few struggles. Off for a run tonight and will definitely be banging out a full tough mudder circuit tonight =)

TMT - Day 65

yetanotherfilmy — Thu, 17 May 2012 12:44:59 +0800

Yesterday was a 3.6km run & a tough
Mudder weights session.
Legs were a bit sore from konga the day before, but otherwise, pretty good :)
Bike ride and weights session today, and then podiatrist tomorrow!

Weird moment

yetanotherfilmy — Thu, 17 May 2012 12:25:44 +0800

Just had a beef and haloumi salad with lots of veggies and good things. I’m stuffed, but my brain wants dessert and I’m a little sad that I can’t fit any. Weird.
Gunna go home and drink a herbal tea or something…

TMT - Day 63 & 64

yetanotherfilmy — Wed, 16 May 2012 07:04:05 +0800

Monday mum and I ran the whole 3.5 km route. Which was awesome!

Yesterday was 2 hours of konga. But my heart wasnt in the second class… Just couldn’t find the motivation…

I’ve also come to the realization that I haven’t actually lost any weight. All this time and nothing.

Next steps:
Massive more effort, especially with the weights and;
Eating habit overhaul. Starting today, I will be keeping a food journal.

Just realised that McDonalds breakfast is not a reward for getting up early. It just compounds the exhaustion.

Sitting on the bus feeling shitty and needing a detox fast!!!

TMT - Day 57

yetanotherfilmy — Tue, 08 May 2012 11:12:00 +0800

Yesterday turned into a rest day, due to my lunch being extremely lack luster and I was starving when I got home… I guess that’s what happens when you have a free lunch… Today consisted of two circuits on the tough muddier boot camp… Should have done more, but I’m out of time. More tomorrow morning.

GPOY: Mum & me pumped after Friday’s run in the rain.

HALF AN HOUR TILL WORKOUT TIME!

yetanotherfilmy — Sun, 06 May 2012 16:28:00 +0800

Time to hydrate and find my TM workout sheet…

Think I might try the bootcamp version this week =)

TMT - Day 53 & 54

yetanotherfilmy — Sat, 05 May 2012 18:53:56 +0800

As you can tell, I got a bit out of habit the past week…

My hydration has been better this week though, I’ve been keeping my water bottle close at hand!

Yesterday, went for a 3.6km jog in the rain… (photo to follow!) Would have done a weights circuit, but I had to rescue my Dad and his powerless motorbike, so that put an end to that!

Today was a 3.6km jog (fastest time of 26.14), 60 sit ups, 20 push ups and the Call Me Maybe Mighty Squat Challenge.

TMT - Day 42, 43 & 44

yetanotherfilmy — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 18:27:00 +0800

Day 42 - Rest Day. Plus, I worked 12 hours

Day 43 - Started the day with my babysitting. 4 kids between 3 & 10. They like it rough. and preferably if I pick them up and throw them over my shoulder. The second child is a gymnast, so it’s a full on few hours. Then on to work for 8 hours.

Then an hour of Vypa. (see here: http://thejunglebody.com.au/classes/vypa)
It’s like body combat, only the instructor isn’t from a martial arts background.

Day 44 - 3.6 km jog (26.16), 70 sit ups & the Call Me Maybe Mighty Squat Challenge (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDpB8pWEjhk)

Couldn’t do a full Tough Mudder session today, because I didn’t eat lunch & didn’t hydrate properly throughout the day.

Overall though, not a bad effort. Now onto a Game of Thrones marathon!

TMT - Day 35 & 36

yetanotherfilmy — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 11:08:00 +0800

Monday was a wipe out. Should have run, but I didn’t. Bad me.

Konga for an hour yesterday.

Would have been 2 hours but the first session was cancelled because there were only 3 of us that turned up!

It’s school holidays here, so that might have something to do with it… No excuse, I say haha

Tonights plan is a run and weights session. I’ve been really light on the weights recently so need to pick the pace up again!

Also, I’ve come up with a new motivator. When I reach day 100 of this new, healthier tough mudder lifestyle, I’ll reward myself with new runners and exercise clothes. I’m pretty excited to reach day 100. It’s going to be an awesome day!

TMT - Day 34

yetanotherfilmy — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 14:38:00 +0800

So yesterday I ran 3.6kms with Mum, and then a friend called in a favour so I didn’t do a weights session.

wanted Guacamole on toast for lunch, but my avocado was rock hard… so I went with Sardines on toast instead… just wasnt the same.

Frozen berries for dessert and then onto a run and weights session tonight =)
