I found that no matter how I start off a blog post especially the very first one on a new/ improved blog (such as this one) is always so difficult and I always look back at the post and find myself thinking how stupid it is! I have started this blog post about 3 times over now, each time thinking the next time will be better, but I can not seem to find the right way to start it off... so in the end I decided to just tell you how it is... simple... right?
As you have probably already read you know that I am using this blog as a means to an ends to release some of my thoughts some of my inspirations and motivations as I travel along this very long and winding road of fitness and weight loss. Unlike most people, I can afford to go to gym twice on a Monday, purely because I work shifts. Today happens to be my off day and that allows me to to do what I want when I want :)
They call the classes the Warrior Workout. It is basically 1 hour of absolute and utter torture. Its mostly floor based and weight based and most of the time its done in groups/ teams and on a rotational basis. Today was hard Wes and Dan really enjoy killing our upper bodies, working our chests and arms with weights, followed by some killer Kettle bell moves and of course abs. Now evening warrior is like daytime warrior on steroids... man oh man... they don't call it the Chris Walsh Academy for nothing and tonight even though we had a massive class we all walked out of there like total zombies... I am chuffed with myself that I managed to get in two sessions of the warrior workout but boy am I feeling it.
I decided that this week will be the beginning of something new for me (again) my eating has always been my downfall. No matter how hard I try I always seem to fail when it comes to eating properly. That and drinking enough water are my downfall and I know that the minute I manage to get this all under control the weight will just fall off me... and I am trying, don't get me wrong I am trying really really hard, its just that I am hardwired one way and to change it is a difficult process, now I just have to take it one day at a time.
Todays meals so far (all the supplements I use are Evox products - www.evox.co.za):
10h00 - Oats followed by joint support pills, omega 3&6, and xena
14h10 - Whey protein shake with glutamine and rice milk powder
14h45 - fruit smoothie
16h30 - 2 slices of homemade bread with feta cheese and tomato
20h45 - Fresh Tuna seared with lettuce cucumber and asparagus and for a dressing I used plain old Soya sauce mixed with some Wasabi for flavour
Water consumption: 1.5 of 2 litres (not counting the water I drank during the gym, cause without a doubt that was sweated out)
So far so good I just hope I can keep this up....
Tomorrow is measurement day.... dum dum dum :)
