There Is Nothing Of You!!!

Back up to 14.5!!!!! Disaster! Mind you, I did weigh the second I woke up and before going to toilet so it might not really be as bad as all of that. But that is what it said. So today I am trying to be better. I had a healthy sandwich when I was out and have just input it and it is 6 points!!!! SIX POINTS! If I’d made myself a sandwich it would have been 2.5!

So I went to the gym for my assessment today! I have lost 1 stone 1lb since my last assessment, however my fat % has gone up 5%! This just goes to show that what you do eat really does matter. When I had my last assessment I was eating like a goddess, seriously loads of veg low fat meals. This last month although I have been eating little enough to lose pounds, it has had a much higher fat content. I guess that is why I have put on 5% fat!

I have lost a further 8 inches from my body. Two point five from my waist, 1 from my bust, 1.5 from my hips, 1 inch from each of my thighs and 1 inch from one of my arms. So that is pretty cool.

I didn’t rate this instructor anywhere near as my old one, S. She is like do you even want your workout changed? I said yes and she asked me how I wanted it changed. I mean fair enough, let the client guide what you give them to do but she is the qualified instructor, not me! Although when I told her how I adapted my workout (changed the weight training, quit the warm up and jogged) she said it was better than what was given to me before. She gave me some extra tricep pulls, tricep dips and lunges to do so that is cool.

After I finished my workout and was going upstairs to get my bag, one of the receptionists called me over and said my old instructor, S, was upstairs and I should go and say hi “because I know she’d be made up to see you!” I thought that was lovely - it just goes to show the connection I felt with her was not one sided because she has obviously been raving about me to the other staff. So I went upstairs and found her. She gave me a big hug, said it was great to see me and “omg theres nothing of you!” She exaggerates! But it is that kind of enthusiasm I loved and fed off from her! I miss it so much! She’s loving her new job, I am pleased for her but kinda wish she didn’t and would come back! She was praising me for losing another stone (she was chatting to my new instructor when I found her and they’d been discussing me). She really boosted me for ages after seeing her.

Then I went for some retail therapy! I bought new shoes (black, pointy with a kitten heel), a 1950’s style skirt, a black top, 2 dresses, a stripy tshirt and a black cami vest. Yayness! All the clothes apart from the skirt are in a size 14 (skirt is a 16). Imagine that!

Groovybabe is 14.11 stones today and has lost 6lbs at her last weigh in.

  1. Glad you got your workout sorted out. The trainer doesn’t seem to care as much as your other trainer.

    Retail therapy in a size 14!!! You ROCK!!
