Sunday round up

I had a really great day today – felt very motivated and switched on today so that has been a nice change!  I reduced my medication dose last night to 1.5mg so maybe that has helped me feel less groggy.  I was reading a doctor’s report which discusses how to wean off benzo’s and it was talking about people who use over 80mg of diazepam a DAY!  Here I am on 2mg and feeling like a wrung out rag, I can’t imagine taking that much – I’d be in a coma I think.  Anyway, today I got a bunch of backed up work done.

Training

Had a good session with Jodie today, we trained chest and biceps, with some abs.  I did 20 reps on the ab wheel, my best so far.  Let’s see if I am sore.  12 sets of chest, was a bit sore from shoulders and tris though which didn’t help.  I haven’t got my new training regime yet, I am hoping it may come through tonight!  I even did 20 mins of cardio (mostly bike) after my training, whoop de doo, but hey it’s something   And it didn’t hurt my hip but my legs felt like jelly afterwards, goes to show how detrained I currently am in the cardio (especially bike riding) department.

Damien has gone out to pick up Indian for dinner.  We have been having this a bit lately – if he had his way I think we would have it every night.  We have found 2 new dishes and we keep getting the same ones all the time.  A lamb one (really hot) and a milder chicken one.  Plus some cottage cheese blocks and peas in curry sauce, yum, naan bread and mango chutney and yoghurt dip.    Of course rice too.

Body & Soul

My article appeared today, was pretty happy with how it came up!  Also we were mentioned in the lead story, “A Fresh Start” – by Louisa Deasey, with Carolyn again featuring!  She is a hot topic these days!

New You competition – Grand Champion 2007

Will be announced in a week’s time – we have the list of finalists on the home page.  Congratulations on some wonderful transformations – it will be so very difficult to choose our eventual winner and runner up.

Having coffee with Nadia tomorrow, Nadia is a previous client who lives in Mildura – we met by chance at the gym after she’d finished her 12 week program.  So, will be nice to catch up with her.  Hope everyone has a fab week!
