11 Weeks to a bikini – aaaaaaaaargh!
Sunday, March 14th, 2010After a week of no sleep (puppy) following on from 2 weeks of no sleep (flu) I at last ventured out on my bike for what feels like the first time this year and I now feel fat and desperately unfit.
I thought I was doing OK until this bloke came belting past me going twice as fast (on a bike), then about a mile further on two old geezers (yes, even older than me) did the same, and it just got worse after that with a whole bunch of them (not sure what the collective noun is for a bunch of roadies is, think it’s probably a ‘mud’ of mountain bikers, so maybe it’s a ‘razor’ of roadies as they all shave their legs). Anyway, felt very demoralised and also very depressed at the sight of my legs in my cycling shorts – deeply unpleasant.
So there’s nothing for it – have to shift 7 pounds and really tone up before I can get these pegs out in the air, haven’t done very well today, cooked roast beef and all the trimmings and ate 3 roasties and a yorkshire pudding instead of JUST veg and beef, then had Eve’s pudding and ice cream – very, very bad. So from tomorrow my aim is:
2 x swim sessions (starting with 40 lengths, building up to 62+ over the next few weeks) Mon and Tues
3 x early morning gym sessions (groan)
2 x 1 hour bike rides
Pilates on Tuesday
Yoga on Wed
Turbo trainer for at least 30 mins 3-4 times per week
No chocolate, biscuits, cakes, roasties, toast, other carbs, hoo hah – have to get into bloody minded determination mode and figured that if I blog it I’ll have to keep to it as you’ll be reading it and it will be just too embarassing. So here goes, let’s see what happens,
Did an hour on my bike this morning so that counts and 60 crunches (yes, I know that’s pathetic, need to do at least 100)
I WILL BE LEAN AND TONED……I DO NOT NEED CHOCOLATE AND BISCUITS…..MY BODY IS A TEMPLE THAT ONLY ACCEPTS HEALTHY FOOD AND FRESH FRUIT AND VEG……OM!
