Well, I've been in limbo weight loss wise since I've been back from the UK- just haven't been in the right headspace to get rid of what I gained on holidays. Last night I went the gym and tried to do the run on the treadmill using the speed, incline and duration my personal trainer set for me and I couldn't do it- I gave up after 22 min.
I came home feeling so disappointed, and completely and utterly exhausted. Mentally and physically. Then the rational thinking decided to bustle its way into my misery. The program that my trainer had set is too challenging for me. That is the bottom line. I am asking too much of myself. I believe the program would have been super challenging even at the level of fitness I was before I left for the UK, let alone after losing a bit of my fitness. So I decided I should sit down and come up with a plan that I knew I was capable of and would hopefully get me to some semblence of fitness required for the City to Surf. I also have been thinking about doing some PT sessions with another trainer to accelerate the process, and also get their advice on the program I come up with.
This will "Part A" of my "Get Real" plan. Part B is diet. Its time to get serious about getting to goal. I jumped on the scales this morning to have a look-see and low and behold, I am 1kg up from last week (71.5kg). Not surprising after the junk I ate on the weekend. So tonight I plan to sit down and plan what I will eat in the next week as well as my exercise plan. Let's see if I can get positive again!
