How was my day? Bloomin' marvelous! Woke up early and headed straight to revive for Core work out and swim before work. Chanted new mantra over & over as I relaxed in sauna & jacuzzi after "I am a runner". Seemed t have convinved myself as I had a brilliant run with the dogs on a warm sunny afternoon through the woods!No lung burn or heavy legs. Thank Goodness! I haven't run for nearly for weeks and still carrying holiday icecreams! Dogs did well esepcially the 13 year old! Dogs have been very quiet! New zumba style class postponed. Was due to do that this evening. Rather disappointed. Decided to not do anything instead although could have tried for Boxercise class at revive but opted for evening rest & catch up with girly gossip.

Slight change in how I write up food. I need to lose weight & need to get very serious & focus about it. I shall do what I have done in the past & eat simple food smartly to refuel body with proteins & carbs at the right time. Food is temporarily no longer a social event or tantalising taste bud event. Will now do in this format so I have my calories & protein spread over the day as 6-8 eating times. Carbs in the morning; protein biase for the afternoon/evening. Only add carbs if evening work out. Protein shakes used for convenience when working. If i haven't got the labels breakfast/lunch/dinner then I can't keep fantasizing about food. Hoping this will help!
