Hormones schmormones

Well, been keeping track of my goals this week. A quick glance will show you that eating has been reasonable, exercise so-so, and everything else, well…..see for yourself.

Food first: the two missed dinners were when I came home from work and went straight to bed without tea! This working for a living is tough!! The non-compliant food on Wednesday was when hubby bought scones and clotted cream at the supermarket. I had one. I didn’t enjoy it. And I’ve ignored the remainder of the pack for the rest of the week. But the last couple of days, it’s been sugar cravings morning, noon and night. And then today I realised. TTOM. Like ruddy clockwork. I need to find a better way of dealing with these cravings. If you count the ticks – 21 out of a possible 28, or 75%

Exercise: Good bit of walking but been generally quite listless this week. Don’t know if it’s the hormones, the hayfever, or something else. I did do one resistance workout but didn’t push myself to do a second. I also didn’t push myself to do the intervals I’d wanted to start up again this week. My CV fitness has taken a real hit and I need to do something to kick start it. Counting the ticks, there were eight, or two hours’ worth.

Everything else: hmmm.

Goals for this week:

• Nutrition: Aim for 90% compliance.
• Exercise: Aim for three hours, including two resistance sessions and at least one interval session.
• Everything else: Do some studying!!!!!! And surprise my piano teacher and actually practice for once.
