Well, that was a good day yesterday. We had a second day of birthday cakes in the office, and I managed once again to stay sane. I ate when I was hungry, stopped when I wasn't and hit my 29 points, as promised.
Better still, I think I finally figured out the eating conundrum before running club last night. Two slices of hot buttered toast beforehand, and then a grilled chicken breast with a portion of leeks and mushrooms sauteed in vegetable stock afterwards. I didn't feel sick whilst running for a change, even though it was hideous interval training last night with lots of flat-out sprints up and down the line of runners in my group.
In fact, after an unintended break of 3 weeks from running club, and some pretty shitty runs in the meantime, that felt like the best run I've had in weeks. Knackering but stronger than it's been for a while.
I had a stray 2 points to use up at the end of the day, so I even had the strength to have half a Curly Wurly and put the rest in the fridge.
I would say I felt great this morning, and a loss less bloated than I've felt in a while, but given the topic of yesterday's post - it's irrelevant. Or rather, yesterday's behaviour is irrelevant. I've moved on already - new challenge - can you guess what it is? Yep - 29 points today. No more. Simple really :o)
I made a New Year's resolution that 2009 would be the year I would finally get healthy ... with the aim of losing 70lbs. That journey was the start of changing many things in my life for the better ... and I'm still on the journey!
