Saturday sickness.?.

I could have slept longer, but between the alarm (snoozed) and Eddie (hungry boy) I was forced to get up. I took Matt a cuppa and sat to drink mine. 

'Do you want it or not?' I asked myself angrily as I could feel the effects of the wine from last night and my tiredness giving me excuses to skip my workout.

'Yeh, but I can do it tomorrow or later...'

I am a practised procrastinator over nearly everything I do, I can put things off so well that I am surprised I get anything done. There really is only two choices this morning... Take a step towards my goal or step slightly further away again.

I made it, I am sat on my bench chugging a protein shake, Jodie marsh - bodybuilder on tv for inspiration and rock music blasting for power. I can do this, I can turn my life around and be the strong fit woman competing - I can!

Whilst my strength has dropped this was still a tough workout, in fact my arms are shaking whilst I am typing!

Time to jog it out now... Managed a fantastic 13 mins at 8:5.... That's a long way from my 10k I used to run every Saturday morning... But I'll get there....

Shower & brekkie before mum arrives, as normal we put the world to rights, chatting about anything and nothing. I caved and had pain au chocolat with my coffee, but I plan another cardio session later so at least I will work it off!

From there the day went downhill... I began to feel lightheaded, dizzy, generally quite sick...  I figured it was lack of food and inhaled some cottage cheese, raspberries and oatcakes before we went out to run some chores.  The feeling never left me and before I thought about it we were on our way home with 2 huge pizzas.

[note to self ... Must have ingredients ready for the Chicago pizza pie clean recipe I have if I  ever feel like that again!!]

We chilled watching films, bathing and then finally headed to bed
