Been continuing with my 30 Day Shred-my shin splints are killing me though :( Asked my doctor about it today and she says other than getting good shock absorption trainers (which I've now got) and using a deep heat rub on them (which I got today-it DOES help) she said my body will eventually get used to it! Great! :( I was in so much pain doing my workout this morning there were a couple of tears! No pain no gain has taken on a new meaning!
I'm still doing everything I can to have proper meals instead of pre prepared rubbish-today I made a yummy recipe from my weight watchers cookery book-I really don't cook I'm not very confident but OMG it was absolutely delicious I could have eaten it twice over! It was chicken and potato masala-and I peeled and sliced a sweet potato to have wedges with it too (I burnt them slightly but well glaze over that bit haha) ... Here is my master piece:
I'm so proud of it because, as I say I don't really cook at all and when I do it's stuff for the kids! I HATE raw meat I have a bit of an irrational fear of it. But having cooked this dish tonight, with chicken in it (providing I don't end up with food poisoning tonight haha) I now feel a lot more confident! I went and bought enough ingredients for three recipes in my book. Tonight's dish was to serve 4 so I've frozen three other portions for a quick handy healthy tea. Tomorrow I'll try one of the other ones and the last one on another night. Figured if I can make enough dishes to last me a week or two it will be loads easier to eat clean but with less effort or time involved!
Wedges myself yesterday...I've now lost 8 & 1/4 Ibs so I've finally passed my half a stone mark! Yippee!
I can REALLY see my body changing though it's crazy! My tummy has a totally different shape and looks more toned, loads less flabby, and when I used to walk up my stairs past my mirror on the wall I used to cringe at the sight-lately it's nice to see it slowly but surely shrinking as I walk last each time haha!
Doctor diagnosed me with tonsilitis today which is what I suspected! I just can't let it slow me down though. Apart from having a little by of a fever last night and my throat feeling really sore first thing in the morning and last thing at night I feel ok. Both my kids are over their illnesses now and are back to sleeping through again - hurrah!! The extra sleep is exactly what I've been needing :))) x
