Day 36 - Baby Steps

Well guys, things seem to be improving! My toe is feeling loads better and I can (almost) walk without a limp, so hopefully I'm not far off jogging again!

I've been eating as healthily as I possibly can, but still have a bad feeling about this weeks weigh in. Not being able to burn off any of the calories I've eaten has been really tough, harder than I thought it would've been!

Food Diary -

Breakfast - Special K with semi-skimmed milk
Lunch - pasta with peppers and light mayonnaise
Dinner - mushroom omelette

Tomorrow is weigh day (argh!!!) so I'll be back then with the results!

Day 34 - Insanity!

Hey guys!

So, who has heard of insanity? Who has tried insanity? I am contemplating buying it once my toe heals. It is alot better today, so I am hoping everything will be back to normal by the end of the week. Not sure if it was actually a broken toe now by the speed of my recovery! It is still splinted up to the next toe just to help it heal better but hopefully that can come off soon!

Anyway, back to insanity! For those who have not heard of it, Insanity is a high cardio workout, which can be bought on DVD. It is a strict 60day workout plan, with each day being a different workout. I've read a lot about it and it looks very intense, but for some weird reason I still want to give it a go! What do you think? Do I need to get fitter first?

Wedding wise, I have been looking at more dresses! I know exactly what style I want now, and think I've found the one, but am just making my last few final checks to make sure I make the right decision! So I'm hopefully going to two more dress shops in the near future to put my mind at rest!

Food Diary -

Breakfast - Special K with semi-skimmed milk
Lunch - Spaghetti (yep- just tinned spaghetti!)
Tea - Pork chops with mash potato, peas, sweet corn and carrots. It was delish! Picture below.

Be back tomorrow with more tales :) x

Day 33 - Little by Little

Progress guys! My toe is feeling alot better today. I can put more pressure on my foot, and can walk a little better. I'm sure that doesn't sound much to you, but is very exciting for me!

I am hoping to be walking properly by the weekend, as I have two events to go to which I want to wear heels for! I might be stretching it a little too much for that, but that is my aim! I cannot wait to get moving properly again, and back to my jogging. I have a horrible feeling having this much time inbetween jogging is going to make me fall behind on my progress, and take longer to complete the route.

Food Diary -

Breakfast - Special K with semi-skimmed milk
Lunch - Cheese and salad sandwich on granary bread
Dinner - Half a sweet potato with mushrooms, onions, peppers with herbs, spices and passatta.

Below is a picture of my tea. There is a sweet potato hiding under there somewhere!

Hope your all having a good day.

So yeah, no improvements on the toe situation. I tried to rest and elevate my leg as much as possible today to make sure I'm okay going back to work tomorrow.

Food Diary -

Breakfast - bacon sandwich on brown bread
Dinner - spaghetti bolognese
Pudding ... see picture! it was delicious :) you will be proud to know I didn't finish the ice cream. I decided I didn't need all of it. I do have some will power in there somewhere!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend.
