Still on with training

This is the end of my second week of the test-run of a proper well-thought plan of training and food. Ladies and gentlemen I have good news: it's not that strict, you are allowed to 'deviate' from the prescribed road every now and again. Without flexibility it would be stupid difficult. With too much flexibility you would never get anywhere. But with about 10% flexibility especially in eating gives you an amazing 'I deserved this slice of cake' feeling and no guilt at all. Does worth it.


The results so far
  • Some weight loss (a bit more than a kilo): but this was not the target
  • I look in the mirror and I like what I see (ok apart from a desperatley-in-need-of-color hair but I am just in the middle of resolving that issue now)
    • abs: getting more defined
    • bum: nice shape, soggyness gone
    • legs: cellulite disappeared, skin nice and tight
    • arms: proper arm-shape not sausage-shape anymore

Eating-wise
I feel satisfied after my well -thought meal. I am getting lazy with measuring stuff but I seem to get closer to knowing how much 100 grams is. That's a bad thing: I should stick to the scale. One day every week I allow myself something 'unallowed': a half scone, a slice of cake or half slice of bread and butter. Whatever I feel like that day. I like creamy cake I have to admit and it does not make me feel guilty as it's part of the plan.

Training-wise
So far every other day, 3 times a week, the prescribed amount of training with the prescribed weights. Thank God for weekends, I can have my training today instead of Friday. Much more handy as Friday evening all I wanted is to die after work. Not proud of it, but as long as I have the 3 training sessions a week, who cares if it's Friday or Saturday? Plus some Primal Move in the meantime. 

So yes, 2 weeks in, and I still love it, it's still not a burden, and I like myself more and more. There's a lot of psychology in it too, but that's also part of the game. I'm not worried about my weight, my looks or my food anymore, so I can worry about other things. I'm trying to eliminate the 'other things' from my life too so I do not have to worry as I do tend to worry too much.
