OK, so I struggled through this week a bit, but the scales were going in the right direction with a loss of 2.5lbs.
Only swam twice due to the pool being overrun with brats. (I hate summer holidays!) Though I did my water aerobics on Wednesday and Salsacise on Thursday, which was different and fun.
Fell off the wagon a bit yesterday as there was a huge BBQ at my house and I ended having some ice cream, White bread and butter, fruit juice and chocolate. Didn't graze massively though, but I'm not expecting miracles on the scale this week.
Have noticed my fitness improving though. My heart rate is lower, especially during work outs, and I can do double the time on machines. In many cases a lot more than that. I have lacklustre days, but on the whole I'm powering through everything.
On reflection I just wished I'd done this years ago!
I get to the pool at 8am on Saturdays to try to avoid the brat overrun, but there are always classes or something going on that I have to contend with. There's nothing more calming though than a gigantic pool with only a few people in it.
