I Won Week One

So the countdown to 40FIT&FAB started last Thursday 11th September where I had 250 days remaining. Seven precious days have passed by already. I had this post ready this morning but I was trying to think of a witty angle or a great photo. Nothing came to me. But do you know what? That is because I do not need it today.
I lost 3 lbs!!!!!! I was going to weigh out some butter and do an arty shot to visualise it. But you do not need that do you!?!?! Just know - I am doing this. Some days it will be pretty. Today it just means something. It means a lot. So this is the post I wrote:

WEEK ONE - DONE

 

Mr Big wanted to take things slowly. Now I am more of a wham bam kinda girl myself but I understand it makes sense. This is it (This time I know its the real thing. I can't explain what I'm feeling... Sorry I cannot help it - it is a TUUUUUUUUUNE).

So what changes have I made?

Eating breakfast. Check

No chocolate, crisps, cakes or all manner of wonderful sweet and savoury marvels. Astoundingly. Check

Introducing Crossfit into my life. Check
Actually being positive inside as well as the facade. Big Fat (or not so Fat) Check

 

Now Crossfit. I have no idea why something so evil can be such fun. I spent the weekend crying at the sight of stairs. I asked the Hubby to install disability rails and an emergency pull cord to the toilet it hurt that bad to sit down. It is a tough workout but for some bizarre reason I love it. Especially my Breakfast & Barbells classes (they lie though - no breakfast). Love training with the girls and so far it has felt like a really positive piece of the 40FIT&FAB jigsaw.

 

Mr Big - so far so good. He is putting up with the fact that although approaching 40 I am, in fact, a big kid and trying to work with it (it being moi).
 

Fish is too smelly.

Bananas too yukky.

Most vegetables - too green.

He has not growled at me.....yet.

 

Would I love a biccy. Check

Would I run 5 miles just for a square of Dairy Milk. Check

 

Weight: 197lbs (pre no. 2!!! For those who have spent years dieting you know what I mean). I remember going to a fat club with a friend who will remain nameless who actually took off her necklace before the weigh in!!  
So 3LBS down. This actually feels amazing.

If you read this far without pictures - well done!
