Glasto was muddy - bad, bad, badly muddy!
So, I got through it - 5 whole days and nights in the biggest mudbath imaginable with almost non stop rain - it was very hardcore.
There are 3 elements that make up the perfect Glasto; great weather, great line up, ability to get absolutely spangled. Not even one of these elements was in place for me this year! Boy oh boy, it was just the toughest time ever. I actually wish that I hadn't gone. I love this festival and just couldn't imagine not going, and even though I was apprehensive before I went, nothing could've prepared me for how bad it was.
So here is the worst bit. According to my scales I have lost 2lb. 2lb!!! After complete abstinence in the mudbath whilst everyone else was partying their wellies off!! I am devastated. My losses have slowed down to almost non existent and I've got no idea why. I've lost 1st in the last 5 weeks. I still have 2 and a half stone to lose before Management. 1st in 5 weeks could be loads to some, but it's teeny for me and now development is just stretching out forever.
Why is this happening? I hardly drank any water at Glasto and had 2 bars and 2 packs everyday. Practicalities ruled and the 2 bar thing was unavoidable. I also had a fair bit of milk, but as I didn't do the milk week I thought this would be the week to do it. Because I didn't have anywhere near the amount of water I should've had (again, practicalities - I wont go into the loo situations at Glasto, I wouldn't want to put anyone off their foodpacks!) I felt pretty rubbish, and now thinking I must have knocked myself out of ketosis big time. But to have only lost 2lb...after what felt like the most deprived week ever...I'm really down.
My LLC has no clue why I'm slowing down so much after being the quickest loser in my group so far. The only thing that I'm doing 'off-plan' as it were is having a few scoops of CD's mix-a-mousse. Is this the problem?
I'm going to have a week of no m-a-m, no bars and no cooking of the packs to see if I can get a bit of a move on. I so wanted to be in management by mid july, that's never going to happen now.
I'm really fed up. Oh and I'm now full of cold, which definitely isn't helping.
Help please Mini's
