Early start today for me, up at 5:35, and in the gym for 6! Feeling good after my workout, so hoping this lasts all day!
Went to WI last night and 0.5lb off. Whilst I would have liked more, I know my own pattern that when i really push it at the gym, i dont lose much for 2-3 weeks and then it starts again, so at least I am prepared. I am also back to main Red / Green days, as I know that they work better for me than EE, which is a shame as I like EE - but sticking to what I know works!
