Well, this is my first entry into my diary for my new challenge.
Im off on me jollies to a 5* swanky hotel in Sri Lanka on 30th November so i need to make sure i look my best to keep up apperances with all the skinny posh folk
Well im nearly 6 weeks post op from my tummy tuck and i braved the gym for the first time today and it was FANTASTIC! I loved every second of it and i am so glad that i can exercise again, its given me a new boost of confidence and im super motivated at the moment.
My challenge is to lose 1lb each week between now and my holiday so by my calculations i will lose 15lb and this will put me just under my target - get in!
My fitness challenge is to do 10 hours of moderate/intense exercise each week between now and then. This will be made up of 6 1/2 hours cardio and 3 1/2 hours of weights and toning.
My challenge started today and this co-incides with weigh in day. I've been retaining water due to the cocktail of tablets im on to fight this infection i have from my operation and this has made me gain 1lb tonight. Im not too stressed about it though because i know its the water and will hopefully have a good loss next week.
