The New Me Weight Loss Retreat – Saturday

Hi all – thought I would give you a run down on my day today

Saturdays only have one training session and you cook your own meals – I think it’s to give you a break and also so you can have some sort of normal day plus I guess they need their time off. So here is what my day looked like today

Woke at 5.30am as it’s really 7.30am at home – had a text conversation with my husband then got up at about 7.30, went down to the kitchen and grabbed the rest of the soup I didn’t finish last night as the other girls had warned me we didn’t get to eat until later. Into the gym at 8.30 to meet up with Adro but he didn’t make it so Ray filled in. Instead of training us for an hour which is what the sessions usually are – we all were given the amount of calories we had to burn and we couldn’t finish until we did so I was second finished and I think it took me an hour 20 minutes maybe. Ray pushed us but it is a good push – wish I could take him home and have him train me every day , I am learning so much from him.

Then it was breakfast and a quick chat and talk about what we were doing .I planned to walk to the shopping centre and just walk and walk all day to get my calorie burn up so at 11am I went upstairs with the intention to shower and change but thought I might just lay down for a bit – dozed off and woke at 12.30pm ,showered and got ready – went down and had a light lunch then hit the streets.

It took me about 50 minutes maybe even less to get to the shops,looked around for a few hours and resisted all the food! Met the other girls at 4.30pm and watched a movie then headed back where we had a really yummy dinner then played Buzz until 10pm with everyone. I felt guilty that my calorie burn was low so I jumped on the treadmill and did 3km which still wasn’t enough. My lightest day for calorie burning today which isn’t great so have decided to put more effort in tomorrow when it’s actually our day off. I feel like I have started to lose weight as when I was running this morning my pants kept falling down and during the week I threw away my old comfy favourites as they were falling down as well. I bought four pair with me so I’m down to two pair – lets hope they get to big although that would be wishful thinking as they are skin tight ones.

Thanks for all the emails guys and to Janet from Michigan for all your kind words in the comments – keep those comments up guys – I love reading them
