Round 3 2013. Here We Go!

What a huge two weeks it has been since I have posted.  Looking back, it just seems like a big blurry whirlwind of time.

There was training on a new system at work (yes, even though we're out the door shortly), a job interview for an internal role at work (which is full time, so not practical),  2 kids sick with gastro, and another with a double ear infection, and in amongst all this was all the eating & wine drinking I could muster to keep me sane.

I delved into the dark depths of emotional eating, even though I realised this is what I've been doing for the last 3 months.  And how do I feel coming out at the other end of it?  Like shit.

A bottle of wine, or two, or three will not relieve my stress when the kids are all in bed.  It will however cause me to eat anything I can get my hands on.  It will cause me to have a terrible sleep similar to that of an insomniac where I will lay awake during the night for hours on end.  It will cause me to feel like shit in the morning, to not eat breakfast because I am too full from all the crap I've eaten the night before, and to be grumpy & snappy with the kids, and not want to exercise or eat well.

At the end of the last round I weighed in at 102.8kgs.  And this morning?  A shocking 107.7kgs.

WTF????????

So, it's time to get back to basics.  I've written out my exercise plan for the rest of the month.  I start a monthly membership at the gym today.  I am going to follow the food plan as much as possible.  I am going to count every calorie that goes into my mouth.

Draft of Exercise plan for August

And I will weigh below 90kgs at the end of this round.

Of course our impending trip to Bali is a little concerning, but Greg & I went to Bali last year whilst on the program & we both did really well at keeping up with the exercise & watching our food.  We CAN keep on track whilst on holidays.

Onwards & downwards.....
