I cant believe I'm writing this post already like whatttt? where did them two months go? I cant deal. I wish they went slower so I could lose more haha.
I know I said Id write a blog post half way through the 8 week challenge but been completely honest I wasn't giving it my all. My head wasn't in it 100% it was only on the 4th week when me and my 2 friends booked Ibiza for next summer I had to give myself the 'Pull yourself together' talk. I've went away every summer with my friends since I was 17 and I'd never let having a bit of weight on me stop me. (Nobody should) But Ibiza? STOP! that's a whole different ball game haha.
I decided to start personal training, I've been going to the gym for a year now so I knew I needed to step it up because my body was getting too used to the classes and it needed a shock. Ive done personal training once a week for the last month on top of going to the 8 week challenge every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Not gonna lie the personal training wasn't easy but its definitely
worth it. I started to go jogging too on Tuesday's when I could so to be fair in the exercise area i was trying my best.
However you know the famous saying 'Abs are made in the kitchen'. My diet wasn't great, Monday to Friday ye it was brilliant but the weekends it wasn't. I'm constantly torn between wanting to be good and staying in but then I feel sorry for myself and say to myself ah you re only 22 go out and enjoy yourself! It's not even the drink that's the bad part it's coming home drunk and deciding ye wanna make a crisp sambo you wake up to next morning to your Ma screaming about the crumbs on the stairs haha and not forgetting getting counting down the hours til the curry shop opens at 5 the next day lets be honest we've all been there. The struggle is real.
Ive come to terms that I'm always going to have watch what I eat so I just need to learn how to balance it out.
Anyhow I didn't do too bad I'm actually happy with my results even though I didn't do amazing it just means I'm one step closer to my goals and that's what it's all about baby steps ☺️
I lost 6 pounds. I lost 5 Cm's from my stomach, 2 cms from my waist and thighs and 1 and a half from my arms.
Here is my before and after picture.
