Now I know what it feels like to be a Junkie
Bring back the bloggy goodness. Am quite aware of how slack I have been with updating my blog, however remain comforted by the fact that I'm not as slack at it as bloody Raftis.
So, lately;
Have entered a caffeine reduced existence. I'm a BIG coffee drinker, about 7 or 8 cups a day, maybe more. Cannot fathom a world in which I did not/could not drink coffee on a daily basis, however have been increasingly aware of the part this may be playing in my quest for the body beautiful (or at least a body better than the one I've got now). It's really not good shit when drunk in such quantities as I have become accustomed to. So now, 9 days on of being restricted to 2 cups a day, I have finally overcome the nausea (and subsequent spewing), sweating, dizziness and, for the most part, headaches. I am sleeping like a baby and not getting all comatose after having a caffeine hit. Mind you, I'm still on decaf which is a placebo of sorts, but will wean myself off that shortly.
Have firmly re-entrenched my gym routine. The other week I clocked up 3 Pump classes, 3 sessions of cardio and a Body Balance class in which I'm pretty sure I made everyone in the class aware that I was a completely unco fuck. I mean, I can leg press about 120kg no worries, but I cannot stand on one of my legs for any extended period of time. Which, is unfortunately one of the requirements of the body balance class. Although I have vowed to keep going until I get good at it, I must say the highlight of the whole ordeal for me was at the end when you spend about 10 minutes with the lights out and candles lit, doing some dreamy meditation to a soundtrack of Native American windchimes (or something….) and trying not to fall asleep. One bloke did, and his snores made me giggle. Oh, that and the farting that seemed to be occurring around the room. There's relaxing, and then there's relaxing…..
Potential new boy. Although as I am having lunch with Vyner tomorrow to update her on the goss, I will refrain from saying any more.
I realise I have yet to complete my birthday goal list, and am determined to do so very shortly.
