Week 2: A Week of Highs and Lows

Week two of my six week challenge is done and dusted and I'm so glad to see the back of it! I did five classes this week, one a day since Wednesday and it has left me a broken woman!! Every single part of my body aches and I just want to sleep for days!!

During the week I got a bit disheartened because I was really struggling to keep up with some of the classes, as well as seeing absolutely no movement on the scales. It was so hard not to throw in the (sweaty) towel and say what's the point, this is getting me nowhere! But a few things have lifted my spirit, and it's those things that keep me going.

 First of all, my River Island sale delivery arrived and half of the clothes were too big! I'm kinda raging because some of the stuff was so nice and so cheap but I'm also delighted that I'm going down a size! As well as that, a few hours ago I bought a pair of my white Penneys jeans, in black, but in a size smaller!

It's so hard not to focus in on what the scales says, but seeing a difference in my clothes has really made this week bearable! The classes were as tough as hell and doing them for five days straight left me completely drained mentally and physically! I'm looking forward to taking a break from the gym tomorrow, but I'll be back on Tuesday to show that gym who's boss! 

Food wise I kept things similar to last week, lots of eggs, fish, chicken, fruit and veg. My favourite meal of the week had to be cajun salmon with sweet paprika (from Tiger) sweet potatoes with green beans & corn. So easy to make and so delicious!!

I'm ending this week on a high note and reminding myself that Rome wasn't built in a day! If you're putting the effort in, the results won't be too far behind :)
