Making 3 flavours of bite size pizza



9 weeks to go…single digits



The onset of Lucy’s second first birthday this week has seen me in an ultimate bake-fest as I prepare for a house full of guests to help us celebrate. 1 large choccy cake with 400g of 72% chocolate melted through it before being coated in lashings and lashings of dark ganache. I had about 1 Tablespoon of ganache….Damn!  Other than that, a good week (minus the weekend). My shoulder workout was probably one of the best I’ve ever done.  I think I can add more to my new leg workout though as I didn’t feel I did enough.

Next week my father in law is moving into our guest house for 4 months due to a job transfer, which means I wont be able to run while he is here as the guest house is right next to my studio and its not fair to wake him with my running. He will be flying back to Welly on the weekends so I can at least run some days.  To compensate, I have ordered a spin bike to keep my cardio up.

Weights/cardio last week was as follows:

Tuesday.  Food 100%.  Pre-brekky intervals at 13.3/6.  Trained back.                     



Strawberry Swirl Buttercakes & Passionfruit cookies



Wednesday. Food 100%.  Pre-brekky intervals at 13.5/6. Chest & Biceps.  Ordered a spin bike today!

Thursday.  Food 99%  (ganache).  Walk to town and home again.  Legs day. My bike arrived – that was fast...thanks Elite Fitness!

Friday.  Food 100%. Pre-brekky intervals at 13.7/6.  Shoulders/Tris; excellent workout!

Saturday.  Food 50%. Pre-brekky intervals at 13.9/6. Its Lucys Party day today! Had a good breakfast and dinner, the rest was a mess as I picked at pikelets, bite size pizzas, a small cup cake (or was it 2?) and a piece of cake.

Sunday.  Mothers day allowed me a sleep and a rest day.  Food 60%.  The leftovers got to me.  Soooo Naughty! 

Monday. No cardio today. Trained back and abs and pushed (and pulled) some good weight.



The birthday girl



We have no social occasions for the next few months thank goodness!  Now I have promised myself I WILL STICK TO MY NUTRITION PLAN!   

This week…start putting my routine together, and practice posing over and over again.
