Frankenpug

It's very rare that I look forward to coming into work, but today is one of those days when I'm glad to be in the office. Yesterday at home was quite stressful with Frankenpug Dolly and full o'beans Edie. By about 7pm I had a stonking headache and was in such a bad mood that I decided to bail on my planned evening run. Good news is that Dolly appears to much better today so we've gone back to work. Fingers crossed everything is ok when we get home this evening. The other reason I'm thankful for being at work is the recycled air. My hayfever has been unbearable the last few days, even the concoction of pills, nasal sprays and eye drops hasn't really helped much. But filtered air makes things bearable.

Reviewing yesterdays plans:

1. Drink 2 litres of Water a Day check
2. Eat 5 Fruit/Veg a day check - Banana, Red Pepper, Baby Spinach, Strawberries, Grapes, Tomato
3. Do Jane Fonda Abs workout every day check
4. Do Squats, Ballet Squats, Single Leg Lunges, Butt Raises, Thigh Master (!), Calf Raises, Push Ups every day (at least 20 of each) check - did the following:
30 x Squats
30 x Ballet Squats
30 x Single Leg Lunges (30 on each side)
10 Butt Raises + 10 second hold
20 Single Leg Butt Raises + 10 second hold (on each leg)
30 Calf Raises
40 x Thigh Master presses
20 x Man Push Ups

5. Run 2 Evenings in the Week. pending
6. Exercise at least 5 times. pending
7. Plan Food for the day. check

Pretty good going for the first day of the week. Am sure I can manage to get 6/7 greens today as I'll be going to the gym at lunchtime. As per my usual routine, planning for about 20 minutes cardio and 40 minutes weights. Our fabulous gym guy left rather abruptly at the end of last week, so we're probably going to have a series of shoddy temp's in for a while before they find a full time replacement. Hopefully it won't impact too much on what I do at the gym, just will probably mean there will be no Body Pump for a while longer.

Food for today:

Breakfast: 200ml Semi-Skimmed Milk Protein Shake, 30g Jumbo Oats, 1 tsp G&B Cocoa Powder, 2 tsp Sweetener, 150ml Skimmed Milk, 150ml Berocca.

Mid Morning Snack: Banana

Lunch: Baby Spinach, Grapes, Rice, Ham, Cheese, Pickle Salad & 200ml Skimmed Milk Protein Shake.

Mid Afternoon Snack: Grapes

Dinner: Chicken Curry
