    My water weight from my new exercise is not going away so I'll probably be heavy on Friday than in other days. I was hoping for a whoosh but it doesn't look like I'll have one. Major bummer.

    At least it's not fat ☺

    I could commit Lindt Bunny genocide but will have to settle for a PHD Dark Chocolate & Raspberry protein bar.

    Just checking in from a lovely sunny Vilnius... there is a an incredible amount of restaurants, bars and cafes to choose from here, so even though we’re doing loads of walking, I’m still not looking forward to weighing in when I get back !!!

    Hehe the bunnies definitely got me. Don't think I have met eating goals for over 2 weeks now. Oh well. Back to work Monday so hopefully back to routine etc.
    Had so much fun being off and trip to Brighton for all the food and cocktails. Followed by at home with all the food lol.
    Back on it tomorrow. Long run then food prep for the week.
    Hope everyone had a fab Easter!

    ace! I binge watched Santa Clarita diet season 2 and it was awesome!
    I ate KINDA too much food, but did my runs as per plan, so that was good.

    How's about you? how far are you rowing now? :D

    I need to watch that, loved the first series, watched the whole season whilst stuck at Stansted/flying.

    I got about 60km in last week. Did 10km yesterday in torrential rain and got my first hand blister thanks to wet gloves/rubbing against the oars.

    Yeah it's a good series, I've had little enough concentration to watch a whole lot lately. Just been watching either stuff I've seen before or stuff that requires very little brain power like Made in Chelsea ha

    Happy Hump Day - I have another NSV on the go today just had my new passport delivered over the weekend and when I took a look at it, the picture I have now, my face looks a lot slimmer than the one from 2008, despite me being a little lighter back then (was far more active in my work back then).

    Yes certainly is end of week, put a holiday in for tomorrow to have a productive at home day.

    How's your tracking going with the change of exercise logging?

    Hi there. You are not alone;) This morning, quick 9 minute body weight strength workout. Nine exercises one minute each. Only been doing it for a few weeks but it's still a challenge. I don't know if I will ever be able to do a full minute of burpees.

    at home work day? or at home life admin type day?

    tracking is ok, back to what it was for majority of my logging life hehe. Just overall I think I can sense I am losing motivation with it all. Life keeps 'getting in the way' so I need to re-focus on important things and try and decrease stresses. All the fun.

    How bout you? finding the 1 number easier?

    Haven't really got one number, I have turned the calorie adjustment off so not getting my steps pulling through and logging other exercise manually at 70% of what my watch is saying as not sure the rowing cals are that accurate, so will see where I am in 4 weeks. It's an endless psychological battle isn't it lol

    Oh and personal admin "sort my life out" day.
