BeckieA’s BodyBlog

Well folks I’m finally back at the gym after a substantial break due to illness. I’ve had to change my diet quite radically and am no longer allowed any artificial sweeteners,caffeine,MSG or red meat because these are triggers for my gut condition. Even though this is a bit of a bummer,it has given me the opportunity to try out some new foods-quinoa and rice spaghetti,couscous just to name a couple. And of course I have gone back to my favorite bread-spelt-it is expensive but I don’t each that much of it so a whole loaf lasts me 3 weeks!

As far as training goes,I’m doing full body workouts for at least the next 6 weeks to get my body used to lifting weights again. I had a bit of dOMS the first week I went back but now it seems to have dissipated as my body has adjusted quite quickly-good thing that muscle memory!
