Today is now a high carb day by default!  I have been really good with my diet up until now.  I brought a packet of hot cross buns……..and they are now gone!  I did enjoy them however, and have trained my butt off today so I don’t feel that bad.

I am also 25 weeks out still with some good gains (and fat losses) so far.  Anyway, its good to give into your little cravings now and again, isn’t it?!

Its Easter Friday!  I’m not concerned at all about overindulging with eggs.  My partner is in Afghanistan and I am home alone (but not lonely) with my dog, 3 cats and 2 birds. i was going to go home to visit my parents and nephews (4 hours drive) but decided against it.  This way I have the chance to focus on my good clean nutrition and training - and maybe a big "spring clean" even though its Autum here in Oz (LOL!)

I have my trusty 12 week diet plan that’s working a dream - down to 18.8%BF now.  Can’t wait to get my next pinch test.  My clothes are falling off me and I feel like my body is the way it was 8 weeks out from my last competition.  I have learnt so much since my last comp that as I now have a longer prep…. i am so excited to get up on stage this year. is that sad?????
For the next 2 weeks diet (week 7 &   we go back to the week 1 & 2 diet.

:) happy Easter to all

finally got time to post…… Easter Friday public holiday so trying to keep myself away from chocolate.  had a bad dinner night last night……. but haven’t had too many of them since i started this diet (Thanks soooooooo much bridgett for posting this on BB.com) I won’t tell u what I had….. but i did actually enjoy it.

Training is going ok…. I teach (1) BODYPUMP class and (5) RPM classes a week at the moment, plus I participate in BODYCOMBAT and try to get 3 weights sessions per week in.  Sunday is now called "Satan’s Sunday Sessions from Hell" cos I smash myself, but love it.  I will start posting these - if I have the energy to type.  last week my arms were dead!  I am finding these big hard heavy sessions are doing wonders.

as i said diet is good - here is last fortnights diet:
