Just write it off!

Well let's just say this week has been a total write-off. After post-festival depression, being manically busy at work, and feeling under the weather I haven't visited the gym, or any kind of exercise dvd once.

I was doing well so far as food, and was still tracking everything, until Friday when I went out for lunch AND tea, and drank quiiiiite a few glasses of pinot. Ah well, it's the bank holiday and I was catching up with some friends so decided to cut loose a bit. Then yesterday I went out in Manchester with a friend to look for a costume for a fancy dress party and ended up going to Nando's for tea, then at the party last nigh the alcohol was floooooowing :) (I went as Satan to the party btw....it was an 'S' theme).

So anyway, I'm feeling rough today - not just the hangover but I have a really sore thoat so I'm just going to kick back today and try and get myself feeling better. As soon as the sore throat bogs off I will be finally starting the 30 day shred and getting back down the gym. In the meantime I am back to tracking points everyday (just put my lunch points in). Oh and no more alcohol for a good while now! :)

Pardon? Sorry? Eh? Que? These are the things I have been saying for the past couple of days as my cold has now transfered to my ears, yay me. I haven't been able to go to the gym as I feel dizzy stood still...so that has been niggling me as I start to get restless if I can't work out.

Any way, moving on (as I am so fed up with being ill and talking about it) I went for some much needed retail therapy yesterday and my bags were so heavy my back and shoulders were really hurting - it felt just like a gym workout! My shoulders are killing me today but I weighed myself this morning and i've lost 2lbs, whooop! So i'm on track for my V goal - just need another 4lb to shift within the next two weeks.

I had a splurge in Primarni (you just have to) then got some boots for V Festival, and a couple of tops from H&M. On a side note I can't wait for H&M to go online in September, they are so good on the value/quality front! Gave me a taster for my shopping trip treat for goal..
