Hey 😀

I’m back!!!

It’s a PLL joke!   😉

Terrible week. Just terrible! Exhausting, intense, colorless and downright torturous. I’m so glad it’s over! But now I have a big task on my hands, don’t I? I have to update the blog and write about the whole week in one go. Well then, let me just dive in. No time to dillydally.

So… Where do I even begin? My 16-weeks-in picture maybe? Yeah, let’s just do that. 57.2 kg!! Is this amazing or what? 😀 😀 😀

Monday, Week 17, Day 1

I mentioned before I left that I started this week with a 3-day fruit detox diet. So Monday was Day 1. It went well. I had 2 meals (a combination of fruits and carrots) and 3L of water. It was a good day.

The meals

Meal 1: 1 mango, watermelon (1 wedge)

Meal 2: 1 apple, 1 plum, 5 strawberries, 1 carrot

Water: 3L

Gym

Day 1: Back, chest, abs

Steady rate cardio at speeds 8.5 and 9.5 for 2×10 minutes.

Tuesday, Week 17, Day 2

Day 2 of my fruit detox diet went BAD. I think because I’ve been having fuller meals lately, this fruit detox diet was harder on me than the previous two. It took a surreal amount of restraint and control for me to stick to my fruity meals and water. It was so bad that on Tuesday, when I went out to get water, I passed this pizza place and someone was having a tuna pizza. I even developed a craving for that! TUNA PIZZA! Who craves that? But yeah, in retrospect, it was funny. On the day, not so much! I paced my living room like a caged animal for over 30 minutes trying my hardest not to go back out there and have that damn pizza.

The meals

Meal 1: 1 mango, watermelon (1 wedge), 1 carrot, 1 apple

Meal 2: 1plum, 1 apple, 5 strawberries, 1 banana

Water: 2L

Gym

Day 2: Shoulders, biceps, triceps

Steady rate cardio at speed 8.8 and 9.5 for 2×10 minutes.

Wednesday, Week 17, Day 3

Day 3 went okay I guess. I was in over my head with stuff to do so I didn’t really have time to crave warm food.

The meals

Meal 1: 1 banana, 1 plum, 5 strawberries, 1 mango

Meal 2: 2 kiwis, 1 apple, ¼ of a honeydew melon

Water: 3L

Gym

Steady rate cardio at speeds 9.0 and 9.5 for 2×10 minutes.

Thursday, Week 17, Day 4

On Thursday I rewarded myself for my amazing restraint by cooking one of my favourite meals: Chicken and rice.

The meals

Meal 1: Chicken curry and rice (at 16 00)

Snack: 1 scoop of whey protein, ¼ of a honeydew melon, 1 apple (at 18 00)

Meal 2: Chicken curry and rice (at 20 00)

Gym

20 minutes steady rate cardio at speeds 8.8 and 9.5 for 2×10 minutes.

Friday, Week 17, Day 5

For the life of me, I can’t remember what happened on Friday worth mentioning. Thank God I actually wrote down what I ate everyday and what I did at the gym. I actually scribbled on a piece of paper but point is, this was some really good thinking. This post would have been a nightmare to write otherwise.

See..??

Anyway, moving on…

The meals

Meal 1: 3 chicken fajitas (at 16 00), a coke ZERO

Snack: ¼ of a honeydew melon, 1 mango (at 19 00)

Meal 2: Leftover chicken curry and rice (at 22 00)

Gym

20 minutes steady rate cardio at speed 9.0 and 9.5 for 2×10 minutes.

Saturday, Week 17, Day 6

What happened yesterday? Hmm… I guess nothing much. Nothing relevant to weight loss anyway!

The meals

Just had one meal. I wanted to eat out so I had Subway, the usual. A 6-inch Chicken Teriyaki sub with Oregano and Parmesan bread, lettuce, olives and jalapenos and Chipotle Southwest sauce.

And a coke ZERO.

Gym

20 minutes steady rate cardio at speed 9.0 and 9.5 for 2×10 minutes.

Sunday, Week 17, Day 7

And finally, Week 17, Day 7. That’s today! Ah, this was tiring.

The meals

Meal 1: Tuna pizza (at 16 00)

Snack: Watermelon (1 wedge), 1 apple, 1 carrot (at 18 00)

Meal 2: 1 scoop of whey protein (at 20 30)

Gym

Rest day.
