Tea, and unravelling the secrets of the Universe

[weetamclan]

Day 8

Last week was really a warm up... a gentle transition from festive Christmas to gloomy January. Sigh...

Grub

Flapjack (this time it was my turn to forget smoothies )
Spelt crackers and hummus
3 raw trailmix cookies
Oktoberfest burger, sweet potato fries and salad
Muchos tea-os

Exercise

Weight section A from Busy Gym workout

Hokay. My wrist held out in the gym (just!) Couldn't do dips and pushups were a bit of a laugh, but it's not hurting more than it did before the gym, so hopefully I'm out of the woods. It was the first time in over a month I'd done any upper body work! Need to get my guns pumped up again

I can proudly report I've not been snacking after tea and my post work snacks have all been above board. Hooray!

Any minute now those scales will shift.

I hear you on the "warm up" week. That's what last week was for me (do I sound convincing - I'm trying to convince myself here! ).

And what exactly did you do to your wrist? I noticed in your last post you complained of it.

Good work on the 'no snacking after tea'. Eventually it will become the norm for you.

Carob and seed bar.. now that sounds bloody great.. I will have to MacGoogle it.. and Chocolate Black Tea..that sounds kinda strange and yum all at the same time. Good work on the snackies.. I've found myself eating crap snacks after lunch so I have to get some raw snacks happening. I just opened 300g of almonds last night so tomoz will be raw snacks to save the day .. stay with it.. and watch that wrist.. sounds a bit nasty. Have you had it seen to?

No idea what I did to my wrist... it just started to hurt really bad! Seems to be finally on the mend though

mmm .. ginger.. good one!! So do you grate some fresh ginger..? It all sounds good. I've saved it into my evernote account. I'd probably add some carob powder, only because I still have buckets of pods..so.. what's the tea of the week? p.s hill sprints.. good for you!!
