09 May 2013 – Happy Birthday

the first thought that entered my head this morning was “oh shit, not enough time for the gym”. then I realised that I was heading in later than usual today, so I could be at home to see my son open pressies for his 4th birthday. phew!

the row itself was “leisurely”, but eased the twinges and stiffness that had set in after yesterday’s run. thoroughly enjoyed it, and there was a bonus cherry on top as well, which was…

before doing any exercise, I stepped on the scales and weighed in at 600g less than last week. So I think the switch to Lite n Easy for weekday brekkie and lunch is doing its job.

a work colleague actually commented this morning that I looked particularly “chipper”. I think that’s down to a good morning at the gym, and the joy of seeing a 4 year old getting incredibly excited about his birthday!
