So firstly I am late with my blog for yesterday due to my idiotic actions as I was too ill to type or even function as a human being. Don’t feel sorry for me as you will soon find out its all my own doing.

So the day started off as all other days, fasted cardio at the gym on the stairway to heaven. This time however I was not going straight back to work but back home as I was being picked up by a work colleague (who is one whole foot taller than me – he will appreciate this fact) as we were off on a client visit. I have breakfast before I go but feel really hungry so have my protein shake as well.

Quick toilet stop on our way down as I have the bladder the size of a pea and I decide to get a bag of sweet potato salted crisps with my black coffee. These are not on my plan, I am not sure why I bought them but I did. Anyway off we set.

Arrive at the destination and begin our work, then lunchtime arrives and my brain suddenly falls out of my backside. I decide that I will treat myself to some more carbs today because of the following reasons; my new diet starts on Wednesday and I will be practically starved to death, today is a change in my routine and for some reason I cant cope and finally it was mentioned that I shouldn’t get too lean as I am borderline Tone/Athletic and I want to stay in the Toned category. Can I point out that these are not good excuses, but as I thought about them I became very excited like a small child at Christmas at the possibilities of food I could eat. Needless to say I binged, not on a massive scale but I binged on things like sticky buns (which I practically inhaled), sweets and chocolate. At the time I felt great, probably due to the vat of sugar pulsing round my body.

When I got home I soon started to change my mind. I had to go to bed as my stomach had swollen that much I couldn’t stand up and the pains were unbelievable. The effort it took to prep my meals for the next day was phenomenal due to the pain and I had to go straight back to bed. I took pictures of my swollen stomach to remind myself of how I looked and the pain I was in if I ever think about doing this ever again (I wil not subject you to these pictures). I know it happens but the disgust, pain and set back is not worth it. I confessed to my coach and am now confessing to the world – its not clever and its not smart. Anyone in prep reading and this thinking about having a sneaky chocolate bar, DONT. You wont be able to control yourself and then 10 million chocolate bars later will be wishing that you never had the first one.

So all in all a crap day due to me being a total idiot and eating stuff which I shouldn’t on an excessive level.
