Well I have clearly lost the plot!

I woke up at 5am this morning and head off to the gym. This morning I did 15 minutes on the cross trainer, 15 minutes on the treadmill, 10 minutes on the stair master and finished with 10 minutes on the bike.

I was intended to do a full 15 minutes of interval running like I have the last few days but after 10 minutes I had to pull up stumps and finish the last 5 minutes walking at incline 20 to keep my heart rate up. Why did I have to stop my jog? I was physically in pain and discomfort, not from the running and not from being unfit but in fact physical pain from the excess skin on my belly jiggling and bouncing around and also friction and chaffing again from excess skin movements from my bra.

My body is holding up to the exercise and how hard I am pushing myself but it’s unfortunately arguing and biting back at me from an excess skin viewpoint.

While my apron (that is contained in my knickers) is kept under control in my compression gym pants the excess skin and jiggle factor between my pants line and under my bra poses massive problems that I need to find a solution for if I want to continue with my high intensity cardio!

I then head home after a shortened cardio session to quickly get ready for work and head off to do a work presentation at the Royal Adelaide Hospital. This is when I realised that I had lost the plot…once I was in the city nearly 1 & 1/2 hours earlier than I normally start work to realise I had my dates wrong and I was in fact two months early for the presentation!

So re-directed myself back to the office getting myself a skinny latte on the way. It was on the way to work that I looked at my work security pass and decided in the new year I may strategically need to “lose” my pass and get a replacement as it looks like I have stolen someone else’s pass!
