Week 2 of the 12wbt "challenge", crazy things to report. On the downside, I was being attacked by headaches at 3.30pm for about 4 days. The reason? Unknown but apparently, this happened to many girls in the 12wbt program. Maybe it's our bodies craving for sugar, fat and all those evil yummy things....like...somebody said Coke??? I have not had one for 2 weeks!!! Yay! (but I did have a sip of Sprite and didn't taste too good).
Anyhow, I have followed the diet as hard as I could, but of course, mixing and matching, modifying, updating, adapting... Adding Peruvian condiments like "Aji panca" instead of chilli (I hate chilli), avoiding beans at night and onions (not good for me). The good thing is that there is one diet-free night for a treat meal and one day free of exercise. But even if I wanted to be naughty with the diet, I was invited to a friend's b'day and she happens to have a veggie garden. The result? One amazing tasty healthy meal!
So the week progressed with 'weight-in' day and I realized that I am 200 grams heavier that the end of week 1 (when i was 800 grams lighter)... but the good news, according to my scale, is that those 200 g are pure muscle! WHAT!!!! So quickly? I hope that thing is accurate, but even if it is not +/- 100g, I got 100g of muscle to show for. I am happy!
...and happier, today, I started my watercolour painting again. I am not good at them, but I love painting, and I love beginning something and finishing it at one go. So today, I met Ray Barnett, famous watercolourist and this is what I did .
He said I got guts to do it.... I wonder if that means it looks great, it is different or it looks horrible. I like it though, I find it a bit dirty or very dirty for a watercolour, but hey, I haven't painted for like 2 or 3 years.... so, ...alright, no EXCUSES.
Tomorrow, I hope I have the same painting drive to tackle PhD data entry. I will think 'watercolours are waiting for you on Thursday', which happens to be MY weight-in day.
C'est la... until next time....:)
