Where’d the weekend go?!
Even though it was 4 days long it still seemed to go so fast!
On Thursday I went straight from work to Ross and got weighed in. my weight had gone up slightly but Ross’ fancy scales said that I had lost fat and gained muscle so he was happy with that! I had a super lazy evening afterwards, I just got in to bed and watched Community on Netflix!
On Friday I tried to have a day of putting stuff on eBay because it was free listing. I didn’t manage to get much done though, by the time I had sorted the flat out a bit and gone through my clothes to pull out what to sell I didn’t have much time to actually list stuff! In the evening I met up with Paul for a Nandos and then we went to watch ‘Get Hard’ at the cinema, I wasn’t super excited about watching it but I liked it and it made me laugh quite a lot! When we got home we got to make a sexy time which was awesome!
On Saturday we had quite a lazy day. The weather was pretty horrible! I had to go to the bank and change my name which I’d been putting off doing for ages! Then I had to go and pick up my wedding dress from the shop that had been trying to sell it, they had had it for 3 months and hadn’t managed to sell it which was a bit disappointing! But they said because the length is quite unusual and it’s quite a small size they didn’t have too much interest in it. I’m not really sure what to do with it now! I might try and sell it on eBay but it does have a little bit of a stain on the front and the hook and eye at the top of the dress is broken so I’m not sure if it’s worth it. It would be a massive pain to post… I could maybe try local pick up on gumtree instead but it takes up so much room in my flat I’m kind of tempted just to charity shop it to get rid of it!
On Saturday evening Paul made us fajitas and we watched the second inbetweeners film with Drew and Robyn, and then when they went to bed Paul and I watched ‘Hector and the Search for Happiness’. I had really wanted to watch it because it’s Simon Pegg but I kind of struggled with it a bit… I don’t know if maybe just wasn’t in the right mood. After the film finished Paul asked me to play a game of heads up with him and we ended up playing it for over an hour! It was so much fun, we were both in hysterics, it made me really appreciate how awesome he is to hang out with!
On Sunday we went to Lynnie’s for the traditional Easter Sunday get together. It was really lovely to see everyone. Casper is just the cutest, chubbiest little toddler ever! I didn’t take any photos which is odd for me! We spent most of the day playing heads up and solitaire.
Ooh actually I did take these lol!
Sunday evening we tried to watch Goodfellas but only got halfway through and then went to bed.
On Monday I tried to be productive, I tidied the flat and did some washing in the morning and then went to tesco and did my grocery shop. When I got back Paul had brought his bikes over for us to go for a cycle. We cycled along the beach front to Sandbanks, we across to Studland on the ferry and then cycled to a pub and had a pub lunch! It was really beautiful weather and it was mostly really fun, there was one hill after the ferry that made me feel like I might die but the views were amazing. I don’t think I ever would have thought of doing it by myself so I’m really lucky that I have Paul to drag me out to do fun stuff! I wore my heart rate monitor and it said we cycled 32km and burnt nearly 1200 calories!

On Monday evening we had a curry and watched Zombieland which I love!
Although I had a lovely long weekend I feel like I was grumpy or upset for a lot of it. It’s really stupid but I just feel kind overwhelmed and I didn’t get to do a lot of the stuff that I wanted to get done over the weekend. I love hanging out with Paul but when he’s here I don’t really feel like I can do stuff like ebaying cos it feels like I’m wasting my time with him but then I end up stressing out about not getting stuff done and then I end up being all moody and wasting my time with him anyway. Like I absolutely loved our cycle but it meant that I didn’t get to do my food prep for the week again or get any more stuff on eBay. I could have listed up to 100 things over the long weekend for free and I only managed 14! And I really need to do it because all this stuff is cluttering up my flat and I also really need the money!
And as much as I’m loving the exercising I feel like I am constantly worn out! I know it’s probably my own fault for not sticking to my food plan properly but I kind of feel like all I have the energy to do at the moment is work and exercise and then when it gets to the weekend I have this massive to do list that I never manage to get done! If I could work out a way to have more time and energy it would be awesome! And it’s so stupid because I have NO responsibilities and I still can’t get my shit together! It’s frustrating!
Last night I went to see Ross and he got me to do 100 reps each of cable chest press, lat pull downs, hack squats, shoulder raises, bicep curls and tricep push downs. It was SO hard!! But good, I’m kind of proud that I did it lol, and Ross said that he was impressed with how I got on with it!
