This weekend has been a big melting pot of exciting opportunities and possibilities. I know I'll have trouble sleeping tonight with this stuff on my mind.
On Friday night WH had made a significant discovery relating to the personal stuff thats on the drawing board for us. Its HUGE!! We talked it over, and over and over. We went from "oh we cant do it" to "we're giving it our best shot". I wont reveal anything yet but all will be known after 9th June. The wait will kill me but in the meantime I must breathe, breathe and breathe some more.
On a personal level, I'm exploring an option that is exciting but scary too. My changed attitude has me thinking positively instead of repeatedly convincing myself that I cant possible do it because ......(insert any one of 1000 excuses). I'm seeking an expert opinion on the matter - and it may come back that "no its not feasible" but I'll be ok with that. At least I've looked into it properly and not just written it off beacuse of a lack of belief in myself.
So with two (major) things up in the air like this, winding down and switching off will be very hard to do. And I need my beauty sleep.
I had breakfast out with a couple of friends this morning and purposely chose the high fat option to cure an extremely bad bout of being clogged up. The ultra low carb approach is NOT a long term option if things dont move for a week - yep you read that right :-( As great as it was for dropping a decent bit of fat over a relatively short time, the morning oats / psyllium husks are back on the daily menu. Fingers crossed that the fat continues to melt off.
Actually how "wrong" is that statement??!! Fat melting off is not a product of good luck coming from crossing your fingers (duuuuh I'll just cross my fingers for the next 5 weeks and I'll be 5 kilos lighter at the end of it).
Consistently eating lean clean food in reasonable quantities + training with intensity and purpose + managing headspace and emotions + repeating those habits over and over = leaner and more toned Magda. Simple really.
And on that note, this genius is off to update CalKing LOL

Hi Magda, I haven't commented on your blog before, but I identify with the 'clogged up' feeling, especially going low carb. I found a product called Benefiber. It's tast free glug free and I add it to everything. Even though I eat heaps of veggies I still have the clogged up feeling. I put this in my coffee, my protein shakes my cooking. It's a matter of finding how much you need.
Sorry my first post was about this topic, but it is a serious problem for me.
Sorry, just saw what I posted. Will redefine .... It is taste free and glug free and doesn't give you the farts or a pain in the gut!
Thanks Essie. I already use a fibre supp but it helps to know of others that are also good.
:-) Magda
