Tone Up Tuesday

Morning! How is everyone today? I am feeling good, had a great start, then a small crumble but am feeling better now! 

Yesterday's workout was great... did it yesterday evening when I got home and it really showed me a) how weak I am and b) how much of my body I don't actually use...even with running! Needless to say I am in pain this morning! 

Pleased to say that I got up nice and early and did my Tuesday workout, Tuesday's and Friday's are arm days... it was really good this morning but I discovered I need to get some heavier weights... the weights I have, I bought about 2 years ago and are 1kg... although I still felt it today I know I should have much heavier weights..so this morning I ordered a set of 4kg weights and they should be with me in the next few days. 


Now normally on a Tuesday I will also do 20mins of skipping but at the moment I don't have a skipping rope (again on order and should be with me in the next few days) so I did both the videos twice to make up for the lack of skipping. 

I was feeling great after my morning workout and am really positive that once I have some heavier weights I will really see the difference adding weights will make to my body. After a quick shower it was time to get dressed for the day - if only we could wear sports gear to work!- and this is where I had my crumble, since losing weight I have taken much greater care of my appearance and have found a real love for clothes, the trouble is that my wardrobe (read finances) can't keep up with my growing love and I am slowly having to transform my wardrobe - at the moment it's still in the starting phase so quite often I look at my wardrobe and just have a little moment as I hate everything that's in there. The clothes that are there aren't a reflection of me anymore so I don't want to wear them and feel uncomfortable in them. However my other problem is that I don't want to buy lots of clothes and then them not fit anymore because they get too big...which is a problem I have had in the past.. the Man does try and understand but realistically he doesn't get it. However he has said he will treat me to a quick trip down to good old Primarni (Primark)  just to get a few things.... Primark obviously isn't my shop of choice but it's good for a wardrobe that changes alot like mine does! 

Err.....LOVE it!
