My first day

So, my first day as an official bootcamper is now over.... my legs are like jelly and I feel like I've smoked 2 packs of cigs buttttttt I'm alive nonetheless 0)

My day started off with a protein shake and 1 pint of water followed a few hours later by an apple and a low fat fruit yogurt.  My lunch was a chicken fillet with mixed lettuce salad and a vingarette dressing which it has to be said I was NOT likin' the look of one bit but surprisingly tasty.  My dindins was a very tasty, very large chicken fajita which I wouldn't have touched before today as I'm not a very adventureous person when it comes to food but I have decided to do everything on my diet sheet even if it means consuming green peppers, avocados, courgettes and the likes (oh my).

So, at 6.45pm I headed to the park for my bootcamp meeting at 7pm. When I arrived I couldn't see any groups jogging around the field being shouted out by army like officers or anybody chanting like soldiers doing a sound off so I walked around the field and eventually I spotted 1 girl and 1 guy who looked like they were pretty serious (the sight of boxing gloves and punch pads kinda gave that assumption strenght).... Considering it was a bank holiday, there was just me, a girl called Megan and our instructor and I was dropped in at the deep end.

Running has never been my forte so to run up and down to 'warm up' was startling and breathtaking, literally. :0)  But then I got to punch and run some more and step by step it was tough but it was alot of fun too.  There was skipping (which was absolutely hilarious, I haven't skipped since I was about 7 and now that I have boobs and hips and an ass that I try so hard to keep under some form of control 7 days a week all the days of my adult life!!!!, skipping is truely not the way to achieve that).  The instructor was very encouraging though which was brilliant and Megan was great to workout with as she's this little slip of a thing who is only in secondary school and has the fitness level of about 10 adults put together.

I can't feel my legs right now.  My arms feel like they're about to drop off at any time and yep, my lungs are definitely not where they should be but I'm looking forward to my next class and all the days in between as I'm now, offiically, making my change.
