Banging For Vegas - Day 20 - Gabby's Blog

Hi guys that's me just under 3 weeks in to the new regime and its going well!

I've lost another 2 pounds this week and I can def start to see changes in my body, especially my tummy and arms.

The sessions this week have been quite long and hard but I’m trying to lift heavier weights as the weeks are progressing. The plyo sessions are always awful and last night was no exception. 5 weeks to go before Vegas so if I can continue at this pace I should def reach my target of a stone, so the sequin shorts are still in sight!

I had a couple of compliments off friends at work this morning so that's always a good motivation. I’m going to ramp up the cardio next week as I’m finishing up work today so hopefully that should speed up the weight loss a little bit.
Speak next week!

Another great week from Gabs.  I’ll second the awfulness of the plyo session we did last night.  Close to vomit a couple of times!  But we dug deep and suffered together, now that’s friendship J

I have definitely started to see some changes in her body as I blogged.  Everything is moving in the right direction at a good pace.  She is a great example of what can be achieved through the right workouts and nutrition.  Only one cardio session again this week and my spy’s tell me she was a naughty little minx on Sunday with her nutrition but look, like I said before, cheats are ok.  They matter less when you are consistently following a balanced nutrition plan and training programme.

I feel a little like the fun police and sure Gabs wants to kick me at times when I’m giving her shit but so happy to see her doing so well.  Her strength is improving each session and I’m sure she is even surprising herself when she is pushed to try a couple of kgs heavier and smashes the reps out.  I'm pushing her because I believe in her abilities so I hope you don't hate me friend.....

I’d be happy if next week she only did two or three HIIT session.  I don’t believe at this stage the cardio is required if the nutrition is on point.  I know Gabby is keen to speed things up but this is a learning curve and if more than a couple of lbs comes off a week, it ain't fat that's coming off, its muscle tissue.  WHICH IS THE LAST THING I WANT!!!

Well done my friend, SO PROUD!  Keep it up!!
