Why do you keep mentioning ''planning session''?
I will be running the Wednesday 7am EliteFemales Session, a 8:1 Group PT session for females, focussing on Body Composition and Fat Loss. I am really excited and flattered about being asked to do this, hence why I have been spending a lot of time thinking about the type of sessions I want to run and how best to structure them. In the run up to the opening, I will have to share my ideas and reasoning's with Ben and James, and even put them through their paces in one of my sessions!
I am not as experienced as the other EBW Coaches which is why I will coach alongside them to start. My passion for training and the knowledge I have gained after the last three years in a gym environment, and of the EBW business, has led Ben and James to offer me this opportunity. I will work under strict guidance from them both, receiving intensive coaching and on-going training in all areas.It goes hand in hand with my want to motivate and inspire others too. When I train in a group environment, I always do my best to be on hand with words of encouragement or congratulations when someone PBs or just simply completes something they thought they couldn't. I have had positive feedback from other clients about my positive energy in sessions, so this new challenge is a natural progression really!
Coupled with this, the new premises gives me the opportunity to reignite a previous passion of mine - Sports Therapy. I qualified as a Sports Therapist in 2010 and although I don't run a business from it, I am always on hand for friends and family should they need a quick treatment! So watch this space....
I have already devised the first four weeks of sessions, but plan to do a few more to keep the variety in there. The session is already nearly full and I can't wait to train this awesome bunch of ladies and to meet a few new faces! So that's the big news out of the way... what else is new?
Um so I have discovered that I should certainly, most definitely not eat PIZZA! (Oh no, you poor little Italian, now what will you eat?!) Oh wow, let me explain....
So Saturday night we were invited out for dinner for another EBW celebration (think there will be a few of these over the next few weeks!) and the eatery of choice was a popular Pizzeria. I opted for a goats cheese, beetroot, spinach and pesto creation, sounded yummy and healthy, obviously ;) and I surprisingly managed to eat it all....I must admit, I regretted eating it as soon as I had finished...yep, there was my food baby tummy poking over my jeans.... and to make matters worse, when I woke up on Sunday morning, I felt as though I had gone 10 rounds with Tyson, my head has never hurt so much, ever! Just opening my eyes was a struggle and my whole body ached, although the rest of me was fine...Very strange. Two ibuprofen and a glass of water later, I was on the mend.

| No wheat for me..! |
Having no sickness or cold symptoms, James and I concluded it must've been the pizza the night before, and thinking about it, it seems the most logical explanation - I should avoid wheat from here on in - I already knew it was enemy. My body just needed to remind me that I shouldn't subject it to wheat again... ah well, I'm only half Italian anyway... ;)
ED Progress
Day 22, 23 and 24
No reintroductions for these 3 days to get over the weekend, back to clean ED - my favourite meal this week was Jerk Salmon Fillet and Asparagus
Day 25 - Beef
Today I finally reintroduced Beef! I found a Sri Lankan Curry recipe online and tried my hand at it. It was very hot but so yummy! Served with Jasmine Rice, it was a winner with James too!
Day 26 - Chicken
Admittedly, my food was pretty rubbish this day, well, the times in which I ate were..! (The restaurant in Ikea being closed put a spanner in the works..!) I did however find a really yummy Nut and Bean salad in Marks and Spencer and had this with some chicken breast. I didn't eat a lot of the chicken as it wasn't very nice, so I didn't notice a reaction to this.
Day 27 - Wheat
Ha - well this debacle is explained above!
Day 28 - Mushrooms
I visited Georgie and Jonah for breakfast on Sunday morning and as I had already had a positive reaction to Bacon and Eggs, I added mushrooms in today - and no noticeable reaction to them
So that's the first 4 weeks of ED done! I have to say, after this weekend, I do not want to share any photos just yet! But I will continue with this as I need to be in tip top shape for when my class starts! I won't continue to update you on it however, I will post about it if something significant happens!
Anyway, I hope you all have a great week, I think I am going to get a few more yoga sessions in this week - I use an app called All In Yoga, and it is really helpful and informative. I especially like the messages you get after a session - some say cheesy, I say helpful and enlightening
