Day 28...... http://mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

I always feel a bit drained and grumpy on my second low carb day but I am looking forward to my fruit and yoghurt for breakfast again tomorrow thats gets me through.

I am really looking forward to our final weigh in (well final of the 30lb in 30 day challenge) I really want to compare my before and after photos I really cant believe it truly amazing everyone keeps commenting on my weight loss and asking how I have managed it I have sent so many people to Dax's website http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

I am going away this weekend on a boys golfing trip thankfully it is after the challenge is over I am going to enjoy myself but not overindulge I will not be drinking any beer!! and then come monday it will be straight back into the exercise and Elimination Diet. I will be so disappointed if I put even 1lb on so I will be very strict with myself!!

Day 27... http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

All my clothes are far too big for me amazing!!! I am so pleased although I look ridiculous everything is just hanging off me good job Sarah has hit the sales I need a whole new wardrobe!!! I am pretty sure I will need 34"waist trousers now as my 36" are like clown pants lol!! I couldn't tell you how long it has been since I have been this size I am astounded by how much my body has changed.

I really want to lose another stone I can't imagine what I will look like then I will have to keep up my blog to keep me on track I can't let all this hard work go to waste!!

Day 26 http://mylondonpersonaltrainer.com/

Fasting day again it is getting easier but I am always so ready for my dinner, steak, fried egg and corn on the cob mmm.

New workouts done yesterday forgot to tell you about those wow fun check them out on youtube under Dax moy body weight workouts try them if you dare!!!!!!!! lol. Really tough I really thought I was much fitter and stronger but wow they will definately take some mastering.

I am going to really try not to weigh or measure myself now until the end I really want to drop the 3lb to get me under 15st although obviously more than that would be amazing. Right off to do my meltdown now and give it all I've got!!! ;)

Day 25..... http://mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

I feel a lot better today, especially this afternoon I think the carbs definately affect my moods although its probably psychological lol!

Weigh in disappointing but not unexpected no weight loss this time not really sure why but will re-assess my portion sizes and carry on. Only 5 days to go I must shed that annoying 3lb to get me under 15 stone time to really work hard and find extra effort for my workouts make sure I eat on time and not too much watch this space lol!!! ;)

Day 24...... 30lb in 30 days http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

A bit of a low energy day today really struggling not felt well at all, very achey tired etc. Probably not helped by the rugby training last night. I managed to lose my wedding ring during training it must be because of all the weight I've lost!! so had a terrible night sleep worrying about it. This morning I spent 3 hours on the rugby pitch with a metal detector not the best way to start the day, and I didn't find it either so I guess thats why I am feeling down :(

Had a prawn stir fry for dinner tonight and I really enjoyed it I have been struggling a bit for new meal ideas and tend to stick to the same ones which gets a bit boring.

Looking foorward to carb day tomorrow have got my strawberries and greek yoghurt ready!! Its also weigh in day but I am not so optimistic this time so any loss will be great. Its not that I haven't stuck to the plan but just perhaps because I feel a bit low. Lets see what tomorrow brings!! ;)

Day 23...... 30lb in 30 days challenge http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

What a way to start the day meltdown at 6.30am I think it is my least favourite workout but I always feel good after. I have got rugby training again tonight which I am looking forward to.

I really enjoyed my dinner tonight pan fried salmon fillet on wilted spinach even better because it was ready when I walked through the door after work! ;)

Its hard to believe that this time next week the challenge will be over well the official one I will still be carrying on myself until I reach my goal weight.

Day 22......... Dax Moy lose 30lb in 30 days http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

Pretty good day today hungry by tea time but found it fine again not hungry at all during the day its more that eating is a habit lol! Drank my water and some of the special diuretic water ;) for dinner I had lemon garlic chicken with fried cabbage and bacon mmm love it.

2 workouts done just 1 to go will do that as soon as I finish writing this looking forward to trying a new workout Dax has been working on sounds intruiging????

Weigh in day again today lost another 3lb which takes me to a stone I am so pleased.

8 days to go am really giving it my all really want to see how much more I can lose!!!

Day 21.... http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com/

Mmmm love my carb days fruit and yoghurt for breakfast, trout and new potatoes for lunch and my old faithful chicken curry with brown rice for dinner with snacks of ham and eggs, ready for fasting again tomorrow.

Looking forward to weighing in and measuring again tomorrow I am hoping to have lost more weight and inches I do feel as though I have so fingers crossed!

I have felt very tired and lethargic today so have had a lazy day, I have still done all my workouts but managed to get them all done before it got too late. I also managed to sneak in a quick nap this afternoon which definately helped.

I have decided to post some more pictures as someone requested I can definately see a difference so its spurred me on I hope it does the same for others.

Day 20 of 30-in-30 challenge.... http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

All going well not much new to report, I am enjoying the workouts and improving my reps/times etc flexibility noticibly better. We have now been given 5 different workouts and are awaiting number 6 so the variety is great.

I am quite used to the diet plan now and still am not missing anything in particular, so I can live without beer, chocolate and take-aways after all!!! lol ;)

Had a bit of a down day not sure why but went round to see the inlaws and sister in law was there and they all made a big fuss of how great I looked and how my body shape had drastically changed so that really made me feel great!! When I got home I printed out a few photos of before and after 1 week then 2 weeks and wow you can really tell I haven't put any on here yet as I want to just do the before and after so watch this space lol 10 days to go!!

Day 17....... http://mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

The temptation to weigh myself everyday is so hard to resist I must admit to having the odd sneaky look but will officially weigh in and measure tomorrow before the fasting results show!!!!

I was so pleased with rugby training last night it was no problem at all my fitness and flexibility have definately improved just hobbling about with lots of blisters on my feet today and a huge bruise, scrape and lump on my temple from being accidentally kicked in the head Sarah was not impressed lol.

Workouts all fine again doing well. I enjoyed my carb day strawberries, raspberries and greek yoghurt for breakfast, chicken kebabs and new potatoes for lunch and my favourite chicken curry with brown rice for dinner with snacks of fruit and sausages. Thats it food wise now until 7pm tomorrow not sure how that will affect me I have never done a fast before so I am looking forward to it in a strange way. Will post tomorrow and let you know how I get on!

Day 16 of lose 30lb in 30 days http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

Well another good day again for me poached eggs for breakfast, tuna and salad for lunch and chicken kebabs for tea.

I have been looking forward to having another carb day stocked up on the fruit and yoghurt better sensibly make the most of it because Dax has thrown another bombshell at us!!!!! fasting!!!! me!!! lol actually I am looking forward to the challenge lets see what happens!

I love the way this program keeps us on our toes and we don't know what to expect next I usually get bored of diets but this I am really enjoying and because I am seeing results quickly it is definately keeping me focused.

Workouts all fine I actually feel so good I am going to rugby training tonight which usually just about kills me so lets see if I am any fitter!!!

Day 14........... Check out Dax Moy on http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

So excited today am really feeling good can't believe we are halfway through don't get me wrong this 30 day challenge is TOUGH but we are all seeing results some are losing a lot more weight than others but even the ones not losing much are still seeing inch loss and feeling good! I can't wait to weigh in tomorrow I am hoping for good results I feel like I will have lost something and I feel slimmer so fingers crossed the scales agree lol!

I have done all my workouts already today I am so tired I wanted to get the meltdown done before it got late so I did it before tea today.

I am struggling a bit for meal ideas and snacks but we all the challengers are putting our heads together to come up with ideas. Today I had ham and eggs for breakfast, a snack of cashews for lunch I had ham and mushroom omelette and for dinner I had roast chicken with fried cabbage and leeks mmm really enjoyed that! lol.

Day 13....... http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

Love the carb days!!!!!! I really look forward to having my fruit and yoghurt for breakfast lol never thought I'd say that a couple of weeks ago! had strawberries, raspberries and greek yoghurt it was delicious mmm.

Had to go out with my rugby team today there was a memorial service and we ended up in a pub (of course) I am so proud of myself I had 2 pints of water with ice now theres dedication for you.

I am still enjoying the workouts and doing really well its not really a chore now as I feel so good afterwards improvements in all of them today again go me!!

I need to get my meals sorted out though I haven't really done a proper meal plan and although I have not had anything I shouldn't have Its a pain having to think what to have and go to the shop everyday planning is the way to go.

Day 12............ http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

Tough day...... felt really tired and lethargic today first day I have felt like cheating but I wouldn't I had to leave the staff room today as everyone was tucking into big breakfast barms and I could feel my resolve weakening.

I treated myself to some organic fillet steak, sausage and garlic mushrooms for tea that made me feel much better! Looking forward to carb day really craving some dry roast potatoes mmm.

New workout today was good I can definately feel it in my stomach, this workout is designed to work all 600 muscles in the body wow! in 20 mins!

Day 11.......

Boo :( I have been so excited waiting for today to arrive so that I could weigh and measure myself as we haven't been allowed since monday. I really expected to see a big change. I was secretly hoping to have lost about 3lb but no just the 1lb which is quite good I guess but when you are really pushing yourself to your absolute limits getting up an hour earlier to workout before going to work, and sticking rigidly to a diet I really am giving this 30 day challenge my all but I must admit I am disappointed.

I keep focusing on the health benefits I do feel much healthier and I feel more toned its just the scales that disagree with me lol! Perhaps I should focus more on how I feel and how my clothes fit when did we all get so hung up on weighing scales and our weight its just a number right? So I am not going to let it get me down onwards and upwards (actually downwards preferably!!)

Workouts all good all 3 completed I am aiming for an early night tonight I try to get to sleep by 10.30pm and I get up at 6.15am but this hot weather keeps waking me up so lights out by 10pm tonight.

Day 10........ http://www.mylondonpersonaltrainer.com

We are now officially 1/3 of the way through Dax Moy's 30lb in 30 days challenge it has been, long and very hard but also enjoyable and definately challenging!!

I am really enjoying the program I feel better than I have done in a long time, I have lots of energy and just feel energised. I really think that my eating habits will have changed permanently after this. I am enjoying the healthy foods and I am not missing the foods I really thought I would like bread, chocolate and beer. I also intend to keep to the level of exercise we have been doing as I really enjoy it and it has quickly become part of my daily routine.

I have been steadily increasing my reps in my workouts and I am amazed by how quickly ny fitness is improving.
