I brought a size 10... and it FITS! :D

So I popped to Primark after work yesterday (cheap clothing shop) and thought I'd get a pair of size 10 joggers as my 12s are a bit loose! Obviously being elasticated I went for the joggers as my first size 10 as there would be more chance of them fitting. They are tighter around the legs than my other joggers, but the others in size 12 are quite baggy around the legs so I guess it depends on the fit of them! I had also figured they could be my new target trousers if they didn't fit me :)

I also went down a size in bra, mainly because they didn't have my normal size in stock lol I kept the same cup size but went for a chest size down and I have the 4 boob look going on but the chest size is fine, so I might need to go up a cup size?

NOT me but this is what I mean!*

* If your breasts are spilling out of the cups, that does not look sexy, that is a  sign that the cup is too small. Under a tight T-shirt, it gives the effect of quadruple boobs. The line of the breast should be smooth in the right size bra.


I also tried a protein shake yesterday! Just 2 scoops of my Natural HEMP protein powder and 250ml water with 1/2tsp Splenda and I can safely say it was gross! Not so much the taste but the bitty texture! I might try one with some frozen berries and yoghurt tonight!

Dinner: Mince lamb with onions and mushrooms and cheese slices.

Chiquitos for Lunch today

We are off to a Mexican for lunch today! Have been studying the menu and have decided on:

Mushrooms con Queso

Baked with garlic, cheese & anchochilli-tomato sauce. Served with oven-baked flatbread

Southwest Chicken Caesar Salad

With mixed leaves, carrot, cherry tomatoes, cucumber & radish. Served with your choice of dressing: ranch, classic Caesar or Mexican citrus

Obviously I will leave the flatbread (bad carbs) But that is my best option as everything else came with tortilla wraps, rice or chips!!

It is also Day 1 of Level 3 on the 30 Day Shred today so I need to take a photo and some measurements tonight! My trousers feel looser around the thighs as well as the belly now, so fingers crossed for some good results! :)

It is also the 6th today so I need to do a monthly photo for my blog too! I'll need to do 2 outfit changes! The 30DS photos are in a sports crop top type thingy, I am going to blur my head out when I put them on MFP LOL I don't want people to see my BELLY lol

So.... here are this month's photos... I have a waist!!! OMG! LOL

Jan 2012 - March 2012

Last Day of 30DS Level 2

It is the last Day of 30 Day Shred Level 2 today! Which means that Level 3 starts tomorrow! I do hope that there aren't so many plank moves! I don't mind the tummy crunches when you are lying on your back, its just the planks really hurt my shoulders! - Although they have got easy as the Level has progressed! (Never thought I'd say that!!)
