Welcome back Chick. Hope you had a good time

How'd you find coping with meals etc?

It was totally fine! You can actually stash your bag by one of the cafes on the mountain so I had a stack of food to get through.

For dinner I had an egg white/one yolk and vege omlette while everyone else had Fish n Chips. It felt great, and they were actually jealous of my dinner.

Right, back to it today.

Tuesday - Chest

BB Chest Press 15 x bar, 12 x 30kg, 8 x 35kg, 6 x 40kg

DB Flyes 12 x 8kg (per hand), 8 x 10kg, 6 x 12.5kg

Cable Cross Over 15 x 20kg (combined stacks), 8 x 25kg, 6 x 25kg

Tricep Pulls 15, 10, 8 (Can't remember weights, I'd lost my mind by now!)

Bench Dips With feet on swisball - 3 sets of 15

Felt like I was hungover today for some weird reason. I don't think I drank enough water during the weekend and I'm just exhausted from the snowboarding (totally worth it though). Only two more weeks til my next session.

Hehe good call. Gloves, thermals and beanie is all ready for me to go.

Do IIITTTTTT!!!! You won't regret it I promise!

For sure. The olds wanna take me out for dinner tonight (hhmmmmm steak) so I'll jog to their hotel and get ready there. It'll be a 40-45 min stint which is decent enough for me (I'm not much of a runner or jogger for that matter!)

So I get pulled into the HR office, and the Manager tells me I'm the highest internet user in the company! (Ok, so there's only 30 of us, but still). They ask me about this bodybuilding site I keep visiting and basically tell me I really need to cut it out. So basically it's only nightly visits from me.

Damn thats harsh - at least you haven't dropped off completely. One good thing about where i'm working is that we can surf pretty much anything & no one says boo.
