Week 5 - Day 6 - Fighting with my body

My joints all seem to be aching. My knees, elbows and shoulders. I'm not giving into it.
I went to spin and then follwed up with pump. Only 825 calories burnt so when I got home I decided to run around the racecourse. This was a disaster. Everytime I started to run my stupid problem of needing to go to the toilet happened. I was actually talking to my self out loud and cursing my body. I ended up walking and trying to run and then walking again. At least I burnt off another 200 calories so I managed a 1000 calorie Super Saturday. I'm over my body giving up on me. I just want to be able to run. I'm not giving up but it is so frustrating. I've had a really good week of eating. I got a surprise email from Mish which has really made my day. She said she has been tracking my stats and sees that I've been averaging 1 kilo + loss each week and that it puts me in the top 10%. I'm so wrapt. I'm not doing this to compete with anyone else but it is nice to get recognition for my efforts by someone I totally admire.
