We’re starting the last week of the school holidays… Goodness knows what will happen to my attempts at healthy eating and living once term starts!
But I have managed at least 4 weeks, through the holidays, with kids eating all sorts, and I survived decorating, and still carried on with my mission. And there is one more week until the rigidity of school commences once more.
Granted, I haven’t lost as much as I hoped, weight wise, but I think I have made great progress in changing my eating, and introducing some exercise into my lifestyle, and as they say, slow and steady wins the race!
So, what have I been eating this week?
I have had a request for recipes for some dishes, so when I get a chance I will try and post!
And I am still drinking lots of water, and herbal teas throughout the day.
I haven’t attempted any of the exercise DVD’s yet, but I have finally got on my exercise bike and am trying to do 30 minutes moderate speed cycling on it most days… but the speed and calorie counter don’t work, so I am guestimating how fast I am actually cycling! Whatever the speed, it sure is making me sweat! That’s gotta be good!
I’m thinking of investing in a Fitbit to help track my activity and heartrate too!
And to be a little bit more proactive, I have started to publish the odd health tip, found under Health in my header menu! I’ve had some great feedback so far, and if I give information that helps another, then all the better!
I post these, alongside foodie pics, on my Instagram account, if you wish to follow me on there! @phantom_giggler.
Now, the all-important question… what did the scales say today???
I had lost 3 lb so far last week…
This week another
2lbs!
That makes 5lbs in total, and I have broken the 11 stone barrier and am 10 stone something now!!!!
Woo hoo!!!!
But I Smile Anyway...
