Losing the birthday chubba

I'm not 100% sure of how much weight I put on over the week of my birthday (if any) but you know when you feel so sluggish & unhealthy...yeah that lol and plus my meals went a little something like this:

 Fry up with milkshake & Mcdonalds all in one day, Chimichangas for lunch one day then a meal out in the evening, Chinese buffet on my actual birthday & that doesn't even include the birthday cakes & desserts urghhhhh lol! But no regrets! I really enjoyed my birthday & the food was yummy!

 ....Just means I have to kick my butt this week! Which is going well so far :D

I've had one week of unhealthy food so trying to make this week one with healthy food,

Plan

• Run every morning - this has been going well! We skipped Tuesdays because it was raining HARD and who wants to run with soggy clothes & hair *shudders* so we stayed home & done this HIIT workout from YouTube.

• Squat & lunge through out the day! - Be it waiting for the kettle to boil or during ad breaks on TV I'm trying to get some squats in haha.
• Drink more water!
• Get more sleep
• Eat clean (-er)!

Food ideas

Here are a few things I plan to eat & hopefully continue eating when I go back to uni

Breakfast

• Weetabix with Honey & Cinnamon
• Fruit Salad
• Small Omelette (1 egg) with ham, onion or what ever is in the fridge at the time
• 1 boiled egg with 2 slices of brown toast
• Porridge/Oats with Cinnamon & Honey

Lunch

• Omelette with 1 pitta bread
• 1 baked potato with beans or cheese
• Scrambled egg sandwich (one slice of bread)

Dinner

• Seasoned baked chicken with broccoli
• Prawns in curry powder with small portion of rice & broccoli (more veg than carbs)
• Baked potato filled with mince & veg on the side
• Chicken salad

Snacks

• Celery with Hummus as a dip. (Red Pepper Hummus is delicious!)
• Wheat thins topped with hummus, goats cheese or plain. (rice cakes work too!)
• Cut up slices of pitta bread toasted in the oven (Crisp/chip style) then dipped in Hummous or Guacamole.
• Green tea through out the day (love love love the stuff! And it's good for you! Result :D

Desserts

• When I crave Apple crumble I'll make a mini version with honey instead of sugar in a small ramekin cup/dish
• Fresh fruit
• When I crave chocolate I'll have Horlicks Chocolate light hot malt which is yummy than regular malt & doesn't have many calories

This kind of thing (all rights reserved to photographer)

I also bought a 49p writing pad from Sainsburys to jot down everything I eat in the day (sounds a bit strict but it really helps because when you go to eat something unhealthy you won't because you feel guilty about writing it down) & to write down anything inspirational & the workouts I do.

Also! Don't be afraid to run! People don't care that your working out & if you do get weird looks think of the good looks you'll get when your body is in shape ;) Even when I wake up and don't feel like heading out I always am thankful I do because once you're out there you feel great!

Lets see how it goes! I'm on day 3 & feeling better that I did last week so that's a good start.

What could I do better? Anything I could add or take away from my food ideas?

Let's help each other out!

God Bless
