....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

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
Nay
