They said it was easy and it is. I’m not sure where this willpower or imagination or self belief has appeared from but I feel fantastic. So much energy.
Gym this morning decided on 45 mins on my old friend the cross trainer as it is so good for calorie burning. Well we had a bit of a fall out. It kept telling me to slow down to keep my heart rate within the zone.I upped it to cardio and we got along just fine I just got incredibly bored after 30 mins so had this wonderful idea that a treadmill run might be in order. (To those of you who’ve ever read any of my other ramblings I detest the treadmill with a passion.)
I find 8 difficult so to start this morning do 2 minutes at 9 – just to prove that I can do it. Hey at this precise moment in time I’m invincible so I do another 10 mins at 8 and alternate between 8 and 9 for the last 3 mins. Just to prove I can up my pace and I will do a 30min 5k one day.
Work was really busy so didn’t have time to think about food.
Lunch time was interesting. My Manager’s started the Rowland’s Celebrity Shake plan today and another girl, who’s lost 42lbs on lighter life is back on the Lighter Life after a bit of a lapse over Christmas. It’s not a competition but I bet I beat them. Was discussing my plan today and have been reliably informed that the CD is the best bit about this eating plan – and I haven’t even tried it yet.
“Part of the secret of successin life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.”
Mark Twain
Today’s the day when you’re supposed to go clear out your fridge and cupboards of any food that doesn’t totally inspire you. Well I threw away precisely nothing. This is the bit I remember from watching the programme last year and since then I’ve literally not bought or eaten anything low fat or low calorie. I remember to compensate for the fat and sugars and stuff that a shed load of additives and E’s were included. It’s like my cup a soup yesterday – thoroughly enjoyed every mouthful.
Today’s Success Checklist
1. I ate when I was hungry YES I never thought I’d say I nearly forgot to eat!
2. I ate what I really wanted YES Absolute heaven
3.I ate consciously YES Cut my butties into 4!
4. I stopped when full YES Such a relatively small amount does satisfy
5. I drank water YES
6.I moved my body YES 45mins in the gym
7.I listened to the CD NO time!
8.I did the Mirror exercise YES I am Julia Roberts not Jo Brand
9.I did NOT drink alcohol YES Easy
One Positive Thing I Noticed Today….
Concentration much better in work.
What I’m Looking Forward To Tomorrow…
