So after spending ages typing this out my phone decided to be stupid and not let me post it. So I'll do it all over again and hopefully I won't miss anything!
I haven't been eating as well as I'd like or exercising as much as I said I would so I'm going to be implementing a kinda regime to keep myself in line and give myself the kick up the butt I seem to need.
Basically I have been getting up just before my partner's brother gets here each day (normally around 11am) which doesn't give me the time I need to get things done. It also means I haven't been eating breakfast etc
So this new plan starts Monday as we need to go shopping for healthy food and stuff.
Here are my new rules, please comment/suggest things/feedback its always appreciated!
-up by 8am, no excuses!
-drink a large glass of water when you get up
-breakfast -good cereal/brown toast, 1 piece of fruit, 1 cup of coffee if I want it (only one allowed all day!)
-zumba 20mins @9am
-shower, massage in shower and once again when out of shower
-small meal at midday with glass of water
-small meal at 4pm before partner goes to work (4:30pm)
-exercise after partner's brother leaves, (8pm) massage after
-dinner @9pm when partner gets back from work
-bed by midnight
Avoid:
Bread- replace sandwiches with salads
Coffee- one cup a day
Sugar
Dairy- mainly cheese!
Chocolate -even if partner buys it as a surprise! Have a little here and there, one or two squares then put in fridge to keep out of sight and out of mind
Snack if hungry, not if bored - drink a glass of water, wait 20 mins if still hungry have snack
Sip water throughout the day and have a glass with each meal
Ensure some sort of fruit and veg is part of each meal
Do not have large meals -frequent smaller meals are better for metabolism- also, of full do not feel the need to finish what's on the plate, just stop eating, take plate back into kitchen so not tempted.
If you mess up don't be mad at yourself because you'll probably lose willpower if you get upset at yourself.
I think that's everything
