Sticking with the easy post titles!
Not much has changed this week, I'm coasting along nicely and have managed to stick to a routine, working out Tuesday and Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. I'm also making the effort to reach 10,000 steps each day, once I've managed to reach that amount for a few weeks running, I'll try and up my game. Now I was a few hundred steps short on Monday and Friday, next week I'll be better. I didn't think I'd make my steps on Saturday but shockingly I did! I'm not quite at 10,000 yet today but just because I'm posting this now doesn't mean I've finished - I will make 10,000 steps today, I will make sure I do. So far this week I've done over the equivalent of 10,000 steps a day so I'm pleased with that.
Food wise I feel like I am changing my eating patterns somewhat, I'm trying to cut down portion size slightly whilst eating what I like in moderation. I've been working on changing my weekend lunches, a quick fix would be soup, not too bad, but this weekend I've had eggs and either some fruit or a piece of toast, my breakfasts have been yoghurt, granola and fruit with a little bit of what I fancy in the evening, all within my calorie range though.
This week I'm hoping to keep this up, increase my steps a little, decrease my food intake a little and keep it up with the exercise. There might be some hurdles this week with family/work commitments but I will do my best.
I've even started daydreaming about the sports kit I'll treat myself too when I get to my ideal size, see here.
Anyway I'm keeping it short and sweet this week, I hope everyone else is gradually getting towards their goals and I also hope everyone is feeling completely positive about it as that is half of the battle.
