I don't know about you, but when I first started on this journey I found it really, really hard. Eating healthy went out of the window after a hard day and exercise didn't even get considered, but honestly, getting myself into a routine has done me a world of good.
I've been walking every night, increasing my running intervals every time and eating super healthy with the help of MyFitnessPal. This has not only made me feel better, but my skin is getting clearer and I'm sleeping better, which I'd been struggling with over the last few weeks.
If you haven't already taken the first step and you're reading this thinking that you ought to, then I urge you to get going. Just go for that run tonight or swap the pizza for a healthy, veg filled omelette, it's little baby steps for now that will really make an overall difference to your health.
How are you all getting on?
For the last few weeks I've been building up my fitness with brisk walking and interval running when I'm not so out of breath. Yes, I am unfit...
So I've got myself on to MapMyRun in order to track progress and save routes I do. It shows you how many calories you have burned, how fast you went and you can make notes of how your run went, which was great motivation for me to remind myself to run after work.
Even better, if you have MyFitnessPal on your phone as well, you can sync these up and it will automatically add your workout to your diary. Amazing!
So here's your fitspo :) Enjoy!
I couldn't even bring myself to post one of these last week. Who needs a dose of guilt when they're tucking into their Easter eggs? Nobody!
So this week we're back on track; no more hot cross buns, Easter egg chocolate or pizza... which is pretty much what I lived on for Easter weekend. It was a 4 day weekend, how else was I meant to celebrate?
Here's some inspiration for a post-binge week!
Today I start my Exante journey.
I did a trial run on Exante a few months ago but I've decided enough is enough and I need a kick start in order to get my bikini body.
That, combined with Blogilates and I think I'll be a beach bombshell...(hope my will power is strong enough)
For all of you out there that can eat normal food, Food for Fitspo
Spring peas with New Potatoes, Herbs & Watercress
It has been a long time since I put one of these up, but it seemed appropriate with all my summer plans. With a long holiday very much needed, I want to not even think about any body insecurities I have and just have a relaxing time.
So here is a little fitspiration for the summer to really get you in the mood for some fitness and healthy eating. I'll also give you a brief list of some of my favourite fitness sites and recipes at the bottom.
Food for Fitness
Zucchini & Quinoa Burgers
Yum! I'll be trying this soon!
The last bit of motivation for September.
Where have the last 9 months gone! Time is going by too fast and it's time to take action and make a change.
Where do you want to be by Christmas? Or even this time next year?
So last Wednesday I started my 30 Day Shred.
I'm very achy but loving the addition of exercise back into my routine. Once I'm back from London, I'm back on the case.
If even the Victoria' Secrets models can't motivate you, nobody will.
