Is everyone else loving that the sun is out again today?
I have had SUCH a lazy weekend. But I've loved it, I was eating well last week so felt I deserved to just nap and chill all weekend. As you do.
So my fitspiration today is a warm welcome to the week I feel. I'm ready to eat well again and now that the sun is back out, might even be tempted to start up my walking/running again.
This week is a new start! I've already started it pretty well by switching my wholemeal toast breakfast for half a grapefruit. Salad for lunch and probably something equally as healthy for dinner. It's a new day and I am ready for some fitspo!
I don't know why, but I've found getting myself motivated over the last few weeks very difficult. It might just be because its so groggy at the moment and I hate being stuck in an office all day, but I dunno, does anyone else find this?
So this week I want to get back on track. I've planned in my meals on MFP today and I plan to go for my walk/run for 30 minutes tonight. Let's get back into the swing of things again!
I find fitspiration from so many places. From fitness bloggers to fitspo tumblrs, I am all over them to keep myself on track. But I've found my biggest source of inspiration to be from Instagram.
I follow a fair few accounts on instagram and I'm on it every day, so why not incorporate fitness and health into my regime into this way as well. I've listed a few of the fitness accounts I follow underneath this pictures, so you can check them out for yourself.

This weekend started out well, but I already knew I'd break anyway. I went for a run/walk, cooked all of my meals for the week and then headed to my friend's house for a catch up. Which then lead to Starbucks, chips and cocktails.
This week is a new week though and I'm ready to get going again. So here's some fitspo for both me and for you as well.
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 hope you're all having a lovely Bank Holiday Monday!
If you're not having a lie in day (as you are more than entitled to), then you'll be out on a walk/run like me. The way I see it, I have the rest of the day to be a slob ( watching 24 from the start, mammoth task). Plus, I can have an extra treat for having that extra day off. Even better.
Let the fitspo commence
This week I've downloaded MyFitnessPal on my phone.
I love how you can set a goal and it lets you know how many calories you can eat throughout the day.
After a weekend in Ireland I can pretty much guarantee that I have not eaten healthy! But oh well, it's a new week and it's time for some fitspiration.
What's inspiring you this week?
Well I hope that my second week on Exante goes better than first. I mean I'm sure it will, I think the big cut in calories and variety got to me last week so maybe this week I'll be more acquainted with it. I am enjoying drinking more water though, however the no fruit rule is slightly upsetting. Oh well, must persevere!
I've also been doing a few videos from Blogilates, have you ever tried these? You will hurt the next day after doing these. After a weekend of abs and tummy workouts, this morning it was all about the bum and legs :)
So here's some Fitspo to get you get you all in the mood too :)
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
