Week One-ish

I’m writing this today because I think I owe you all another picture of my progress. 

I had a cheat meal yesterday of minirolls and chocolate fingers.

But, I’m back on the bandwagon today and feeling great! I have just started doing more ab work and I think it’s really paying off!! It’s the softest part of my body and the only part which is not muscly. 

So here’s the pictures and let me know what you think! Nice comments only though, I’m emotional at the moment. 

Please send me your progress and keep me updated, I find it empowering and inspiring! 

Getting There…

Today I’ve eaten: 

Breakfast: Two egg whites and steamed spinach

Lunch: Chicken, cucumber and green beans

Dinner: Organic brown wheat pasta and homemade tomato sauce 

Snacks: Cashew nuts

I did a mixture of cardio and resistance today. 

I’m feeling good about my day, but I am really craving some marshmallows. When it’s time for a cheat meal I will be eating Spaghetti Bolognese with garlic bread and maybe a cheeky tiramisu. Yes I am feeling great eating well, but I am human and my body’s used to having carbs and sugar. 

But, I am doing really well and I am really proud. Two more days until I have a gym rest and a cheat meal. 

How has everyone else done today?

Clean and Lean- Day One

Well, day one is nearly over! Five to go! 

The eating during the day was fine, I kept busy, ate my snacks and lunch within four hours and it kept the hunger pains away! I went to the gym, and followed the plan which includes a mixture of interval training and circuits. It’s the best workout I’ve had in a while and I feel great because of it! 

My only problem is I feel like it was all going too well.

Normally, when I get in from a busy day, I sit in my bed, snuggle up (my house is a freezer) and devour a packet of cookies. So, I am sat here with nothing. I now have huge sugar cravings. I’m not even hungry! Sugar is my nemesis and I am refusing to give in. Of course it’s going to be hard to begin with, but would it feel as proud if it was easy? 

I think not. 

So, I’m going to make a peppermint tea, and at 7 pm, make my cod and veg dinner. 

I’ll let you know how I feel tomorrow evening, my work out and of course what I’ve eaten. 

Make the right choice tonight like I’ve done! You’ll feel better for it and so proud!!
