I actually lost 5 lbs last week but had a very indulgent weekend so have put a couple back on. Never mind though, 3 lbs over all weight loss in a week isn’t bad!

So back to it today! I didn’t do much running last week as I felt like I was getting a cold but I did a few miles last night and felt good afterwards so I’ll try and build it back up this week.

Today I weigh 25 lbs more than I did on 15 April 2010. Argh, how did that happen? Well it’s mostly from stress eating and drinking while we’ve been moving house. 6 lbs of it came from a week’s holiday with my family in Wales. We’ve moved now and are settled so it’s time to do something about it. So day 1 – here goes!

Breakfast – an apple

Lunch – Pollenta with sun dried tomatoes, basil and flaked almonds

Dinner – Vegetable chilli with rice

Exercise – 3 mile run – See it here: http://www.endomondo.com/workouts/ohTby6ZpOfM

It’s been a while since I’ve blogged. That’s probably because I haven’t been very successful with my health kick so far this year! That is until I decided to give up wine and start running!

I started running a couple of weeks ago and I’ve been out nearly every day since. I haven’t managed more than 3 miles yet but just getting out every day is making me feel so healthy. I’ve started to lose weight and I don’t feel like eating junk food. I’m sleeping better at night and I’m not having as many anxiety dreams.

I’ve also been eating some delicious healthy food so watch this space for some more recipes!

I’ve lost 1 lb this week. After losing 4 lbs in the first week this is no surprise, it had to slow down. I feel good apart from having a cold but I’m not going to let that stop me. I think I’ll have a vitamin C rich smoothie for breakfast to help me fight it off!

Still going strong. I haven’t weighed myself for a few days so I don’t know how the weight loss is going but I’m still being really healthy. I’ve managed to get lots more exercise this week as I’ve been walking everywhere since crashing the car on Sunday! I’ve got a courtesy car now though so that might change.

Breakfast – Porridge with oat milk and manuka honey

Lunch – Left over oat pastry and tofu quiche from last night with salad

Dinner – You are what you eat Thai Green Curry

I am very proud of myself. I crashed my car yesterday and managed to get through the evening without hitting the bottle or the junk food!

Breakfast – porridge with oat milk and agave nectar

Lunch – Crudites and houmous

Right, here goes with week 2. Let’s see if I can shed another few pounds. I need to work a bit more exercise into my routine this week so I’ll run the dog a few times and do some my fitness coach dance workouts and some wii fit!

Well, I’ve completed the first week and I’m feeling great. I’ve lost 4 lbs!

I started the day with some home made fresh fruit museli (millet flakes, barley flakes, ground flaxseed with goji berries, linseeds, desiccated coconut, pumpkin seeds, pineapple, pear and oat milk)

I’ll plan my meals for next week later and post a meal planner.
