Fell Off the Wagon

Like completely off. Fell off and the guy driving the wagon didnt notice and sped off into the sunset leaving me sitting on my backside in the middle of nowhere.


Too much too soon. Didn't let myself ease into which I know may not be the way to go around it, but I am not looking for a quick fix. I want to make lifestyle changes, create new habits and be healthy for life, not fit into that dress next week.


So have decided to start again and try again. Same starting weight.

This weeks challenges are going to be...


2x bottles of water a day (Achieveable)
1x piece of fruit a day (Achievable)
3x 20 min Zumba sessions a week. (Monday, Wednesday, Friday)
2x 50 squats a week (Tuesday, Thursday)
Saturday and Sunday are family days. (Also work around the house, painting, renovating etc)


Snacks are not to be chips and soft drink. Make guacamole (recipe can be found here) and dip with a little bread or some plain crackers.

I have stopped buying myself soft drink and don't buy ice cream now either. (Very hard for me to give them up so I have given myself a pat on the back for making that step). On the occasion that I want something beside water, I add a little juice into my water bottle for a bit of flavour. (By little bit I mean about 1 part juice: 10 parts water). Should add a slice of orange, lemon or lime instead, but all in due time.


Dinners are made with veges/salad as a huge part of it. (A huge bowl of salad with some shredded chicken tossed through is my fave dinner)



So now that I have a new plan that isn''t as huge a shock, I should be able to hold onto that wagon better.
