Harder than I thought.
It has been about two weeks since I've posted about being healthy and getting fit. Those two weeks was a struggle for me to be honest. It was harder than I thought it would be. In my mind, it was going to be easy peasy just get up in the morning and start doing some exercise (Im not really an evening kind of person) but NO! I dunno why is it about that getting up in the morning and exercise is so hard but getting up and turning on my laptop and also getting breakfast was so much easier. Maybe it's all in the mind yeah? But I wasn't going to give up that fast I knew I had to put a LOT of dedication to this because I needed to change! So first of all I needed to find a workout that was easy for me to follow. I don't go to gym because most of them requires a membership and I don't have one that is near by so I just do it at home. So I found this one routine that looked like it will help me to kick start my workout routine. I've already started it but then I got distracted by assignment so kind of stopped which was bad because if I want to be able to let exercising be my everyday life activity I have to be able to juggle them both. So I'm going to start it all over again from day 1 and hopefully I won't slack. Also just to add up, I do go for a jog once or twice a week.
As for my food intake, I have already cut down some junk and sweet. For breakfast I go for greek yogurt (which is my favorite!) and add on banana, granola, and honey. Lunch and dinner are still a bit of a struggle for me to keep up on because I'm not quite sure what kind of healthy options to go for besides salad lol still searching for some healthy recipes that I like. If you have any suggestions or good recipes I should try, do leave a comment below (: For drinks ONLY water is allowed hehe and green tea in the morning and normal tea at night teehee >.<
Here are some pictures I like to keep me motivate (:

Try turkey mince with spices or chicken baked in the oven on a mountain rye wrap for lunch with some salad and cottage cheese. This is my favorite lunch at the moment. Also remember to eat every 2.5 - 3 hours to keep your metabolism going through out the day. I also like to have lemon in my water in the morning and right before bed, it's good for your digestive system and your skin :) hope this helps

Thank you for the recipe, would try it (: Oh I didn't know about eating every 2.5-3hrs, I'd definitely keep that in mind Thank you! <3
DeleteGive yourself time. It takes 21 days or so to develop a habit. And what's also important - do only what you like. For example, I HATE running, I tried to push myself to do it and I was miserable. So I found another activities that make me happy and I don't need to push myself to do them! Like skating, yoga, aerobics.
ReplyDeleteCannot give you any recipes though, I'm just trying to eat more veggies and avoid sugars and fatty foods.
Keep up and good luck!
