I had a long break over Christmas and New Year. Actually, I was just lazy. I ate crappy, I did nothing... I was myself.
For the last 2 weeks, I've been going for gentle walks with Riley, and eating really well. Most of my meals have been Paleo type dishes, with just a few exceptions. Snacks have been fruit, vege sticks, seeds and raw nuts. I've been drinking lots of water, and my new favourite drink is Dilmah Rose and French Vanilla tea. Just drop the teabag into your bottle of water, and off you go for the day. It tastes just like turkish delight, and kills those sweet cravings!
Yesterday, I picked up the treadmill I scored on ebay for just $31. Matt's sister, Tara, has loaned me her excercise bike and Cardio Twister, and I have the spare room set up as a home gym. This morning I burned 71 cals, doing a brisk 2.4km walk on the treadmill, and intend to do 10 mins each on the twister and bike this evening.
So far, in the last 2 weeks since I started again, I've lost 3.4 kg. Its a good start.
With the low - no carb eating, I'm finding my bgs are far better, too... very few spikes, and hardly any lows. Its a nice feeling! I feel in control, empowered, and like I'm getting back to health - the only problem is my skin breaking out as my body gets rid of the crap I've been eating for far too long - like 28 years!
