The Skinny Fat to Skinny Fit Challenge: Week One Review

 

Day 9: Week One done, Week Two Begins!

So updating the last dear diary post I write to review how I felt after completing week one of the Skinny Fat to Skinny Fit Challenge.

Week at a Glance: Exercise

Workout
(35 minutes total – pushups, squats, lunges, rows, presses and treadmill interval sprints to finish – 6 rounds of 20 seconds with 30 seconds rest)

Week at a Glance: Food

I never diet but I do eat conciously and watch what I eat in terms of cooking my own food and trying to good choices whenever I can. This week I was aware that I had to avoid eating when I am bored as however healthy this snacking may be, it adds to extra calories that I don’t need.

My hardest thing was sticking to meal times and not grazing mindlessly, but it actually made me enjoy my meals more when I stuck to eating at these times …

Breakfast              7.30 – 8.30am
Mid Morning       10.30 – 11.30am
Lunch                    1.00 – 2.00pm
Afternoon            4.00 – 5.00pm
Evening                 8.00 – 8.30pm (i usually eat later as I work 5 – 8pm)

So there you have it, some inspiration, some workout ideas, some food guidelines. And in addition to emphasis yesterday’s blog post take a minute to watch the video below. End procrastination!
