Last day of my week 2 programme. Feels like an accomplishment to have got this far and it is becoming part of my day.
This morning I was so tempted to stay in bed, watch tv, read a book... but I didn't. I got up and got ready and went and completed my training.
Today was 90 secs of running and 2 mins of walking, repeated over 20 mins. By staying at 4.4km/hr I'm able to get into a comfortable rhythm and actually finish it without it being a struggle. I notice that starting next week things really get cranked up and varied so I am very hopeful I can get into a stride and complete that routine comfortably also.
I'm finding it easy to keep up my water intake, so that's good, but I am hungry.. that's more of a challenge, I have some nuts and dried fruits to help me with that but any hints of what I could do to keep the hunger at bay would be appreciated.
I know it's probably a bit premature, but I already feel like my body feels different, and my skin feels better than it has done in a long time. I like these positive signs of progress, especially since I am a wee bit concerned that my increase of carbs this week may influence my weigh-in on Monday (I haven't over-eaten but with yummy ham in the house it's hard to resist a fresh bread ham sandwich, and new potatoes are so sweet this time of year...) back to more focussed eating tonight with a ham salad :)

I think it is the eating which is a huge challenge for people who are seeking a healthier body and wellbeing..... you will sort it girl, you have come a long way already. xxxxxx
