Fighting the fat: my healthy-ish journeying in addition to so far



So I’ve mentioned before that I’m on something of a mission to banish some belly fatty (and other areas) that has crept upwardly on me slow over the concluding 3 years (definitely post-marriage).
Anyway, I idea it pertinent to portion you lot a quick update on where I’m at.

Full disclaimer: I’ve non stuck to a super strict regime, in addition to the bouts healthy-ness below are punctuated alongside a few social events in addition to the strange Hob-Nob biscuit.  I am but a mere human, in addition to a greedy i at that. 

In the process, I’ve been introduced to a few products my some real helpful PRs, in addition to I’ll portion my thoughts on them too.    
  
So here’s what I’ve been upwardly to…

Fitness

Running


This is something I never idea I’d listen myself say. I pretty much hated running my whole life.  Almost every bit much every bit I loathe early on mornings. So if you lot told my 20-year-old self that I’d i 24-hour interval live getting upwardly at 9am on a Sat in addition to running roughly the park, I would express joy inwards your face. Yet hither I am.  

It’s apparently super-helpful that hubby is doing it alongside me. Truthfully, I’m non certain if I’d live fully motivated to acquire alone.

We simply acquire in i lawsuit a week, in addition to I tin simply muster most 1-2kms. But that to me is progress. Major progress.

I’ve fifty-fifty bought some cute running shoes, which is apparently a improve motivator than the trainers I’ve had since uni (proof itself of how much of a running-phobe I am).

Running tip #1 – construct yourself upwardly to it.  Don’t aspect to acquire from 0 to sixty without whatever shin-ache.  I made the fault of going from practically stationary to total on sprints, in addition to it wasn’t large or clever. Let your torso gradually acquire used to it. Slow in addition to steady actually does win the race.

Running tip #2 – mix it up. Jogging slow for upwardly to an hr isn’t much fun. So it’s expert to intermission it upwardly alongside bursts of jogging, followed past times faster running. This makes for a to a greater extent than interesting workout, in addition to I also experience it makes me workout to a greater extent than efficiently. I ever similar to run faster for the concluding dwelling stretch, alongside the bench at the terminate of the commons proving to live a huge motivator.     

Running tip #3 – sip, don’t swig, water. The temptation is to acquire crazy in addition to glug on H2O when working out, but taking small-scale sips is the agency to go. I was sent the Bobble Insulate bottle below, which keeps H2O cool for 24hrs, which is perfect every bit there’s zilch to a greater extent than annoying than lukewarm H2O when you’re sweating buckets. Even better, the stainless steel bottle doubles upwardly every bit a flask for hot drinks.  Bloody brilliant.

If you’re bored of water, a salubrious juice shot could live a happy substitute. Very LA, I know. I was sent these Organic Ginger Shots, which incorporate ginger juice, apple tree juice, H2O in addition to zilch else.

Way healthier than a processed shake.  However, the ginger fiery-ness nearly blew my caput off, though my hubby liked it. So if you lot tin bring the heat, it’s a expert sub for h2o.      
   

Yoga 

I mentioned this inwards my before post, but I practise yoga at to the lowest degree 3 times a week.  I lookout adult man the super straight-forward Shilpa Shetty Yoga, which is perfect to do at dwelling in addition to fits roughly my daily routine. There is the total forty infinitesimal workout, or a 10 infinitesimal version for when you’re brusk on time. As I’ve been doing it for a few weeks now, I do experience leaner in addition to to a greater extent than toned.

Yoga tip #1 – Give yourself relaxation days.  Everyone’s torso is unlike - some of us dearest to acquire upwardly in addition to do yoga every unmarried day.  And some of us don’t.  I clearly autumn into the latter.  When I enthusiastically tried to do yoga for the 2nd 24-hour interval running, AFTER my weekend jog, I suffered rigid tum pains. I mean value I stretched likewise far, in addition to I was off yoga for a week.  You see, your torso needs to relaxation in addition to recover later exercise to assist your muscles repair in addition to tighten. So going the whole Sus scrofa is sometimes counter-intuitive. Alternate your days.


Food           


So the biggest affair I’ve learnt is, moderation trumps dieting every time. The work alongside strict diets is that they are super unsustainable, in addition to the minute you lot ease up, the weight comes dorsum on.

The 2nd affair I’ve learnt is that salubrious eating is tricky to residue alongside a social life.  I was doing actually good until I had 3 back-to-back consecutive meals out alongside unlike friends.  And fifty-fifty though I had smaller portions than normal, it pretty much kyboshed my routine.

But instead of crying most it, I’ve come upwardly to bring that at that spot volition live those ‘cheat days’, in addition to an easier dominion of pollex is this, don’t consume crap inwards the house.  

So here’s what I’ve been having:

Healthy, but filling breakfast

While I’ll care for myself to a poached egg on seeded toast on the weekend, inwards the weekday I demand something quicker. Now I brand my ain citrus porridge (recipe here), in addition to to a greater extent than frequently than non avoid shop-bought cereals every bit they incorporate insane amounts of sugar.

However, I was pleased to live introduced to Lizi’s Granola, which is a depression inwards saccharide (less than 4% per pack) in addition to packed alongside seeds.  I’ll frequently induce got this alongside fruit in addition to yoghurt, in addition to piece initially it took getting used to, I directly don’t miss the syrupy sugary-ness of criterion granolas. Also, the combination of oats, nuts yoghurt in addition to seeds actually helps me experience fuller for longer, keeping elevenses at bay.     

Carb-free dinners

I’m surprising myself alongside this one.  I figured that skipping the carbs would acquire out me famished.  But if you lot choice the correct alternatives, you’re non left hungry at all. I’ve been having courgette spaghetti (or courgette), in addition to fifty-fifty had a poly peptide packed prawn, mango in addition to avocado salad (see the recipe for that, here).  As long every bit at that spot is some cast of poly peptide inwards the mix, you lot tin experience total minus the common pasta, potatoes, rice or bread.           

Healthy fats 

m on something of a mission to banish some belly fatty  Fighting the fat: my healthy-ish journeying in addition to so far


Yes, you lot should all the same live having fats.  I’ve mentioned that I’ve been stone oil pulling for a piece now, good I’ve also experimented alongside eating teaspoons of the materials (hey, Miranda Kerr does it too).  The telephone substitution affair is to acquire for 100% raw organic kokosnoot oil.  So I’ve been using Vita Coco’s range. I’ll shortly live experimenting alongside using it inwards cooking too, in addition to so lookout adult man this space!
  

Healthy snacks

From experience, I know that you lot tin maintain a salubrious weight in addition to apartment tum past times eating normal home-cooked meals, every bit long every bit you lot cutting out unhealthy snacks. You see, snacking is the cloak-and-dagger diet killer.  When you lot experience hungry betwixt mealtimes, the temptation is to acquire for a quick fix, in addition to unremarkably it’s an unhealthy i – i.e. a bundle of crisps or a chocolate bar. So i of the things I’ve changed upwardly is what I snack on.      

I pretty seek to avoid snacking betwixt mealtimes, but if I must, I’ll pick out grip of a handful of almonds, which are filling in addition to total of expert fats in addition to nutrients.  I received these scrummy almonds from California Almonds, who also supply handy snack tins in addition to so you lot tin bring a portion of almonds to go or snack on-the-go. Way classier than a sandwich purse or oversized Tupperware.
    
After next my fitness in addition to salubrious eating plan, without compromising myself likewise much, I’m feeling fitter in addition to leaner already.  Like I say, the results aren’t dramatic, but hopefully past times doing it the sensible way, they’ll live lasting.
