Healthy New Start

Motivational Mondays....Oops Its Wednesday!

Hey Internet,

Hows everyone been recently? still keeping up your new years resolutions? or did you fail miserably like me?

 I said i would drink more water-FAIL. I said i would make more time to blog-FAIL. 

I've failed miserably, but not to worry, to be fair on myself, i did say i would try to be healthy (as a non resolution) and its worked! (this is the key, make things 'non resolutions')

 I have been super healthy, like more healthy then i have ever been in my life! 

well done me! The hard bit was trying to stay motivated and somehow i have managed it! I've been mostly influenced by +Sprinkleofglitter with her whole #glittergetsfitter reading through everyone's progress on instagram, its seriously been a massive help! and now I've got Dan and Phil bloody running, so i suppose Ive gotta start doing that now- since I'm so easily influenced!

Progress so far; I've lost about half a stone which is about 7lb, i have been eating salad everyday and having fruit smoothies for breakfast after recently purchasing a smoothie maker, i been like a master fruit mixologist making all kinds of fruity goodness! 

Ive made being healthy FUN

Just want to point out i know there is a ton of sugar in fruit smoothies, but because i don't eat vegetables its my only option on the smoothie front...

Not only am i eating healthily, I'm actually leaving my 'bed-cave' (as my dad like to call my bedroom) Ive got this app on my phone that counts the steps i do per day, I'm trying to achieve 10,000 steps a day! its a hard target and i hardly reach it but its nice when i get close. Ive also been using a 'slender tone' machine, its a belt that you use to tone up your muscles whilst exercising, i use it whilst doing squats and sit ups.. sometimes when I'm feeling lazy ahhemmm..most the time i just put it on max and just lie down, its very intense, but it does work and the toned feeling is more or less instant

+ Here a few of my favourite healthy smoothies;

1) strawberry smoothie;

strawberries, low fat yogurt, banana and almonds

2) baby spinach ginger and peach smoothie;

baby spinach, peeled grated ginger, peaches, honey and water

3) Mango Yogurt smoothie;

cinnamon, lime juice, mango and low fat yogurt 

4) mixed fruit smoothie

oranges, blueberries, banana, pineapple and strawberries

I hope i have motivated you to carry on with your diets? or start a healthy routine? what you have to remember is that the results won't be instant, much to my distress.

You might as well give it a go!

let me know how your new year diets are going and recommend me any tips and tricks! 

I need all the help i can grab! we all gotta help each other!
