The Walking Girls and The View

Food

Food plan: I’ve been reading a lot about the famous paleo diet. I haven’t started head on yet but I have increased the amount of lean protein, almonds and green vegetables, reduced the quantity of fruit and dairy and I’m only having rye bread with sunflower seeds for breakfast, no bread after lunch.

Food journal: logged my food journal every day in MyFitnesspal.com and managed to stay on track with the calories intake.

Food cravings:  Hot, spicy and delicious curry. I’ve indulge myself on Tuesday with a wonderful lamb madras from Muntaz Indian Restaurant in Coin.

Breakfast: poached egg, sunflower farm bread and coffee with skimmed milk.
Snack: chocolate protein shake - Lunch: Curry Madras - Dinner: Salad with Burgos cheese and tuna

Happy or moody most of the time?  Happy most of the time. All the exercise time is giving more energy to tackle on with the rest of my day so I’m feeling fine and also Barcelona beat Real Madrid on Sunday which greatly contributed to my good mood.

Best moment this week: Walking and enjoying good company and a wonderful spring weather.

Worst moment this week: How trashed I felt after my first day at level 2 of 30 Days Shredded with Jillian Michaels.

Miss anything?  My husband

Looking forward to: going to London next Friday and finally seeing my DH after a whole month apart. It has been the longest we have been apart.  

Day at the hairdresser: color and styling gets you a long way!
