Back to Basics - Week 2

The first week didn't go exactly to plan but that doesn't mean the plan gets scrapped. It was my baby sister's birthday on Saturday with treats abound, my baby brother stayed with us for the entire week, there was a girls home-made pizza night mid-week at our place, work was more busy than usual with a media launch (I work in television, stills co-ordinator for publicity)....and the list can go on. So even though I didn't stick to my eating/exercise plan or even write it all down, I was more conscious of what I ate and felt better in my skin.

This week I will still try to do the following:

• Write a menu plan each Saturday, and shop
• Write a moving plan each Saturday, and just do it
• Keep a daily food diary

In addition, I need to remember to take my supplements daily!

• Vital Greens with soy, my preferred post-run/walk pick up
• Microgenics Flaxseed Oil, my preferred alternative to fish oil (blergh) and suitable for vegans

This week's moving plan:

S 10 - 75 min walk
S 11 - 75 min jivamukti yoga (MB)
M 12 - 5 km run + 60 min jivamukti yoga DVD
T 13 - 75 min walk + 75 min jivamukti yoga (MB)
W 14 - 5 km run (sore neck and body all week so no yoga tonight)
T 15 - free day
F 16 - 75 min walk
