Sunday Morning
I did a 45 minute jog this morning! The feeling is so amazing when you start your day off with cardio on an empty stomach. I ate a banana and raw muesli + a cup of green tea for breakfast. yummm. Best way to start the day :)

Supreme Self Love.
I’m never going to be a pro-“be-whatever-size-you-be-cause-you’re-beautiful-just-the-way-you-are-with-your-belly-bulging-over-your-jeans!-blog” BUT I have to say, I’m sick of every time I walk past a mirror critiquing myself. I’m sick of if I have an off day, or don’t exercise, feeling so guilty about myself that I just want to crawl in a hole and die....

Beautiful, honest words.

I fell off the wagon, right off actually. It all started last night, I was cooking dinner for my boyfriend. I made a Vegie roast, which is from Sanitarium it’s basically all fillers and salt, roast Pumpkin, Chickpea and baby Spinach salad and some corn on the side.

no gym today
The weather is so crazy beautiful. I don’t want to be cooped up inside on a treadmill when I can hike up the mountains behind my place and get sufficient cardio. I’ll have to do an entire body resistance and strength work-out tomorrow but it will be totally worth it :)

Workout #1
Warm up, 25 unweighted squats. stretch...

First post of 2011
I’ve been away! I’ve been back at my home on the coast. I’ve been drinking, partying, getting an amazing tan, kissing cute boys and not exercising for the last 2 weeks. Ewwww. I did however manage to keep to my eating plan as much as possible. I did this with lots of preperation and LOTS of self-control. So I’m actually not feeling that bad, I’m going to do my first...
