As horrible as the day was, it made me realise what a difference eating well and exercising can make. For the last three days I've eaten so badly and not exercised. This was due to my leaving do at work, my anniversary yesterday and just an overall glum day today.
Tonight I'd had enough and felt like I had to do something, if not to just get the anger out! I used the site 'Fitness Blender' for the first time the other day and managed to get a really good home workout out of it. I opted for the same tonight, but different videos. I've posted a photo below of the four activities I did. Two were cardio based and the other two were yoga/stretching. They have a whole library of different workouts for different things, I would definitely recommend having a look.
Half way through the cardio I pulled a muscle in my groin which was hideous! This is why I opted for the two stretching exercises to conclude -- (A hot muscle soak bath has also eased the pain a tad).
I managed to burn 581 calories which surprised me for a home workout. It means that I will definitely be doing more and feeling like I'm getting an adequate workout in when I can't get out.
I finished the day food-wise with some sweet potato chunks and scrambled egg and spinach.
The last few days have taught me a valuable lesson about the correlation between eating well and feeling good. It will definitely be something I will use as inspiration to carry on being a good egg!
I'm getting tattooed tomorrow and next Friday, meaning exercising will be at a minimum, but I will be trying to do what I can and eating right!
I finished my teatox two days ago as well and overall lost 5lbs. I will be continuing on with it from next week with a 28 day one this time.
Back to the clean eating!
