Day 12
12. What is your least favorite type of cardio?
I dont think I have a “least favourite” but if I think about it I’m not a very good swimmer. Its not that I dont like it, I just find it really hard, especially if I try to go fast.
LAST EXAM TODAY! Then its game on for exercise.
Checking out a gym on tuesday, excitingggg :)

Today when doing day 4 of the 30 day Shred I found myself just as worn out as I did the first time I did the DVD. Infact, by a third of the way through I was completely knackered. But I kept going.
Last night, I had a binge of sorts. It wasn’t huge, I just had a bit of chocolate, an avocado and a ball of mozzarella. Its the first time in 2 weeks I’ve “fallen off the wagon”...

Day 3 of the 30 day shred level 1.
I am actually really excited because I can see changes in my fitness already. I managed to do all of (Anitas version) the push ups in circuit 1. And when doing the side lunges in the third circuit, I nearly managed to keep up with the weights.. nearly. Its an improvement anyways.
After finishing I wasnt nearly as tired or sweaty as I was the past two times, im...

Day 10
10. Do you count calories? If so, what is your daily limit?
I dont actually count calories at the moment. I get a general idea of how many calories are in certain things so im not eating bad foods, but I generally care more about levels of saturated fats, which I try to avoid wholeheartedly.
I dont actually know how many calories I consume daily but I know what I used to eat (which was a helluva...

Day 2 level 1 of the 30 day shred. I’ve gotta say, so far it seemed to get harder than easier! Yesterday was a breeze in comparison. I think its just cause my muscles are aching from yesterday and once I get more used to it my muscles will become stronger.
Does anyone else have a struggle doing the press-ups in the first circuit?
I am so far unable to even manage consistency doing...

Day 9
9. What is your favorite type of cardio?
I dont know if I have one, I havent got into the whole “enjoying exercise” mindset as of yet. However, the ones I have experimented with, just running and skipping, have been going well. In this weather I prefer skipping though, cause I can do it in one place and go inside when it gets too cold, whereas if i’m running I still have to get...

Day 7
7. What is your least favorite healthy food?
CELERY. It is vile, I dont see the point of its existence at all. :)

Day 6
6. What is your favorite unhealthy food?
Salted popcorn or kettle lightly salted chips. It should probably be everything salty really, I cannot get enough of salt, thats been the hardest thing to cut back on! But im doing well :)

Day 5
5. What is your favorite healthy food?
This is really difficult cause I have an absolute TON favourite healthy foods :) My top top top one would have to be avocados, as I have pretty much grown up on them and when I wasnt trying to get in shape I’d eat like, one a day. But at the moment I really love pineapple, mushrooms, spinach and sweetcorn (not all mixed together).
It’s not that...

Im really sorry guys but there is no food post this evening. I had dumpling soup and it was absolutely delicious but very ugly so my flatmates wouldnt let me take pictures of it hahaa.
Went for a 20 minute jog today around the lake on campus but it was horrible, much less distance than yesterday, only about a mile, but it really took it out of me, i couldnt push myself at all. I think I was still...

Day 4
4. Have a vegan day today. No meat, no eggs, no dairy, no animal products whatsoever. Give it a try!
To be honest, I’m going to try this to the best of my ability but im sure the dumplings I have already prepared for dinner contain some form of animal produce. For breakfast I had a fruit smoothie with soya and for lunch i am having raw veggies on ryvita with soya butter spread so thats all...

So I went for a jog.
All the way around university campus which turns out to be 6.53kms! (just over 4 miles). And it only took me 44 minutes, burning 478 calories.
This is all according to the fitness app on my ipod though so I dont know how accurate that is.
Got back to my flat where all my female flatmates have decided to go on a “no-carb diet” starting tomorrow. There are two things I see a problem...
Day 3
3. Is your UGW in an “unhealthy“ range of BMI?
