I have just taken delivery of the first food order for my new 'diet'. I have never been on a diet in my life and this isn't a diet but rather an eating plan. I found it online on a body sculpting website and thought I'd give it a go. The reason I picked this one is because it wasn't made up of a whole lot of weird and wacky foods that I wouldn't ordinarily eat! As you can see, lots and lots of whole foods!
So I've just spent the last 90 minutes, weighing, measuring, slicing and dicing. Yep, you heard right - weighing and measuring! For the next 4 weeks I'm going to become one of those freaks who weighs their food!!! Exciting!!!! At least it will be exciting until the novelty wears off!
Why am I doing it? Because everyone who knows anything says that getting in shape is done in the kitchen. So I'm basically out to see if it works. I'm going to give it 4 weeks to start with and see how I go. I'd like to think I will do it for longer than that but I'm starting with a small, achievable goal!
Along with the nutrition plan is a new body sculpting gym program! Basically upper and body workouts to be done 3-4 times a week. I'm going to combine it with at least 45mins of cardio per day. I'm also doing a 4 week crunch challenge, working up to 130 crunches by June 30!
Basically I'm committing to 4 weeks (to start with) to see if it actually does anything. If it does, I'll keep going. If I doesn't.........?
Of course I need to be careful as I am still exclusively breastfeeding Matilda and I really don't want my milk supply to be affected. So I'll keep a close eye on that one.
