It's been a while since I've written and that's another reason for writing now I feel!
I continued the 15 day Reboot with Joe plan and then transitioned off it for a further 5 days. I didn't want to end it, but I knew I was going away and couldn't imagine I could keep it going during that time. Plus, I was finding the cost of being on the plan to be somewhat above my normal food budget (at least double what I normally spend!), so something had to change. So whilst I felt so good on the juice, and lost a lot of weight (12lbs in all - in just 3 weeks!), I couldn't keep going with it.
I vowed to drink juice every day, but that hasn't materialised sadly, with life and busyness getting generally in the way...
But I did find it helped me get myself back on track and adopted my thinking to a more healthy way of living and eating. I haven't been perfect - far from it - but I am now generally eating less, eating healthier options and have tried incorporating a lot more 'superfoods' into my diet. I am still keeping the weight off and still feel pretty good. I'm not half as tired as I used to feel!
So whilst I need to keep developing my healthy eating habits, I also need to work on finding ways to exercise more. I've started doing some Yoga again, but sporadically. I've also tried to get up early, as early as 5am when I can, to give myself the extra hours for self-development that I need. I just need a plan again I think as without one, it's hard to maintain anything!
I'm also keen to clear out my home of all the unnecessary stuff that fills the corners and cupboards. After our move this year to a tiny new home, I have given away so much and really whittled my belongings down, but it still feels like there are things clogging up the home, and it is these areas that I would like to look at.
So... lots to think about and plans to be made but we're off in the right direction!
