Weight in!

Just a quick update on the whole healthy lifestyle journey I am taking. I have been reading more about the Fast and Feast diet that I mentioned in my last post about health and have also been counting calories every day for the first time ever. Turns out that actually in my normal diet I don't actually consume that many calories and so on 'good' days I eat within the 2000 a day recommended calorie count for females. So I will go as planned with the fast and feast diet as I need to loose some weight. I am not going to be as strict as some plans say to be and I am not only going to eat once on the fast day.

I have stuck to about 2000 calories a day so hopefully I wont be gaining weight just not loosing it! And I have dramatically cut back on the chocolate, biscuits and cake! I have set my self the goal of exercising 5 days out of every 7, power walking or aerobics depending on the weather and circumstances. It's a bit early to say how well (or not) I'm doing on this one but I am determined to stick with it this time.
