I did a food journal for 2 days for my trainer this week and came to the conclusion that I do not eat enough throughout the day most days. Eating very little or at odd times will slow down your metabolism, I know I have messed my metabolism up this way. Often I begin my day with a banana and an Advocare Spark. Then I drink water until I have a lunch of something like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, then I won't eat again until after I work out in the gym. Dinner tends to be late, snacking at home or I eat out. I have realized that what I eat isn't enough fuel for a good workout so I have set a goal to make some changes.
Tomorrow I will begin the Advocare 24 Day Challenge along with my workouts. It will give my body a jump start towards getting healthy. I'll start with a 10 day cleanse, carefully watching what I eat. No red meat, no sugar, no dairy, no alcohol. So I will be eating lots of vegetables, some fruit and some lean meat such as chicken and fish. I have stocked my fridge and washed the vegetables for my lunch tomorrow. The cleanse is all natural, easy on the body and by the end of those 10 days you feel better and have more energy. This is my 3rd cleanse this year, the first time I lost 14lbs and the second time I lost 11.
I hope to have even better results this time as I had not been working out at all this past year. So I will post the results, lets all hope for the best.
