My food and fit low down

Christmas has come and gone, and here we find ourselves halfway through the first month of 2013. 2013!!! I don't think I ever dreamed as a child what I might do in 2013.

With the newyear, and aided by recently giving birth, I find myself a few kgs heavier than I should be and need to be. Quite a few.

So I'm back on the wagon of a slightly modified low-carb/low gi diet. I break the regular rules, like I still drink coffee and I still have cream and brown sugar on my oatmeal each morning. I even often have a cream and berries snack at night when the kids are in bed.

But what I do works. Its modified because I am breast-feeding, so I have to think about the nutrition of Mr E too. Otherwise I would b more intense.

So I had about 15kg to lose and I've shed 3. Hopefully mid year I will reach my goal. Anything under 70kg will be good for now, I think then I will fit most of my clothes.

The thing I find hard, is fitting in the time to exercise... I mean, how do you do it with 3 kids 3 and under? Maybe if I get up super early but that's laughable at the moment. Night is out cause thats feed feed feed time for bubs. I wish I had a treadmill!!

Anyway, that's the little challenge I face and I'm going to try to fit in a decent walk at least 3 days a week by the end of this month. I could try the #mileaday which the beautiful paisleyjade does...  search it on instagram.

For now I'll leave you with that, a good walk 3 times a week by 31 january. Its not a resolution, its a return to health and being fit after a rocky pregnancy, an emergency cesar and followed by a traumatic couple of months.

Will post in how im getting on ;-)
