Making healthy choices

The whole process will consist of two parts. First I want to control what I eat and secondly I want to exercise regularly. At least 5 times a week.

For the food part I have been to a nutritionist already a few weeks ago and she gave me some really good advice. I just never followed it. And I want to make myself more aware of what I put into my body. Especially when it comes to carbohydrates and fat. I don't want to cut it completely but try to make healthy choices.

I am starting my day with two slices of corn bread with a small amount of butter (no salt) and slices of banana instead of jam or honey. I want to make sure that I have enough energy to start my day and reduce the intake of carbs to the morning hours. This is really delicious.
I also decided to skip my coffee and have some tea instead. I am taking my breakfast with me to the office and I am drinking office-coffee which I can only have with cream instead of milk. When I stood at the machine I realized that this was not a healthy choice. So I went back and got the green tea I always keep at my desk. Green tea is also supposed to support the fat burning process. I don't know if this is true. I drink because I like it.

I brought some snacks with me for the day. I plan on eating 5-6 times a day which is boosting the fat burning process throughout the day. At least this is what I read. For snacks I have the second part of my banana, two tomatos and some cucumber.

Since I am eating my lunch at the cantine today I ordered a salad. This is the healthiest thing I can get there. I will try to prepare my meals in advance and take it with me for lunch more often. But I know that this will not always work. I need a good alternative and the salad seems to be a good option.

For tonight I am planning on going to a Lifetraining session. I have not been there for weeks. Wednesday has always been my favourite day to go there so I will take the opportunity that today is actually wednesday :).

I will keep you posted.

xoxo
