As of yesterday I had to integrate some lifestyle
changes, pretty big ones actually, by my standards anyway! I’ve suffered for a
long time with knee pain, which is a result of an injury in earlier life, and
recently it’s got to the point where I’m in a lot of pain. So after seeing a physio
yesterday lunch time, I’ve had to integrate an exercise routine and diet to
support my muscles and make them get stronger. On top of this I’ve had to
integrate a weight loss diet. I’m fairly overweight at the moment and it’s
impacting on my knees and back! I’ve tried this a few times but my knee injuries
have stopped me exercising, so now I have a physio, a personal trainer and a
dietician to make things happen! I’ve had to cut out any unnatural ingredients
and sugars, ditch any cold drinks excluding water and homemade fruit juices and
switch to green tea. I’ve had to integrate foods like Dates into my diet and
other super foods that are well known for their success rate with weak muscles!
I’ve had to change my eating routine, cutting all carbs out of my diet after
2pm and increase my protein intake as well as my green vegetables! They are possibly things I should have already
been doing, but all sorts of things have got in the way, so it’s time to
implement them and kick myself out the rut!
Why am I telling you this? Well you lovely
ladies know that I love blogging and this will be a big part of my life, so I
think I’m going to start a healthy lifestyle section on this blog! I think there are a lot of blogs about this
around but I’m not sure how many around are newbies trying out things for the
first time! Hopefully they’ll be
informative to read and if not you’ll probably laugh at my healthy virginity! So
I’ll be blogging about my experiences as well as my beauty posts and lifestyle
posts!
