What a lovely Sunday I've had today, no frost on the car this morning (yes that does help my day to start well), kids playing nicely (well, as nice as can be expected at 3 & 5 yrs) and a wee family day out to a museum (yawn.... - food was good though). However I've managed to ruin the whole day by eating a WHOLE tube of sour cream pringles and now feel pretty ghastly!
The thing is I decided this morning that I was going to get back on track and drink 2 litres of water a day and eat much more healthy. With things being so busy lately with work I've just been on the go all the time. The signs are telling in the condition of my skin with it starting to dry out and no amount of moisturising helping which means it's completely dehydrated.... ....and now those Pringles are really taking effect....
So what are the first steps towards my healthy action plan?
1) Drink 2 litres of water a day including a hot water and lemon in the morning. This remedy has been said to help cure eczema as well as the common cold - I'll let you know
2) Increase my fruit intake and try eating fruit every morning for breakfast. Apparantly eating fruit in the morning helps give the body loads of energy, plus the water from the fruit helps cleanse and hydrate (and adds to that 2 litres I NEED to drink every day)
3) Start my exercise regime again. Now that the days are getting warmer and the sun is making some sort of appearance, albeit for a few minutes, I need to get back to training for a half marathon. That said my marathon running partner has another commitment in Sept when we planned to run this race so maybe I'll just train and run it next year, I'm not sure I'm motivated enough to run it on my own and my husband runs way way too fast for me
You know just thinking about this "healthy plan" has stopped me from feeling quite so ill after eating all those pringles, now where's that bottle of coke, no point starting in the evening;-)
