Fitness Friday Q&A



No I'm not running out of ideas. Yes I did promise you recipes, but I'm still in the process of identifying the edible ones as I don't to be the blame for death. They are on their way, I promise but I'm still experimenting and I also am incredibly busy with university.

But for now, I thought I'd have a quick Q and A about my fitness journey.

Q: When did you actually start your fitness journey?
A: Subconsciously, I guess when I started to walk to campus, and although it doesn't seem like a lot,
     walking 1,8 km to campus and back almost everyday at the beginning was no small feat.

Q: What kind of physical activities do you do?
A: Apart from walking to campus, I use a gym app and then run at least 2-3 times a week.

Q: What are your fitness goals?
A: In the long run I'd like to run the two oceans marathon, But at the moment I'm trying to be
     healthier and more athletic.

Q: If your past self met the new you, what do you think she would say?
A: I'd like to think that while she would be 'shook', I would like to hope that she'd admire the journey
     I'm on.

Q: What are you most proud of with regards to the changes that you have made?
A: Honestly, I'm most proud that I'm staying committed, but also that I'm eating healthy food that are
     more out of my comfort zone.

Q: Have you noticed any improvements from the changes you have made to your lifestyle?
A: Absolutely, and the results are not only visible in my physical activity but also in my perseverance
     and endurance have increased in leaps and bounds.

Q: What is the one thing that keeps you motivated?
A: Whenever I'm wanting to give up, I just think "Damn, Bikini season will be awesome!" and then I
     carry on. Rather superficial, I know but if it works then it works. 😉

That's all for now, sorry if it was slightly boring and short, am under pressure with the amount of work I have to do. Anyway, have a great weekend.

I Drank 2 Liters of Water every Day for 30 Days... Here's What Happened

Image
"I believe that water is the only drink for a wise man" -    Henry David Thoreau Hello, my little chickadee dickadees! How have you been? Haven't spoken in a while, but let's be honest I battled to blog every week. My life is so crazy with my Honours degree that I barely even have time for myself, let alone time to think up a blog post. Yet here we are… It occurred to me last month that a simple solution to my writer's block was to try something new every month and report back on what happened. So I decided to up the amount of water I was drinking for 30 days. This meant drinking 2litres of water a day for 30 days. This only refers to the intake of water, not coffee or tea. To be honest, I probably drank more than two litres (other beverages included), but I wanted to focus on a round, seemingly attainable number. 2 Litres seemed doable to me. Over time, water replaced soft drinks and I actually started to like the taste of ice-cold water, especi

Motivational Tuesday: Making a Comeback After a Setback

Image
Hi guys, so today I'm going to get really serious with you. Recently I experienced a really bad setback. Experiencing a set back really really sucks. You work really hard to get something, yet you miss it. And it sucks, it just sucks. So how do I deal with setbacks? Before I even start figuring out how I am going to get through it, I have a plethora of negative thoughts, which unfortunately is part of my nature, which I'm trying to work on. Unfortunately being a first year, everything is kind of thrown at you all at once. And when you face a setback as a first year, it all seems worse. Well I sit and cry for about an hour, then I snack on any junk food I can find and take a nap for at least an hour. Then I wake up and I feel slightly better, but I still have that sucky feeling. Ya know what I'm saying. S I get up, take a breath and workout, to try and blow off some steam. Take a shower, surround myself with people who love me and support me, then begin

Fitness Friday: The things I've Learned So Far...

Image
Nobody is perfect... That being said, everyone makes mistakes once in a while. I know I have. So I thought I share the more valuable lessons I've learned by making the mistakes I have.  Look at this picture... What is wrong with it? No, it's not that one woman is skinny and her diet only consists of fruits and vegetables, whilst the other  is over There's a reason why I hate the word diet. Google defines diet aweight and only eats junk food. Here's what's wrong: Why not BOTH? s " a special course of food to which a person restricts themselves, either to lose weight or for medical reasons". I don't know if this will make sense, but I feel that it's not fair to force yourself to give up the food you love. I have a loving relationship with food and I don't believe in forcing yourself to give up what you love as it's not the route to happiness. Moderation is key to incorporating these foods into your diet (btw, I'm
