Assembly - Place rice paper in a bowl of warm water for 30 seconds, take out and place on a paper towel. Position a 3rd or 4th of the ingredients at the top of the rice paper then fold over the top and if you would like open at one end just fold over one end then keep rolling the rice paper.

Dry July


So over the weekend as you could probably guess, I drank a lot with my friends and ate too much food, which is the reason for no posts :( . So I have decided to do Dry July because it will be a good test of my self control at social occasions. Wine (my favourite drink). Also to be kind to my body, as everybody knows it is a poison and that your body will thank you for eliminating it from your lifestyle for 4 weeks. 

Who is in?

Day 2



Day 2

Today I had what I had for breakfast yesterday but I decided I felt like a smoothie so I made a Banana, Pear, Coconut Water, Flax seed oil and Spinach smoothie. So yummy.

I snacked on a juice & bliss balls.

For my lunch you can see I was on the go so I had my Millet from yesterday and just added - Carrot, Watercress, Chia Seeds, Hummus, Cabbage, Bean Spouts and Sunflower Seeds. I must say for a quick made meal it was delicious. 

Exercise
I went for a 20 minute run & did push ups and crunches. 

I am so excited because tomorrow I am off to try out a Body Beautiful class. I will let you all know how it goes!

Organistion Time


I having been thinking about my goal that I have been setting for a long time now and never scored it. So here goes my challenge:

"To tone up with eating healthy and a balanced diet, also exercising everyday and enjoying the feeling of pushing myself harder."

The reason I thought I should blog about this is because I have been forever yoyoing from diet to diet and it works for a week then fizzles out. I also have been creating inspiration boards every where around my house of other women's bodies, which obviously has not yet work. Now I have turned it around to inspire myself and other people with my journey because I am the only person who knows how I feel when I eat certain foods and look like when I am naked. 

I hope that people get inspired by me to create their own journey. I find that looking at images of yourself and what you ate that day really does put a kick into your determination to keep going. 

Let's do this.
