On Monday I reached the 2/3 point of my 66 day challenge. In 44 days I have completed a yoga class, been running, and/or done sun salutations at home, on all but 3 days. I’ve now been intermittent fasting for a week and I’ve also not been drinking in the week. Although my weight has … Continue reading Day 44/66
Sunday’s plan was to return to London for the 3pm 90 minute Bikram yoga class but I wasn’t back in time as I was restricted by train times. Instead I got back in time for a 75 minute wheel therapy class at 5pm and what a blessing this was. The class involved a lot of … Continue reading Day 43/66
I had plans to visit my friend this weekend and as it was out of London my plan was to get to the 08:30 AM 60 minute Bikram class on Saturday and back into London for the 15:00 class on Sunday. I have only ever done a few 08:30 AM yoga classes as I normally … Continue reading Day 42/66
Friday was another busy day but because of this yoga challenge I had my sights on getting to the last class of the day. On Fridays this class is Bikram method with music and the lights down low. It was with another teacher whose classes I love but for very different reasons. They are hard … Continue reading Day 41/66
Thursday was my 4th day of intermittent fasting. Giles has joined me on this eating plan too which makes things a lot easier. Although he gets VERY HANGRY, so that has to be kept in mind so that we keep irritablity and snapping at bay! I had set my alarm to run before work but … Continue reading Day 40/66
On Wednesday morning Giles and I started the day with a 35 minute walk together. It’s a very simple start to the day but I really appreciate that time together. We talk about our weeks and it gives me a sense of connection that I like. At this point things started to go downhill a … Continue reading Day 39/66
Day two of intermittent fasting and today I managed to get my exercise back on track. I started the day with 5 rounds of sun salutations prior to breaking my 16 hour fast. In the evening I went to Bikram yoga, and I think it was one of the first 90 minute classes I have … Continue reading Day 38/66
Over drinks and discussions on Sunday I learnt a bit about Intermittent Fasting, an eating pattern where you eat for 8 hours a day and fast for 16. My brother, mum and step-dad have been eating like this and have had good results. Reading about it I have learned that Intermittent Fasting (IF) results in … Continue reading Day 37/66
The bachelorette continued on Sunday with brunch and mimosas! Then a late lunch with my mum, step dad and brother. More booze involved. I didn’t exercise all day, forgot to do any sun salutations and so this was my 2nd complete rest day in the last 36 days. Not exactly the plan, but certainly not … Continue reading Day 36/66
On Friday night my ‘no drinking in the week’ went out the window somewhat! In fact on Friday night, Saturday, Saturday night and Sunday there were quite a few drinks had, but I was having a great time with family so it was definitely worth it. The bachelorette party was so great, heaps of fun, … Continue reading Day 35/66
