I often get caught in a sugar trap, I have a few weeks where I tend to eat a bit more sweat treats than necessary. As I looked through my food journal, I realized that I have had a bit of a junk food fest the last couple of weeks. I guess that is the honesty of a food journal because you really get to see what you are putting in your body.
Anyway, I decide to go on a bit of a detox and get my self back on track. I realized that I was putting in about 150 sugary calories about 4 days a week. It does not seem like a lot but that 2400 calories a month. Which can easily convert to a pound if you add in any other splurges. In addition to that, also noticed that I was making those splurges at night. So I was hungry and fueling my self with an unfulfilling snack.
Sugar is addictive and it has always been a weakness for me. So I know that I have to be careful because I can easily fall back in to old habits. My detox is not one where I am attempting to rid my system so much of toxin. I am actually just reinforcing good habit by eating clean and reducing my processed sugar intake. So I still consume natural sugars from fruits and vegetables.
Mixing up my workouts have been fun, I am planning to write up a workout plan for myself. That way I have a month of workouts prepared. In addition to that I am planning a photo shoot for my anniversary. Its time for some new family photos, the pictures we have in our home don't resemble the new me.
I am headed out for a workout, have you gotten off the couch today?
