Have a rest day and enjoy it!!! I find rest days the hardest because I have a lot more time to think about yummy food! But remember to focus on the other great things in your day, the weather, being around friends or family or your favourite TV programme. Just relax and let your body recover! Make plans to go out for a coffee or drink with friends (soda water, herbal tea, or black coffee of course) and really live in the moment, you will soon forget about that bad food. I find reading articles helps to take my mind off cravings.
My Food Intake Today
Breakfast: Protein Pancakes made with Kumara not banana. Was still yummy! One small kiwifruit. Handful of nuts.
Snack: Chicken meat pattie from last nights burgers.
Lunch: Fried greens, two leftover chicken patties from last nights burgers. One 'Paleo Biscuit' (see recipe in recipe section).
Dinner: Two egg omelette with tomato, bacon strips and red onion. Broccoli, leeks and brussel sprouts.
* Starting the day with a higher carbohydrate intake was very different. I felt hungry all day for carbohydrates. I actually missed my protein and green vegetables for breakfast.
Although it was a rest day I still went for a walk and did a short home workout to keep the body moving. I did 150 squats and 150 sit ups for time.
