Hocus Pocus, it's time to reFOCUS!

Aaah, yes, you can see why I'm not a poet.

With work being so darned busy and not a moment's breathing space lately, it's been really hard to maintain a focus on the things that are important to me... ie, my personal goals.

Where everyone else seems to lose weight when they get stressed, I tend to get a little 'stress' belly. This little puffy pouch that sits in front. Mmmm. nice. not.

So, in the interests of my sanity and body, I am going to refocus. Get back on track and kick my butt back into gear to ensure everything that passes my lips is what I had intended for that day. No hidden extras. Workouts will step up a notch (glute allowing) and nothing will get in my way.

I am planning out my next four weeks of exercise & diet - I might incorporate the Turbulence Training workouts into my routines now. I had the whole thing printed out, but loaned to my sister...who isn't speaking to me right now because I am so selfish with my 'spare' time.. What spare time, I ask? But I digress.

Watch this space!

food..

today's food:
1/3c oatmeal, 8 strawberries, vanilla protein shake (with skim)

1 metabolism advantage peanut butter protein bar

1/3rd of a whole chick breast coated with pistachio & sesame seed 'dukkah' & grilled with a drizzle of lime infused olive oil (www.pukaraestate.com.au)
Salad leaves with dressing of 1/2tsp of lime infused olive oil & balsamic - This is the BEST dressing. The Lime is just gorgeous and the balsamic just brings it more to life.

1/2c natural low fat yoghurt with about 12 raw mixed nuts & some frozen berries - about the last 8 or so in the pack (sob). Time to go shopping!

Dinner will be :
Grilled Lamb with spinach leaves & tomatoes with raspberry vinegar dressing.
