When you go on holiday your 12wbt plan shouldn't





Last weekend I went away on an amazing weekend and stayed on track .  When going on holidays your diet doesnt need to go on a diet either. You dont need to let your diet slip.   We all put a lot of hard work into our clean eating and exercise regime so we cant let a few days break set us back.


If you plan your camp diet right making sure your food intake is pre organised then being out enjoying nature should not be a reason to run of the rails. It all comes back to being organised like a boy scout be prepared.  I just got back from 4 days fwd in the snow  bbbrrr it was freezing.  Some tips i did to be organised. I pre organised my dinners in tupperware containers and froze them before hand. So i just had to grab them out of the esky and heat on the campfire.  pumpkin bean curry/ Penang Chicken and bunless burgers yummo.

Because we had a long weekend with lots of outdoor activities included the first meal of the day had to be packed full of energy. So for breaky I had porriage. How things have changed going back 6 months ago it would have been a couple of egg bacon cheese sandwiches for breaky. Now its 50grams of porriage and a tub of soliel yoghurt while camping.


Morning Tea was a banana they have healthy sugar and fats which helps me feel fuller longer.

Lunch consisted of tuna and salad which is easy cause theirs no cooking. Also chicken walnut grape salad which is my favourite. I took little snap lock bags of precooked chicken pieces which makes it also a non cooking lunch.
I find that tuna for lunch is full of good muscle food which helps get me thru to dinner.


An old camping habit was chocolate self saucing pudding in a can boiled on campfire with custard. Whoppa calories.  Everybody this weekend had this while i found nestle dairy dessert soleil diet chocolate mouse on 62 calories. So i didnt feel like i was missing out. ( but must watch the sodium levels are quite high)

What do you do to be organised before going on holidays.

ps also me and my girlfriend did some burpees in the snow. I thought they were hard on the sand at bootcamp but knee high in snow is nearly impossible

KAKODA CHALLENGE MELBOURNE TRAINING

This morning i feel from the effort of yesterdays training. On the 28th of October a group of 4 of us our participating in the 30ks kakoda Challenge Over Mount Dandenong, So yesterday we did our first big training session or it.  We did 20ks of the 30k walk. During the challenge they give you  9 hours to compete the challenge and yesterday our fantastic team completed 20ks in just under 5 hours. Got to be happy with that.   Leg burn like i have never felt leg burn before. The hills were a killer but the weather was kind and this morning my legs are definately letting me now they are alive and didnt agree with the torture i pervailed on them yesterday. But in the Kakoda spirit the 4 of us completed our mission for the day. I bit confused though lol helen and I wore our polars and she burnt 500 cal more than I what is that. All in all a great day with great friends. A BIT ABOUT KAKODA CHALLENGE MELBOURNE On sunday 28th of Octo...

I saw this post yesterday and just love everything about it. It goes with everything i believe. This journey is forever and it has to be sustainable. Its forever. I am also a massive believer that you cannot out train a bad diet. A bit of chocolate on Easter Bunny day is not going to set back your goals unless you go on a long weekend hot cross buns and easter egg binge. Also i doubt if you would put on 2 or 3 kg for having a couple of eggs or hot cross buns if you are training the right way and you have built a healthy metabolism. I believe that we need to enjoy special days as long as we keep them in to days and not extend them into weeks and months. (The time of year has come where Facebook is flooded with posts about how much sugar chocolate has, how many calories your favourite Easter egg has, and how long it's going to take to burn it off. Of course, it's a great idea for our health not to consume too much added sugars in our die...

Theres always room for improvement

I have learnt alot from 12wbt but the biggest lesson i have learnt is that i have realised that i dont have to be a perfect weight watcher to achieve my goals i just have to be persistant and persevere and keep them in sight. Also once one goal is achieved always have another one. Something to work towards and keep you on track. My goals that i have achieved so far with 12wbt have been to loose half my body weight, wear a size 12 dress to finale on stage, learn how to swim, toe push ups, complete tought mudder and to conquer the monekey bars. At the start i thought my goals would never happen. I had to practice my new behaviours until they became auto pilot. I say to myself when i slip up its not because i have no control it because i need to practice dealing with that particular situation that made me run of track. Through my whole journey i have kept my goals very close to my heart and in focus. Your Goals are you key tool in this whole journey. They are what keep you motivated ...
