lose 2 kilos (read all 4 entries…)
more exercise and less sweets :) 1 year ago

this is an old story in my life: every year I gain about 2 kilos during autumn and winter, so when spring and summer arrive (btw, my favorite seasons) I feel somewhat uncomfortable wearing lighter clothes and showing that little weight I gained.

I get the extra weight from 2 things:
1. I neglect sports,
2. I eat too many sweets and in general unnecessary yummy stuff while working (and the worst thing is that I work at a desk, so I don’t move that much and have plenty of excuses to eat when I am frustrated with work!).

Of course 2 kilos is not that terrible, I know, but I like being fit, especially in the summer when I love going to the beach or the swimming pool.

So here is the plan:
1. exercise more
(a. I have just started again my usual aerobics and exercise courses at the university, yay!, b. go swimming with the lifeguard team again!! c. use my bike more often)
2. eat more consciously, not just get something every time I feel anxious or stressed out

I've been using this

for years and YES: it really works. :) I have my ever-present bottle of water on my desk every day and most of the time I drink just out of habit.
But unfortunately, when I’m under pressure I tend to eat on top of that… You know, the usual chocolate, chips and other evil yummies, hehehe

Yes

but, although I like natural, organic food in general, these snacks do not really satisfy my stress-induced attacks of nervous hunger. Oh well, at least I exercise 3 times a week now, which really reduces tension and all :) I go to my workout classes at the end of the afternoon, so after that I sleep like a baby!
