So exercise. Yeah. It is tricky being regular with this. So we changed our thinking a little and it has helped. Used to be concerned about how far we ran (we have a treadmill). But have decided to concentrate on time instead and calories burnt. I have discovered that when I walk (at 7km/h) uphill I burn nearly twice as many calories as when i run on a flat surface at 11km/h. Pretty cool, but obviously I don’t go as far! Exercise is addictive, totally addictive!
So cutting down on sugar is tough. But we definitely did a pretty good job. Daniel did much better than me. After a couple of days of no sugar, i had a bite of brownie and the sugar hit me really fast and I felt a little sick actually. That was just from one bite! And then last night I ate a couple of meringues. They were good! And full of sugar. But all in all, we have found ourselves not being too excited about eating sweet stuff and I can’t buy stuff with artificial preservatives and flavour in them anymore. Funny how you can train your mind. It seems that is the key to healthy eating.
