Try not to be too worried about not eating certain foods. My trainer keeps telling me that I should be having some protein with everything I eat... so if I have an apple for morning tea then I should have some yoghurt or cottage cheese too. Our body needs to use the energy from out carbs to turn the protein into usable energy, so we are using up more of our food just to get the energy from it. I hope that makes sense!
By that reasoning, Snacks, bacon and eggs is fine sometimes as it has lots of protein, you would just need to keep your fat down for the rest of the day. That cheesecake would be alright too Nadine (provided you can stop yourself eating the whole thing...something I am not very good at), just maybe use light cheese when you make it. If it has ricotta or cream chesse then the low fat ones aren't too bad for your waistline at all.
Do those of you who run take prams? I like running and try to go a couple of times a week to do 5km or occasionally 10km when I can leave the kids with DH, but I am having trouble motivating myself to go pushing the boys. I just seem to tense my shoulders too much and get a sore neck. Maybe I should start with 2 or 3km with the pram and work up again? Practice relaxing while I push.
Nadine, you will never again hurt as much as you did when you started with your trainer. I couldn't sit on the toilet properly ar walk up stairs without holding the railing after my first session.Now I only get sore enough to know I have done a great workout but not so much that I am in constant pain.
It sounds like you are doing really well!!
