I'm feeling a bit blurgh. Scales are up a little bit, I've had a weekend of parties and energy is low. So I've decided to do 5 great days.

(I'm actually planning to do 5 great days this week and then do a public Fast 5 Challenge next week as we kick off week 1 of our next 28 day challenge).

I'm  looking forward to feel amazing sometime real soon.

My plan is:

Fast until 11am each day minimum and focus on protein, lot's of veggies and good fats. My main focus is to get my hormones balanced again. I can add a little protein ice cream (home made) each night if I want to or have it instead of the yoghurt.

Monday:
- Pilates reformer and rebounder (max 1 hour)
- 2 coffees + 2 dandelion teas
- 2 sausages and salad with dressing
- Protein yoghurt + Fruit + coconut flakes or seeds
- Bolognese + stir fried cabbage

Tuesday:
- Pilates reformer and rebounder (max 1 hour total)
- 2 coffees + 2 dandelion teas
- 2 eggs and zucchini
- Protein yoghurt + Fruit + coconut flakes or seeds
- Poached salmon and veggies

Wednesday:
- Walk or rebound
- 2 coffees + 2 dandelion teas
- Leftover poached fish and veggies
- Protein yoghurt + Fruit + coconut flakes or seeds
- Bunless Burger

Thursday:
- Pilates reformer and rebounder (max 1 hour total)
- 2 coffees + 2 dandelion teas
- Bunless Burger
- Protein yoghurt + Fruit + coconut flakes or seeds
- Out for dinner and drinks. Make a dinner choice that will keep my hormones balanced. Choose drinks that aren't high in sugar. I'd love to have beer but I don't think it will serve my goals so I'll have either red wine or some sort of soda water and spirit. Maybe I'll have 1 beer then switch to something more supportive. Will decide this Thursday morning.
- Family will have butter chicken for dinner with rice and veggies.

Friday:
- Pilates reformer and rebounder (max 1 hour total)
- 2 coffees + 2 dandelion teas
- Leftover butter chicken and veggies.
- Protein yoghurt + Fruit + coconut flakes or seeds
- Some sort of seafood and salad. Maybe fish or squid.

I'll plan my weekend meals on Thursday before the weekend arrives.

Power Thoughts:
I'm looking forward to feeling amazing.
I can't wait for all that energy.
Gosh I love how I feel when I live this way.
This is what I want to gift myself.
I enjoy eating super delicious foods.
Doing this work will create my goal results.
I can absolutely do this and I AM doing this. This is what I want for myself.
I feel excited for my future.

Obstacles that might get in my way:
Cookies with my tea - no thanks, not for me this week.
Handful of nuts - no thank you, not for me this week.
2 squares of chocolate - no thank you, not for me this week.
Getting a bit too relaxed and party-y on Thursday night - I'll set my plan, create options for me that will help me towards my goals.
Not planning the weekend - I will absolutely plan my weekend, not just vaguely (that can be sneaky) but in detail. I will have some great mantras to say to myself over and over on the weekend.

Things that will help me this week:
Have salads made ahead in the fridge (I think having 3 'make ahead' salad recipes in my planner will help long term.
Having 'make ahead' veggie recipes and some made and in the fridge. Making veggies every time they are on my plan is such a drag and can become an obstacle for me. I will be prepared this week.
Tracking in my journal will be super helpful too.

I think that's it.

I'm ready.

Let's do this!
