Another week of working and I've still managed to keep my steps up. I purposely find times or excuses to get in those extra steps. I'd volunteer to travel to the other floors of the office for example or walk the longer way to work. I think this is nice because I'm kinda realising that I'm working my regular life around the activity rather than making excuses. I've noticed the speed of which I achieve my steps affects the amount of calories burnt which makes sense. The faster I walk the more I burn.
Another rather silly problem I'm having these days is the heat. It's quickly becoming summer which means I can't just put my big coat on and just not care, I have to wear less which makes me a little self concious. Walking long distances and being comfortable whilst doing it is pretty important. Hopefully over time I'll gain a little more confidence to the point where this doesn't affect me that much. It's amazing how trivial these problems are.
My diet has yet again been terrible. It's actually really got to me today, to the point where I've been pretty angry. I'm going to put the extra effort in to try and have a more balanced diet. I certainly need to cut out all the sugar I've been eating. I actually think I'm going to start that right now. For meals I think I'll just try to eat more well rounded meals with more vegetables.
Here's the results for this week -
Nothing too crazy, it makes me laugh how they're all barely just over 10,000. The reason for this is because I usually leave my phone on my desk when I'm home, so as soon as I have 10,000 it pretty much sees no movement. When I get home and I have lets say 9,000, I'll either go walk the dog or pace around the flat for about 10-20 minutes until I've completed my steps. On a day when I don't plan on leaving the house like today for example, I just go for an extra long walk which usually completed the 10,000 steps.
