Starting out my Diet Plan 👩🏻‍🏫

Dieting as a teacher can be painful 😣 I’m constantly tempted to SNACK, teach, EAT, teach, SNACK 🍭 also see Gained weight after starting work 😫

Here are some routines I built into my new work schedule:

1. Getting an Apple Watch ⌚️

- especially useful to track active calories (seem pretty accurate too)

- tasting small successes is important to maintain motivation levels

2. Fixing a gym schedule

- I need to go to the gym at least twice a week to be able to break even with the cost I paid per month.

- This forces me to squeeze out 2 x 45mins slot in my week for gym (and usually this 45 mins will extend because I’m like since I’m already here, let’s do more)

3. Social Exercising

- instead of eating out constantly, why not change things and exercise together! It is an alternative form of bonding and honestly, helps you set some goals for yourself while exercising

- eg I signed up for a 5km run, and because of it, I’ve been training for it more during that month.

4,5,6. Eating Healthy

- Eat foods with low GI (eg wholemeal, whole grain)! They make you feel fuller for a longer period of time, reducing hunger strikes

- Source for health options outside, and if unavailable, pack your own lunch
