Hi there and welcome to update FIVE of the Health & Exercise series, my last update to you was July 7th which was my 28th birthday and since then have really abandoned this blog and hardly shared anything. September I aim to change that and I figured before August 2015 is completely gone I should share a few updates starting with the this monthly series.   Since end of June I have not really done any exercises of any sort, unless you count walking to and from work as exercise. I have been slacking big time and for me my…

So today is my birthday, whooray!!! I can not believe how fast 28 has found me. I am grateful for everything I have, do not have, for the people in my life and for those who are not. I was taught, everything for a reason and everything at its own time. Sometimes it is hard to appreciate such words when you had a plan in mind, sometimes we forget that we are not in charge someone up above is and once we allow him to take the lead all falls into place like dominoes. For the last 30 days I…

They say better late than never and I am practising that like a professor. I made a decision over two months ago to share my health and exercise monthly updates with you and this post was meant to go live on the 28th of May but I was too tired up to even consider writing it so I thought I do that today. Again I would definitely love to start by saying I have been hard at work but that would be fibs again. Since our last update {APRIL UPDATE}I managed to skip over to Seoul, south korea where I…

I would like to start this post and say that for the last FOUR weeks I have been hard at work on my health and exercise goals but that will be telling fibs. Ever since my last 2x 5k runs I did last month I have not attempted to do another because the pain my poor old legs felt it was like no other. I was sore for a week at least before I started to feel like me again, I am sure those of you who do exercise are saying I should have continued and persevered through and continue…

A few weeks ago I was minding my own business when I went to the bathroom to shower and noticed the landlord had bought a new weight scale. As you do when a scale is watching you, you step on it and see how much pain you can inflict though in the end you feel the pinch and not the weight. So I stepped up onto the scale because it challenged me to and the numbers that appeared kind of shocked me big time. My weight has always fluctuated between 65kilo and 70kilo but this particular saturday evening the scale…

When you think about healthy habits, what comes to mind? Do you think about your eating habits and question if you are eating healthy enough? Or do you think about the last time you exercise or went to the gym? Or do you completely ignore it because being healthy is different for everybody? I am guilty of these three, I check what I eat when I am talking about being healthy and also ask myself the last time I exercised and not necessary going to the gym but any simple exercise at home. When all else fails then I feel…
