For the last few weeks I’ve been on a mission to get healthy. I’m exercising five days a week (mixture of yoga, weights and steps) and trying to get out for a walk as often as the weather will allow.
I’ve also been trying to sort out my eating habits. Lots of fruit and veg and nutritious meals. Part of this is to try to sort out my dodgy skin. I’ve got some weird combination of eczema and acne which quite frankly is beginning to piss me off. I started out by cutting out beer (in the all-encompassing alcohol sense of the word rather than just the brown stuff) and having chocolate just once a week as a treat. After three weeks of no booze there didn’t seem to be much in the way of improvement. In fact, I decided that three weeks was long enough and after a challenging day yesterday treated myself to a pint or two. Not sure how good an idea that was so might give it a miss again (once I’ve finished the can of Stella I’ve got sat next to me…).
Apart from that I’m trying to establish whether I’ve got some kind of food intolerance so am cutting out dairy for a couple of weeks. Let’s hope I see some kind of improvement as a result of that, otherwise it will be wheat next.
On a positive note I’ve started to lose some weight and have been feeling pretty good because of the exercise. Will definitely be keeping that up.
