Exercising in the Autumn and Winter

It has been a while since writing in this blog because my exercise regime has changed. I play football each week with my son or rugby. I walk wherever I can, and use a Crosstrainer when in my son's home in Epsom, and use this whilst I am waiting for him to return from school. 

My diet has changed and it not all good, I still crave chocolate, but I will have good home cooked food thanks to my family and make sure I still have breakfast and jotted down today on my food habits and making progress. I am not spending a lot of food, and I am thankful for that, and cut down on waste. This all helps with motivation to stay active, and it is nothing strenuous, but helps clear my mind and get rid of the cobwebs.

Exercise is about moving the body, and so making sure I do get some, but I stop with the guilt. This just I have realised demotivates me and so I exercise when I want to and have a treat, but not too much, and make sure I do have vegetables and fruits to help me. It is about being healthy and not size and just writing makes me feel a ease, rather than under pressure.

I enjoy playing football with my son and I am sure we will play some today. That should what exercise should be, doing some that feels good and even though it can take a lot of persuading, once it is done it you wake you up and want to do it again. 

As it gets colder it can hit you like knife when it is super cold, but for my it is really good weather, just be careful of frost because this can make the pavement slippery but I like the fact I can layer up and let my feet take me. 

So lets get outdoors and grab a coffee on the way, and reward yourself as you do. 

I have a new book published. It is called Mum&me and is available from Amazon and available to read on Kindle: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mum-Me-Gucci-Tits-Virtue-ebook/ and paperback. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mum&Me 

Many thanks for reading,
