Day 12 of New Year New You

Ok here we go with Day 12!  I was talking to a friend about the blog and she said WOW I'm already 12 days behind.  Do I have time to catch up on things?  YES you do!

Following this challenge isn't hard at all so if you are reading this for the first time jump in and enjoy the ride.  We have 19 more days to go!

My Day 11: Made a donation to Susan G Komen, helped a new employee at Crunch, did my best to have no carbs...but Lunch got me. I was in a RUSH to an afternoon meeting, pizza was close and fast.  But Breakfast and Dinner were Carb Free.

Time for Day 12:

Fitness:
Lets go for a walk!  On your way to work, get off the train 1 stop before yours and walk the rest of the way in.  If you are at work reading this, get off the train 1 stop before yours going home and walk the rest of the way.

Take the Stairs ALL DAY!  No Elevators.  Ok unless you work on the 80th floor. HOWEVER take at least 5 flights, then jump on the elevator.

Driving to work- Park at the farthest end of the parking lot and walk to work and yes no elevator for you too.  If you're running errands after work do the same thing park away from the door and walk.


Food:
Since you went Carb free yesterday, today pick up some Power Carbs such as beans.  Beans are loaded with complex carbohydrates – the nutrient that provides energy to the muscles and brain. Just one cup of beans can provide 15 percent of the carbohydrates needed daily and up to 12 grams of fiber.  Plus, beans have the best type of carbohydrate for maximum energy.

 Some well know choices are:

• Lentils
• Black
• Red
• Garbanzo (Chickpeas)

Self Growth: 

Its time for a little L - O - V -E pampering! 

Schedule a massage, manicure and/or pedicure or a hair appoint for this weekend!  This weekend is our half way point of the New Year New You Challenge.  Why not reward yourself with some pampering.
