happy

Step by Step.

Getting a little closer to the best version of myself!

Take your time. Breathe. And keep moving forward.

I gained loads of weight. 

But although it does not define my worth or personality, 

I am keen on losing it (because being overweight is not really healthy, is it?)

I am definitely a carbie :D

So I want to try the Starch Solution - way of eating.

I really liked rawtill4 but I think it is better to fuel yourself that way in summer.

Starch Solution is a "diet" concept by Dr. McDougall

Its HCLF, too. 

I ate yesterday that way and when I woke up today I had really really good mood :)

I was at a birthday party today, so the todays dinner wasn´t the way it should have been. 

But whatever. 

Plan for tomorrow: 

BF: 1/2 cup oats with 1 tbsp carob powder

1 Banana

few strawberries

L: buckwheat with cucumber and tomatoes 

1 persimmon 

D: huge salad (with rice or potatoes) 

3 dates 

I wanna workout too! But not sure if I wanna go running or do a 45 Cardia Sculpting workout at home. I think I will just have a look at the weather and if my knee hurts.

Have a good night lovelies.

not so detoxed

Good evening y´all!
Although I did not detox today, I ate quite "healthy". 
In my opinion it was still too much, but 70% of the calories could be considered as good ones :) 
Some strange things did happen, but I hope those were only an exception. 

#PDOTD (=Positive detail of the day) 
I heard a nice song in the radio today & I cooked for me and my brother :)

Plans for tomorrow: 
Probably wake up around 8 a.m. 
Read my summaries and have a breakfast 
Drive to university
Go on studying there
Write my exam 
Go tutoring 
RUNNING <3
Visit friends of the family -.- 

Planned food: 
big bowl of millet and oats with dried figs, carob and a green smoothie 
750 ml Mango-Smoothie from truefruits
750 ml Green Smoothie 
some starches when we are at attendance 

I just hope that the exam and attendance will be fine tomorrow...

University and stuff

3 of 4 exams are already written :) 

Have the last one on Thursday and then I'll have to write my seminar paper within 2 weeks before I fly to Istanbul... 

So everything is quite stressfull and will probably stay this way. 

If I'm lucky, I can do an internship in this holidays in istanbul. (a Canadian friend will probably visit me there, so it's pretty exciting) 

To the food-topic: I eat way to much food! :( my "diet" is HCLF so it's actually really good. I'm still experimenting with 801010 and starchsolution because I don't figured out with which I feel best with... 

Anyways, I want to "detox" tomorrow... (I'm so bloated since 3 days, which is stress and period related) 

So the plan is: 

Breakfast: nana ice cream 

Lunch: 750 ml smoothie with goji berries 

Dinner: big salad 

Snack: raisins and matcha 

I am probably gonna repeat this on Thursday and then I'll join the 

livestrong.com 30 day challenge (there's  a vegan meal and workout plan) and all you have to do is follow it, which is exactly what I needed! 

So although I gained a decent amount of weight, I am still convinced, that I'll be able to fly at least 6 kgs lighter to Istanbul! 

Food in my stomach

I hate love food 

亻外不祥

The following 2 weeks are those, where I have to write my finals and I'm already stressed out like fuck! 

Besides being really busy I often feel so lonely. Right now in bed I just hate everyone I know and don't want to have any kind of contact anymore. But on the other hand I would really to have a few people around me who understand! 

Or at least who make you forget for a little time. But both are at least 2 hours of a bus drive away... So I will have to wait 2 weeks... It's just two weeks right? 

Instagram & pride

I created an Instagram account to photograph the food I'm eating and to motivate myself to stick to the HCLF-lifestyle. 

My name: highcarb_fitness 

Pride. It's like poison. 

It may change the way you think or act. 

I have been thinking about it a lot lately. 

The end of a very good friendships starts  to bother me after 4 months.

There was lots of criticism on me because of giving up a friendship so easily in the past couple of days and now where I can see clearly again I'm thinking:  maybe I was just too proud to understand? I don't know I really don't now... 

But after seeing Christina & Meredith hugging each other after a rough day on greys anatomy I had that feeling for the first time... Pain. 

Happy New Year

Short Update: 

Ate way too much in the holidays and gained weight but it's ok, because I had the possibility to discover what I actually did wrong. 

So the things I changed: 

1. I eat every 5 hours 

2. I drink more water (again) 

3. I eat highcarb and mostly vegan 

4. I have quite big portions but not as big as on rawtill4 (2500+ cals are obviously not made for my body)

5. I am working out again...

Of course there are days which are not as they were supposed to be (e.g. On Sunday I had a huge brunch, dinner, big size popcorn at the cinema and midnight-food) but this is a journey and as long as I get better and stronger every day it's going to turn out for good :)
