Well done on making it through the first week of the August Weight Loss Challenge – today is Day 7! Another important step is the ending of the first week, and today it is time to recall the learning outcomes and prepare for future accomplishments.Morning Routine: This week’s topic is Reflect and Recharge – a topic that is incredibly important to discuss as it relates to mental health on the job and everyone needs that break or time to decompress from work and other stresses in life.
Hydrate: Without a doubt, breakfast should be kicked off with a glass of water with cucumbers and several leaves of mint in it. This will set your body and especially the mind on a hydrating start to help wake up the muscles and tissues.
Morning Workout: Today’s exercise should be a 20-minutes of pilates that offers a good workout as it involves the strengthening of the muscles of the ab region. As a low impact exercise it can be a perfect way to begin your day being focused and collected.
Protein-Rich Breakfast: Start the day with a breakfast that contains protein and Vitamin C by taking scrambled eggs and sautéed spinach, and also take a whole grain toast bread. This meal has got all the aspects of protein, fiber and healthy fat that can sustain energy for the day.
Midday: Relax and Get Ready
Mid-Morning Snack: It’s better to eat something relatively non-heavy such as five carrot sticks with a little bit of hummus or a portion of almonds in order to avoid a drop in energy levels.
Balanced Lunch: Choose grilled chicken served with greens, cherry tomatoes, avocado and some dressing of olive oil and vinegar. This is light meal which also full fills the stomach causing you to have a full day or rather is suitable for days with many activities.
Afternoon: Cognitive suggestions include:
Active Breaks: Keep going for short intervals to b Uhr this is a good chance to move around. Taking a few minutes to stretch, or perhaps going for a quick walk is enough to rejuvenate someone and in the process clear their brain.
