Cravings

I do not have a lot of sweet cravings anymore but once in a while I do have them. Especially after dinner or at night while watching a movie I am craving something sweet. I do allow myself some dark chocolate once in a while but there are times when even that doesn't help.

Over time I learned to deal with my cravings and here are some little "tricks" that help me:

• Make yourself a cup of tea. The 5 minutes it takes to make the tea is enough time for me to get over the sudden craving
• Drink a glass of iced water or iced lemon water (I squeeze the lemon juice around the top of the glass)
• Eat some dark chocolate (I normally eat with 80% or more cacao) 
• Eat an egg (white)
• Go for a walk, do laundry, read or keep yourself busy with something else so you don't think about it
• Brush your teeth ;-)
• eat a little bit of mustard

Maybe next time you have a craving this helps :-)!

Hello June

June is here. I can't believe how fast time flies right now. Did the year not just start? Ether way June started and the official start of the summer is around the corner.

I personally always set goals for myself. Every month, week and day. This helps me keep pushing. This month I am having my photo shoot and at the end of June I am going on a little vacation so I try to lean out without loosing muscle (I am struggling with that). My plan for June is to keep pushing! I will do cardio more than I would like to :-) and I will keep my meals clean aside from some treat meals. I will also make sure to drink a gallon of water a day and I will try to get 8 hours sleep a night.

I stopped eating dairy last week and I do feel better so I will also keep doing that.

What is your goal for June? 

Work HARD, dream BIG!!!

My Favourite of the week

It is Friday so time for My Favourite of the week :-). This week it doesn't have anything to do with food or working out.

My dear friend Stephanie from Australia started a blog a while ago about travelling and fashion. I love her style and her blog! She is always dressed really well so when you are around her you give an extra effort to look nice as well :-).

Check out her blog tripsandtrends or follow her on Instagram http://instagram.com/tripsandtrends.

Happy Friday!

Word HARD, dream BIG!!!
