Hellooo!
So heres my first update of the 14 day health kick.. & my god it ain't a good one!
14 Days Of:
1. No Coffee or regular tea
2. More Green Tea
3. Daily exercise
4. No alcohol
5. No Sugar
6. More fruit & Veggies
7. More Water
8. Regular Sleep
9. No food after 7
10. No juice or pop
Honestly, I didn't know what I was letting myself in for. I mean I have terrible will power as it is (like if I see a sign at the chip shop saying 'HOT do not touch' .. I will touch it) & I get why people may find this little detox helpful, but wow! - That is a hell of a lot to give up.
2 weeks without tea or coffee? - are you kidding me? I was ready to attack business men in the street with Costa cups 2 days in.. So as you can probably guess, I failed that part miserably.
I did try and replace my morning English tea with green tea.. Honestly I tried, & I'm still trying because I know the benefits and all the nutritional crapola that comes with drinking it, but guys, in all seriousness.. it tastes like I'm licking a field!!
To be fair I have been drinking a lot more water, and chips have been substituted for salad or veg with all my meals (not that I ate chips with everything..) But yeah I've had a decent try so far with that part of the challenge.
The exercise however hasn't been easy, its snowing pretty heavy here in Yorkshire so running is not on option & slapping on the 80's lycra for a dvd workout in my living room is too cringy to even bear thinking (especially because I live with 11 people now!)
- Does running up and down three flights of stairs count as exercise?
I want to mess up all that perfect snow so badly!
- would not like to risk running on those pavements though!
I have 6 days left of the 14 day challenge and I'm going to do my best to keep it up, but honestly its harder than it looks. 2 weeks is a hell of a lot longer when you're having a no caffeine rage!
Wish me luck!

I love this challenge! I'm currently on a no alcohol diet for all of January. So far so good! I've also super stepped up my workout schedule and started cooking more at home. Don't give up! You're more than halfway there :)
