THE END…..

Here it is folks , the end of ramadan . It’s a great time to look back and reflect on how you did, those who stuck to the keto diet can be amazed at the energy they had and the fat they have lost, those who ate anything can look at it as a chance gone begging,

So I managed to fast for 2 weeks during Ramadan whilst maintaining energy for my work commitments and just enough energy for the gruelling crossfit workouts , I only did it for 2 weeks as although I performed admirably in my wods I felt I could and should do more .. so I reverted back to my 3 meals a day/ eat when I’m hungry schedule.
And now EID is here everyone needs to be a little bit sensible with the eating as all those amazing things you have done and the weight you have lost during Ramadan will be lost, its incredibly easy to jump back onto the carb band wagon and succumb to the addiction , one bit of advice is stay away from the chocolate 😛 I am in the VIP lounge at Manchester airport eating an amazing green leaf salad with chicken, salchicha, olives and cheese , BUT….. there is a mountain of chocolate rocky road and chocolate cookies staring at me , 20170625_170708.jpgI will not break , they hold nothing over me anymore… today I am strong and you will be to.20170625_165037
