In order to look forwards I also need to look back and I have given some thought to my daily routine as this is clearly not helping me. My general weekday routing goes something like this;
6.15am Alarm (hit snooze button)
6.30am Alarm 2 (get up)
6.30am - 6.50am (toilet/shower/shave/dress etc)
6.50am - 8.00am (travel to work)
8.00am (1st coffee - white with 2 sweeteners - no breakfast)
8.00am - 13.00pm (approx 4 coffees and most days a couple of biscuits or a pastry/cake)
13.00pm (lunch - normally a large ham roll or a pasty from Greggs and a bar of chocolate)
13.00pm - 17.30pm (2-3 coffees and often another piece of chocolate)
17.30pm - 18.30pm (travel home)
19.00pm (evening meal - usually quite balanced with lean meat and vegetables prepared by my wife or food like Fajitas, Encheladas, spaghetti bolognese, cottage pie)
19.00pm - 23.00pm (approx 2-3 pints of fruit cordial and possibly a late desert like yoghurt or rice pudding)
23.00pm (bed)
Clearly the issues are that I do not have breakfast, I drink too much coffee (not enough water), eat too much cake and chocolate and dont do enough exercise!
This will be the basis of my changes;
1. eat more frequently and ideally not so late at night
2. make snacks more healthy
3. drink more water and cut down on coffee
4. more exercise (at minimum 30 mins of cardio 4 times per week)
