How I'm going thus far...
So, today is the first day of iCT. Hehehe - I am so full of excitement, happiness and am eager as to what tomorrow will bring.
I woke up + smiled, knowing exactly what today meant, the beginning of something fabulous. To be honest today was more about getting my head together, writing in my journal, writing lists of what I need to purchase + writing "day plans" in my diary for this week. I did pretty myself up for it all though :D
One of my challenges is to make my lunch everyday. Yes, it seems simple to you, but it has been really hard for Iain + I. We are constantly saying we will make our lunches, but we never actioned it. So... Iain + I went shopping + we both purchased funky lunch cooler bags. I only just finished packing both our lunches.
The only exercise I have done today is walk Lilly, but it is Sunday + I have planned to go to the gym tomorrow night. We've both eaten really well today too. (mainly as we went grocery shopping last week knowing we're doing iCT). I tell you what, I am REALLY surprised at how supportive Iain is being about iCT. He never used to be like this, but I think he can now see how serious I am about it this year and the positives about the whole challenge. He also has 'goals' he wants to achieve + I completely support him. It makes it a whole lot easier when you have someone there. Even if they aren't participating, they are still there for you, which is the most wonderful feeling.
Last year I didn't have this support, he was rather negative about it, but we were both going through a lot of crap at the time. Since then, I learnt about EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), yes, I learnt it from the wonderful Gala Darling - EFT has changed my life incredibly - and I still have so much more I need/want to work on. Everytime I think of something it goes on my list + when I feel ready to work on it, I do.
If you're interested about EFT, check out Gala's demonstration below.
Well, I'm off to bed now. Have a fabulous day tomorrow!!

1st Feb - you know what that means!!!
Gala Darling's iCiNG Transformation Challenge (iTC) kicks off tomorrow... actually I just realised its 12.24am February 1st! hehe iTC kicks off TODAY!
It has taken me quite a few days to really think about what to challenge myself for iTC. I know this seems like a HUGE list, but I am already doing most of them – I want to make sure I follow through with them everyday.
* Organise my junk – clean house = clear mind;
* Find/connect with my true self + gain confidence;
* Use EFT daily (Emotional Freedom Technique) – I still have a long list of things I want to work on;
* Eliminate the negativeness in my life (thoughts + people);
* Meditate;
* Continue my 2L-of-water-a-day challenge;
* Exercise daily – gym classes 3 times week, yoga/pilates, treadmill/rowing machine + continue personal training sessions every Wednesday;
* Eat healthy, make my work lunches everyday;
* Practice raw food diet – I don’t feel I am completely ready to dramatically alter my diet yet, but it is something I have been wanting to do since last year;

* Tell people (friends + family included) about my blog - no-one knows about it.
My intention is to blog my progress everyday, despite whether I fail or not (just part of the process). As Gala said - 'tomorrow is another day'. If I fail I will just pick myself up and keep charging on.
