HEALTHY CHALLENGE - JUNE CALENDAR

I’ve formulated a cute little food/workout calendar for June for you to print out and work on if you like =) Here are the basic rules for this month:

• Decrease your sugar and salt intake (maximum of one very small treat every day, with the exception of Sunday when you can have a slightly bigger treat to reward your hard work)
• Drink 8-10 glasses of water/green tea a day
• Increase your veggie intake
• Try for 5-8 small meals throughout the day
• Try for 30 mins of exercise a day - increase to 45 or 60 mins on marked days
• Try for 7-10 hours sleep daily.

KEY CHART:

• Green Tea Day - Go for 4-8 cups of green tea today (you can add natural sweetener, mint, lemon juice etc)
• Sweet Treat Sunday - You can have your fave sweet or salty treat today (icecream, choc bar, chips etc), but limit it to one sensible portion =) Moderation not Deprivation.
• 45 mins Workout Day - your fave exercise for 45 mins
• Fruit Lunch Day - Fruit is great for energy and sometimes we dont get enough fruit in our diet - have a large fresh fruit salad for lunch =)
• Green Smoothie Day - make a green smoothie using greens like spinach, celery, lettuce, broccoli, kale etc with fruits like apples, bananas, berries, persimmons, pears, pineapple, melons. 
• 60 mins Workout Day - your fave exercise for 60 mins
