Friendship
is like a bank account. You can't continue to draw on it without making
deposits.
What
an absolutely gorgeous day, it wasn’t until we finally arrived at the park 40
minutes after leaving the house that I realised I hadn’t really been paying
attention to where we’d been walking, it actually took me a few minutes to
remember the route Alfie had taken me because we always go different ways. Usually I’m very aware and mindful of my
surroundings I was quite surprised, but wherever my head had been it was almost
meditative.
Do
you walk round in a daze, are you letting your life pass you by and missing the
small stuff. I try to notice the small
stuff, especially when I’m walking in the morning because it is so peaceful and
quiet, the photos are just some of the beauty I noticed this morning in the half hour after I
came back to the moment, and became totally aware of where we were going
again!
Isn’t
the world a beautiful place when you pay attention to the things that matter
and stop focusing on the doom and gloom? That’s why I don’t read the papers or watch the
news, it’s much too depressing.

Here’s
a tasty new breakfast idea - mix 50g extra light Philadelphia
cheese with 1 teaspoon honey, spread over a warm WW bagel then top with sliced
banana 6pp but very tasty and filling, and doesn’t have to be eaten only at
breakfast time!

Another idea for a dessert, get a WW toffee bar,
chocolate orange or caramel whip bar and chop into small pieces then pop into
the freezer. Make up a packet of Weight
Watcher Strawberry whip (or angel delight type dessert of any make). Add the frozen chocolate piece and pile high
with banana slices. Alternatively make
the banana ice cream to add the chocolate pieces too or freeze the whip as
well. Mmm, the options are never ending,
if only you let your imagination take over.
More members to goal yesterday, well done Lynsey and
Debbie, just fantastic to see all these happy ladies walking out with their
gold envelopes. Remember it's the
journey not just the goal that matter, a huge well done to Debbie last night
for reaching her 8 stone weight loss - how absolutely amazing is that !!
Whether you've lost 8lb or 8stone you all ROCK! Never forget that. x
Yesterday I came across a very moving and powerful poem,
written by Laura Nation 'This one is for you' is a powerful
farewell to an eating disorder. Now if you know me at all, you know I think it's more important to love yourself and your
body whatever its size than to obsess about your weight to the extent that it
makes you unhappy. Listen to it and realise YOU ARE GORGEOUS whatever you
weigh. xx
I made the crispy potato and meatballs again yesterday, then last
night had chicken in sweet chilli mayo, today I think I’m going to make
cauliflower cheese of some kind, think I’ll try and get creative ‘-D Ooo I luvs eating I do. Xx
Busy day so better get on my way.
Enjoy this glorious morning. xx
