Remember as
long as you’re breathing, it’s never too late to start again!
Pay day
tomorrow – hurrah! I’ve still not
completely emptied the freezer but almost, we’re going to have fishcakes today
as I’ve found them in there this morning, I’ll have chicken sausage for
breakfast as I’ve just found 2 of them too.
That’s another day sorted, then there’s trout and some chicken breasts
still in there too, which will do another couple of days, hopefully I can make
it a very light shopping week this week just buying fresh again. I’ve still got tinned stuff in the pantry too
that I’m getting rid of, my plan is to get right down to a minimal quantity, and
less choice means less temptation.
I did a lot
of driving around yesterday looking at kitchens, sinks and cookers, I’m bored
of it now! Anyway when I drive I think
and one of the thoughts that shot through my head was if I start eating the
quantity of food I’m supposed to it’ll not only help my purse, it’ll help my weight. Also if I start making a few of the meals we
have simple ones, like egg on toast for tea or omelettes another one. Yeah I’m going to start looking at the meals
we chose and maybe plan a little more, instead of saying ‘what do we fancy?’
which works out expensive because then I nip over the co-op and rarely is
anything cheap in there, unless it’s on offer and then that’s only usually the
stuff that isn’t great for your health.
I’ve
maintained on the scales this week but moms gained, she hasn’t been weighed for
a few months but it just shows how not being able to get around has made a
difference, so we’re going to have to rethink how she eats too. Treats are delicious but as we all know they’re
full of sugar and fat, chocolate digestive biscuits are rarely eaten in ones as
we both proved yesterday, even I found them difficult to resist! How to resist such stuff easier – don’t buy
it! That’s going to have to be what we
do, keep treats to a minimum and not buy so many because resisting temptation
is no easy is it.
I’ve just
found an interesting article online about resisting temptation https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/use-your-mind-change-your-brain/201106/tips-resist-temptation
if you’ve got time, go have a read.
I’ll even
cut my blog short to give you the time, here’s to having a magic Monday BeYOUtiful.
