7th November 2018
Only tell yourself the things you want to come true.
YAY, I slept real well, a good 7 hours easily, fell asleep
watching ‘Pride of Britain with mom’ then didn’t get up till half five, yeah I
woke a couple of times, mom makes sure of that but overall, good night
had. I also ate well yesterday – did
that make a difference to my sleep? It
was all tracked too, Breakfast was one egg (I’m not an ark, everything doesn’t
have to go in 2 by 2!) mushrooms, tinned toms and 1 slices of Kingsmill Wholemeal
medium bread. Now there’s a story behind
the bread, I never cease to amaze myself with my stupidity, I went to get bread
Monday and noticed that my usual Warburton’s 400g Wholemeal loaf was 10p per
100g more expensive than an 800g loaf, so suddenly I’m being careful with my
money, this from the woman who spends more on food than a family of 4! Anyway, I don’t know how I ended up not just
buying an 800g loaf but a different brand, I think it was cheaper still all this to save 20p on the loaf to get twice
as much which turns out it’s going to go stale before I’ve used it and it’s not
very nice bread, really sweet. Anyway it’s
also 3SP for one slice – OUCH, so that’s my bread tale, I’m an interesting
person to be around ain’t I!
Lunch was leftover shredded chicken breast, I added it to
Sharwood’s egg noodles (6SP) and some frozen veggies, and then when it was all
cooked I added a tablespoon of soy sauce (1SP), was a little bit like a healthy
pot noodle, I enjoyed it and would make it again for sure.
Tea was rushed, salmon in the George Foreman, and leftover
veg (aubergine, courgette, yellow pepper) dry fried and all of it served with Tilda
sundried tomato rice (5SP), so my meals only cost me 15SP.
Another 2SP for skimmed milk, then for a treat, my sister had bought my sister some Jaffa Teacakes and I was curious as to what they tasted like so I had one of them for 4SP (nice, worth 4 maybe not, they don’t last long enough), everything was tracked, even the wine I enjoyed whilst watching Pride of Britain. Things resisted? Oh Walkers cheese and onion crisps, they are sitting in the cupboard next to me in the living room but I had a conversation with myself and talked myself out of them and out of having another 3 or 4 teacakes, which would’ve been so easily done because 1 doesn’t touch the sides or give you enough of a taste even if you eat it slowly.

One day in the bag, I’m not aiming for perfection, I am
aiming for progress, I will be lighter at the end of November than I was at the
beginning, even if it’s only a little bit.
Today, I’m going to cook chicken hot pot, need to go get
some chicken, carrots and onions first though – not organised at all! Other things on my menu this week are tandoori
chicken, I’ve bought a pouch of marinade which is only 4SP (I know I can make
my own but it’s not going to happen). I
also want to make lasagne pockets, I have the fresh lasagne and mozzarella light
in the fridge and I’m sure there’s beef mince in the freezer, I think they’ll
be delicious https://www.facebook.com/ChefclubGruB/videos/260582187824622/
this type of thing. Here’s another
recipe that looks delicious and could be tweaked https://www.willcookforsmiles.com/chicken-meatball-orzo-hearty-soup/
Feeling so much better this week than I have in a while, here’s
to keeping a positive mindset, remembering my WHY and working on the actions
and habits I know will help. Pint of
water drank already and healthy breakfast planned, once the Co-op opens and I
can get some eggs (yeah run out of them too!) I really need to do a proper
shop!
Yeah I do, that’s what I’m going to do now, an online shop,
I need healthy food in my kitchen, I need sweet potato toast with avocado and
egg on top, with cherry tomatoes diced in a bit of sweet chilli sauce on the
side. Oh yes, let’s go food shopping
from the comfort of my office.
Here’s to a very great day BeYOUtiful, we can make a
difference between the festivities start in December, we got this!
