Gardening is cheaper than therapy and you get flowers!
Once again I’ve been up since stupid o’clock on a Sunday
morning thanks to my delightful dog who woke me at 3.0am to go up the garden
for a wee! I couldn’t go back to sleep
so I’ve been messing about on Pinterest looking at garden ideas ;-)
I have to say the time spent in the garden goes by so
quickly unlike the time spent sitting in front of the tv watching boring
programmes, so let’s hope we have plenty of dry weekends so that we can spend
more time out there. Mom and I spent
all afternoon just pottering about, not doing anything major, sitting around
discussing ideas – that’s the best kind of gardening!
I’m contemplating a car boot sale this morning, don’t
remember the last time I went to one but what’s putting me off is remembering
the traffic hassle getting on and off them, mmm I shall think about it.
The other thing I’ve noticed about being in the garden is I
don’t think about food so much, yesterday morning I had mushroom omelette for
breakfast and it was 5ish on the afternoon before I thought about food, so I
made my burgers at last and had them with brocolli and mash, very nice they
were too. I’ve not done F&H the last
couple of days because I’ve wanted a bit of something else, however I have
still tried to mainly focus on the filling and healthy foods for the majority
of my eating but ProPointed the meals instead, so the breakfast was 6pp and the
burgers 14pp, not 100% on track the last couple of days but doing the best I
can.
It is Weight Watchers not Weight Losers after all, that’s my
justification and I’m sticking to it, we all know weekends are harder for most
of us so I’m going with the 1/2lb a week formula and realising that’s as good
as I’m willing to do right now. It’s not
what I’m capable of, because I know the plan works and if I stuck to it 100% I’d
get the results, but I’m not, so I can’t expect fantastic results.
Being ‘thin’ just isn’t important enough to me right now, being
‘healthy’ is which is why I ensure I eat good filling and healthy food, and
hopefully by doing that and tweaking things a little each week, the extra
weight I’m carrying will come off slowly and who knows, even maybe permanently –
wouldn’t that be fantastic!
I’m going to go make me a cuppa and sit out in my garden
whilst I decide about the car boot sale. Whatever you have planned, enjoy your Sunday –
we only get one every seven days, don’t waste it!
Eat Gorgeous & don’t be in such a rush to get there. xx
