The way you treat yourself sets the standard for others. Dr Sonya Friedman.
Well its official I’ve got a bad throat ;( thought I had
yesterday morning when I woke but hoped I’d just been sleeping with my mouth
open, see this is proof that I’m allergic to housework! I cleaned the cooker Sunday and this is what
happens! Hey ho, paracetamol at the
ready, my glands are only slightly up, it’s my first one since my neck
operation so I’m hoping it won’t affect that, I’m sure it won’t.
ProPoints wise, I’m all out of them, minus one actually, and
one day left to complete on my tracker before weigh in, today will be a super on
track day and I will earn that 1pp on my pedometer. I ate some delicious food yesterday though,
Breakfast: 3 egg omelette (6pp) with Spanish onion and smoked
ham (2pp) = 8pp
Dinner: Roasted salmon (7pp) & asparagus (1pp of oil) with
chargrilled courgette and lemon basmati rice (5pp) = 13pp
Tea: 4 Large mushrooms stuffed with chorizo (3pp) & St
Agur (5pp) served with salad = I had 2 of them for 4pp
That’s a good lot of food for 25pp, the rest of my ProPoints
were spent on picking at stuff whilst I was cooking and wine – purely medicinal
of course ;)
I’ve got potato, swede and carrot mash prepared for today’s
main meal and shall be having it with sausages, if I hadn’t already defrosted
the sausage, I’d be tempted to go for a F&H day! Not to worry, I’ll cope on 26pp I’m sure and
I can live without wine for one night, I think it’ll be an early night thanks
to this throat.
I’ve managed a great Weight Watcher week regarding my
tracking, ProPoints etc, I’ve indulged enough and within my allowance, I’ve
enjoyed everything I’ve eaten and I’m hoping for a weight loss (it’s killed me
not to get on those scales), however I’m aware of what’s coming over the next
few weeks and I realise it’s not about being perfect this morning, it’s about
making good choices when we can and surviving, whilst still enjoying
Christmas. I say we focus on the
positives!
I will not be counting ProPoints over Christmas week or going
without anything, I’ll be indulging and sorting it out in January with the help
of Weight Watchers! There’s going to be
a lot of festive hurdles over the next few weeks, I plan to jump as many of
them as possible, I want to wait till Christmas Eve to start my mince pies and everything
else that screams Christmas!
Have a great day and here’s an exercise that’ll serve you
well, try it now;
Sit or stand (it doesn’t matter)
Turn your head towards your right shoulder, and then turn it
towards the left shoulder,
Repeat a couple of times and say "No thank you"
That little movement will do you more good than a five mile
run at this time of year ;)
