Forget perfection,
everything has cracks; it’s the only way to let the light in.
Well that’s
more or less it for another year isn’t it, Christmas is officially gone and I’ve
indulged, I don’t think I’ve gone ridiculously mad and yet I’m ready to get
healthy again. I’m hoping the 80mph
winds we had yesterday have dropped so I can take Alfie for a decent walk and
get some good fresh air into these lungs.
I’m ready for a meal that has lots of green stuff on the plate but
without all the stodgy stuff by the side of it and I’m more than ready to cut
out the bread again. Yes my healthy and happy
lifestyle choice isn’t about being able to fit in a particular size clothes,
for me it’s about feeling well and energetic rather than sluggish and yak and I’ve
had enough of the Christmas stodge. Weirdly enough though the ‘treats’ I bought thinking
I’d fancy them, I haven’t even bothered, the bread and butter pudding is still
in the fridge, the Christmas cake is still untouched and the Christmas pudding
uncooked because I just don’t have the room for it all. I did enjoy a few of the kids sweets
yesterday, a huge tub of them they have, I sat there thinking if we’d got our
hands on that many sweets as kids we’d have thought we were rich beyond belief!
Moms in pain
too, her hiatus hernia is causing her severe chest pains which feels like a
heart attack for those that don’t know, unfortunately there’s not much we can
do to ease the pain, it just has to settle – no joy this getting old lark!
A trip to the
supermarket today to top up on bread and basics, I’m fancying something healthy
and light that’s for sure, maybe some fish.
I’m guessing
most of you have already heard about the Simple Start Weight Watchers have
launched, I can’t wait to give that a go in January, to give my body a healthy start
to 2014, who knows I may even cut out the wine for a few weeks, give myself a
real detox.
Yep I like
the idea of ditching those resolutions this year and making just one
positive change – and choosing to follow our new Simple Start plan. No weighing, no measuring, just Filling &
Healthy foods and successful weight loss sounds good to me! I’m really looking forward to sharing it with
my members and doing it together with them.
Not yet
though as I still have a week of my holidays left, I’m going to enjoy the break
and read today, maybe watch some more of Mrs Browns Boys with my mom and
generally chill and recharge those batteries.
Have a great
day all, Eat Gorgeous & BeYOUtiful. xx
