When you say yes to others make sure you are not saying no
to yourself.
Where’s the sunshine gone?
I was getting used to waking up to a lovely bright, sunny morning. Oh well
I’ll have to settle for it being fresher this morning.
The Weight Watcher August magazine arrived yesterday and I’m
thrilled to say my BeYOUtiful member Ellie is in it, a fantastic 3 page read starting
on page 92, to say I’m proud is an understatement, I’ll let you read the
article and you’ll see why I’m so proud and I love that she explain “BeYOUtiful”
so well. Yes to think that I’ve made a
slight difference to someone’s outlook on life makes me feel so good, it’s one
thing to help someone lose weight, but to help them change how they feel about
themselves in a positive way is just an incredible feeling for me. I can’t wait for tomorrow to be able to sit
and read the rest of the magazine, hopefully it’ll be dry enough to do that
outside otherwise the kitchen table it is, there’s loads in it by the look and
it’s also a special food issue so I can look for a recipe or two to try.
Yesterday was rushed in the kitchen, 20 minutes to get
salmon, couscous, roast mushrooms and sun dried tomato sauce on the table, it
was tasty enough though proving you can do good food fast, I had toast for
breakfast and a sandwich for tea – too much bread going on, I’m going to have
to get a handle on my busy days and the food I choice! Maybe make a couple of extra meals on the
other days and freeze them for microwave teas on work nights.
I really need to think about what I’m going to have today
because it’s my busiest day and I will be rushed at lunchtime and shattered by
tea time and when those two are mixed in my world the results can be greedy and
lazy! Which we all know will equal going
off track and undoing all the good work I’ve done in the days preceding!
Maybe wholewheat spaghetti for lunch, that’s quick enough,
need to check fridge and freezer when I go down to make a cuppa. Ooo yeah spaghetti and I bought some tomatoes
reduced from co-op I’m going to slow cook them in the oven with a bit of
balsamic vinegar and olive oil, they would be lush. Maybe ProPoint today and
throw in a tin of mackerel mmm, what’s not to love about eating!
Mmm I really enjoyed the Colman’s bake in the bag southern
style chicken I wonder if you could use that idea on fish? Might have to experiment with that! I think it would work and be an almost
F&H version of coated fish.
But in the meantime, I need to get my backside in gear, the
kettle back on and myself ready for work, I leave the house at 7.30am, it
really is an early one, especially as I’ll finish tonight about the same time,
if I’m lucky I’ll get up to an hour’s lunch, it’s like shift work with a smile
:)
Right enjoy your day, do it your way! BeYOUtiful because there isn’t any better way
to live.
Healthy & Happy always. xx
