The 3 C’s Of
Life: Choices, Chances, Changes. You must make a Choice to take a Chance or
your life will NEVER change.
Well it’s safe
to say our Teddy Bear’s Picnic was a success despite the rain and I got sent a
few photos of flaked out fast asleep kids so moms were happy and I’m going to
own up I fell asleep on the settee early around 7 and woke up an hour later and
went to bed where I stayed all night and had a brilliant sleep! So yeah picnics make you sleepy apparently,
it might have been something to do with the large glass of red wine I had too
when I got home – much deserved.

the photos from the day, some great Teddy Bears going on and the kids weren’t
bad either!
I’ve just
looked at my tracker and it wasn’t bad because I’d put a chicken in the slow
cooker before leaving the house on the morning so our dinner was a good one,
however I did have 8pp worth of sandwiches and a cake at the party, plus 6pp
worth of kids sweets that were left at the end!
Could’ve been worse!
Now I’m on a
mission to lose weight, the rest of the week I’m in the zone, thinking F&H
today and now all the big things I’ve had organised over the last month are
done and dusted I have a bit more time to get focused on myself and sorted. Here’s to another weight loss next week…
Looking
forward to this week’s meetings as it’s all about getting your mojo back and I
think there’s quite a few of us ready to do that! Yep the weathers changing, the nights are
drawing in, it’s a great time for Filling & Healthy, slow cooker meals,
stews, casseroles, curries all good nutritious food. All I did yesterday was put onion, carrots
and peppers in the slower cooker, skinned a whole chicken and plonked it on top
with a few herbs then put the cooker on for 8 hours, when I got back it was
falling off the bone, had been on about 7 hours then and you don’t need to add
any water the juices came from out of the chicken and vegetables. A delicious and very easy Filling &
Healthy meal. According to an article I
was reading yesterday, slow cookers are a cheaper way to cook than the oven so
they are worth using. I have a joint of
beef I’m tempted to cook in there too, maybe on Thursday so I have a delicious
tea to look forward too at the end of my busy week of meetings.
I know there’s
a few of you out there that have stayed off because of holidays or because the
kids are off school, why not get back today if only to get weighed and
remotivated and be a few weeks ahead of the school term so that when they do
return to school, you’re already on track and a few pounds lighter. I know we don’t really want to think about it
but 127 days (18 weeks) till Christmas.
Who’s up for finishing the year lighter than they started it?
My members
didn’t make last night’s Express and Star but I shall keep buying it until they
do, I’m guessing the V festival took
more pages than expected and we got put back, hey ho, they’ll get in there I’m
sure.
Right I’m off
to get my car and myself ready for my meetings this morning, we lost 398lb last
week can we top that this week, we shall see.
Have a great
day BeYOUtiful, focus on the healthy and happy xx
