Another day done...

Friday 27th August 2021

Be happy with what you have while you're working for what you want.

Another day tracked and in the bag :) I even hit the fibre target, actually I smashed it, 34.2g consumed.  Overnight oats for breakfast, forgot to put some up last night, but have some mushrooms that need using so will have them and eggs on toast for breakfast today. 

Lunch was ryvita with wafer thin chicken and cheese dip, which set me back a staggering 543 calories! 

I know this doesn't look all that but it was tasty, home made burgers, sweet potato fries which were better than I was expecting, mashed carrots and 1/2 roast pepper. 

My muscles were sore yesterday and my knee knackered so I just did an easy walking workout moving my arms lots too whilst watching tele, made it up as I went along but it logged as an aerobic workout on my fitbit, so all is good.  I did get 14/14 hours with 250+ steps which made me smile, almost 13k steps in total and bagged me a cracking 8hrs 28mins sleep hence my blog being later, I didn't get out of bed till half six this morning. 

The Express and Star came to take photos at our Bloxwich meeting yesterday, so hopefully we will make the paper at some point before the end of the month, we did giggle trying to hold the 'poses' he was asking us to do, we both almost got stuck on the floor and Alfie was of course trying to get in on the act, we were very grateful to our members who agreed to come out and be a part of it.

MMm what to do today?  I'll do my exercise when I've finished blogging, then have some breakfast, see how Alfie is, if he wants walking, some days he's lazy and waits till later.  Considering a drive out but not 100% about that, I also like the idea of being lazy and chilling, then I remember there's not many sunny days left of summer, but it's bank holiday weekend so will the roads be mad busy mmm, decisions, decisions. 

What I do know is I intend to stay on track, I'm liking how I'm feeling, it's two weeks today since I started my activity and I'm feeling it in my body, things feel like they're firming up and not so wobbly already, not sure if that's in my head and I don't care if it is.  A couple of people have commented that they can see I've lost weight now which is nice to hear isn't it.  I've a way to go, I want to lose at least another stone, but ideally two, that's too much to focus on those, let's get the next half stone, one pound at a time!  

No meals planned yet, again might take some white fish out the freezer to defrost, need to use up 1/2 cauliflower before it dies too. 

Let's have a great day, sunshine moments from yesterday included this photo of Alfie that Elle took; 

He also took his tablets easy which cheered me up too, easily pleased me ;) we had a play together for half hour in the living room as well, rolling round on the floor, he does love to play, bless his little heart. 

Mwah, luv ya

Love me x
