What a difference a day makes!

Friday 3rd September 2021
Good food, good mood!


I feel so much better this morning to how I felt yesterday, there's a huge difference between 'having a treat' and full on overindulging which is what I'd done Wednesday and I didn't feel good for it!  Yesterday went a lot better, there were Weetabix eaten, a few leftover chicken wings, a bowl of cheese filled gnocchi for tea and a glass of wine, overall I finished in a much better place than the day before and I felt better for it, I've slept better too. 

Yeah those numbers are much better, but still room for improvement, I didn't eat any of my 5 a day yesterday, that's not good at all!  I did drink my water, I just didn't track it.  Food really does affect my mood, today's going to be much better again because I've had a food delivery, I have salad YAY and a chicken and good food to make some good meals.  Having said that, I'm having beans on toast for breakfast because I fancied it yesterday but never had it, so that'll be one of my five a day.  I must remember to make up my overnight oats too for tomorrow (memory like a sieve) maybe I need a notice board somewhere to tell me to do stuff or I could put a reminder in my phone.  

Elle and I had a good chat, that always helps, we all need a coach and she's mine, she's blooming good at it to you know ;) Carol too, she listens to me whilst we drive to work, she's been a really important person in my life for a long time now, she was great when mom was poorly, for years she let me moan every Tuesday morning to get it all off my chest.  

Not sure what my plans are for the morning, V is popping over later for a catch up, so I might spend this morning in the kitchen, cleaning, sorting cupboards and fridge, making some meal plans.  I still have work to do on the front garden but my backs still twinging so it might need to wait, I will do my 30 minutes exercise though, just keep it gentle, it's the habit of doing it I want to keep going, rather than the intensity, the results will follow eventually and hopefully my back will improve and my knee will stop screaming so loudly.

More new members yesterday and we made the free newspapers, which is awesome news, the more that know about us the better, we're loving seeing people make changes and enjoy their journey's.

I'll keep it light today as I wrote a bit of an essay yesterday I was told 😜

If you're struggling, don't wait till 'weigh day', keep doing your best, be kind to yourself, do what you can when you can.  Remember we don't take care of anything we don't love, so go find a mirror, look at yourself and say 'I love you'.  

Mwah, luv ya 

Love me xx
