Focusing on the positives, but accepting the oppsies

Tuesday 27th September 
The scales don't define you.

Positive yesterday - I resisted Mcdonalds, I did however buy a piece of cheese in Tesco - oops, at least I had it as my tea on crackers and the other half, I think I'm going to have with a croissant and a little bacon either for breakfast or lunch today depending on how much time I have this morning once I've swam.

Positive yesterday - I did 30 lengths at the pool, I've cut down a little because my shoulders are aching from swimming, so I'll give my body more time to get used to doing it daily.  I did however have a slice of Walnut bread with butter on for breakfast, where's the veg Bev!

Positive yesterday - I sorted and cleaned the spare bedroom ready for the cat's arrival which I think will be Sunday, still not sure, they have to have a final health check at vets.  I did however then enjoy a big bowl of stew with more walnut bread and butter!

Once Aryn got back from school, he was on form yesterday with his humour, we laughed so much in the car driving round fetching cat stuff and food, he has such a fabulous laugh and it was great to see him carefree, the car is a place where we all connect, it's like a safe place.

We're getting ready for the cat's arrivals, we have litter trays, one up, on down, apparently not all cats like to share their loos!  We may need 3 I've been told, we shall see, this house ain't that big!  We bought metal dishes because as Aryn pointed out I'm a clumsy one and I'd probably smash pot ones.  They eat Tesco pouches so we went and got a big box of them and a couple of toys, but I now need to get a scratch post thing, there's so many different ones, I don't know whether to get one that's got the activity bits on it, none of em cheap but they'll need to have access to play stuff as they're indoors I've read.  I already have a round cat box/seat that Alfie used to play in when he was a puppy, that'll live in the living room but I know animals, they don't use the beds that are meant for them, they sleep where they want!

I still have some stew left and I haven't frozen it so I think I'll have it for my dinner today, Aryn ate so well yesterday, got himself 34g of fibre - boom.  Walnuts, raspberries, pear, avocado smash on toast, high fibre crackers with hummus, smoothie, yeah, he was on a roll yesterday.  Isn't it sad that I'm buying it for him and not myself, partly because of the cost, fresh raspberries ain't cheap but having said that, there was 3 portions in the packet, s if I eat them in the correct portion size, that's not so bad.  

We've got a toad in the hole in the fridge, looking forward to eating that, it'll be tomorrow's dinner.  I need to add some fruit and veg this week, so my stew has it already, I don't mind a pear so will have one of them today, there's a bit of salad leaves in the fridge which I can have with my croissant today and I'll get some more raspberries because I forgot to get them yesterday doh.

Let's get on with the day, my room still needs sorting, I need to go through my clothes but I've got to be in a good head space to do that, maybe tomorrow or friday, now I've tidied the spare room, I might get the ironing board out and find the iron and do a proper sort and iron some stuff, not done that in a while lol.

Here's to a better day health wise, 

Mwah, luv ya 


Love me
