Walk, snack & nap!

Saturday 28th January 2023

Find what you love & never let it go.

I tracked honestly again yesterday, although I did go over on the day, mostly because of my lack of self control over these damn things! 

Pam had bought a couple of boxes of skinny crunch bars for Aryn but sadly he never got to see this box because they are right up my street, I love raspberry and white chocolate and these did not disappoint which is why I can't buy the flavours I like, I'd eaten one on Thursday and then I sat and ate the other 4 one after another yesterday when I got back from dropping the car off! 

 

On a positive, I walked back so earned a few calories, 202 to be precise for a 30 minute stroll, because of my leg pain, I started walking at a brisk pace but it hurt to much and slowing down meant I could walk without crying lol.  It did make me realise I really should try and do a 20 minute walk every day to see if it will help the pain and the sciatica to heal, alongside the physio exercises.  Plus I love to walk and see nature, there was a tiny wren flew past me along the canal path yesterday, it was one of my good things. 

Ah music to my ears, himself is in the kitchen and I can hear he's doing the washing up, I woke up laughing this morning thanks to him, I won't tell you why - tmi! 

Anyway back to yesterday, I had a snooze yesterday afternoon as you can see, that was lovely, I'd cooked my chicken, eaten the skin, the M&S rotisserie chicken wasn't as good as they used to be, or maybe my taste buds have changed.  Anyway I ate that and the bars, put telly on and fell asleep.

Aryn had another good day and he declared he'd tried the school dinners (yep he'd eaten his meal deal too, nice pot of pasta salad and watermelon), he'd had chicken and chips and said it was okay, I started laughing because we were also having chicken and chips for tea, but in the end we had chicken with smilies, peas and gravy.  Basic tasty food, used the juices out of the chicken and some Bisto, only Aryn and I shared the gravy, we didn't have enough for himself and he isn't a big fan of gravy anyway (weirdo).

We then watched Shotgun Wedding on Amazon Prime, easy watch, won't win any awards and Aryn only gave it ten minutes before giving up!  

Now what to have today?  I'm thinking Chicken Kiev with rice for a change maybe, plus those salads I've got, maybe the garlic bread in the fridge too, yeah that's a plan, dinner sorted.  High in calories but if I'm good the rest of the day it's okay.

Right I need to get my act together, myself to get ready for work and washing to fold - that stuffs never-ending!  I've ordered more trousers and shirts for Aryn as when we're away, I want him to have plenty to last the time we're away so no need for washing stuff.  

Here's to a great weekend, 

mwah luv ya
