Another day...

Wednesday 21st June 2023



Other than a good day at work yesterday, I spent most of the afternoon 'sorting', trying to have a clear out/up of stuff we've collected over the last few years and boy do we have some 'stuff'.  I'm glad the bin men come today, they'll at least empty the recycling bin, the other bin is 2/3rds full already though and that's got another week and I'm still sorting!  I want it done by Saturday for when the sofa arrives, then I can continue with the spare room.

My hip/leg is blooming hurting this morning though, all that movement takes its toll. I really need to lose some weight to see if it would help ease the pain but I'm really struggling since we got back from holiday, I just can't seem to hit the reset button.  I managed to lose 1.5lb last week then I put 2.5lb back on this week!  

I've just lost my appetite and found a donkey's the last few days, I eat my dinner then go looking for something else.  I started tracking yesterday, at least that was a start, it wasn't pretty thought 2,791 calories - ouch!  My fitbits telling me I didn't even but 2,400 calories so I'm not going to lose weight with numbers like that am I.  I'm still sat here thinking 'shall I go make 2 of those thin crumpets with butter and a cuppa'.  I've got to say, I wasn't taken by the two I had yesterday but they had Flora light on, so not sure if it was the crumpet or the lack of butter I've frozen 4 of them but there's two in the kitchen.  I've just worked out 2 crumpets and 10g of best butter is 195 calories, I can afford that, I've lots of seabass in the freezer, need to do something with that, yeah I'll go get some out the freezer and we'll have a healthy tea.  

Taking Minnie to the vets later, she's got something wrong with her skin, allergy hopefully but we shall see, poor things pulling her fur out. 

Well I stopped typing to go make teas and toast the crumpets, they are better with butter, but it took 18g of butter and had I not been weighing it, I would've had more butter than I did, 253 calories, not bad I guess, I could eat the same again though, but I won't, I AM GOING TO HAVE A GOOD DAY TODAY! 

I've taken the basa out of the freezer, now to work out what to make with it, I have a jar of tikka masala sauce, wonder what that would be like with fish?  Or pan fried with noodles, I have some new potatoes that would be nice with veggies.  We shall see...

I need to remember my water today, I planned to drink plenty yesterday and forgot the bottle as I left the house, my memory does not help me at all.

Despite not being very good on the diet front, everything else in my world is wonderful at least.  It'll be even better when the house has been sorted!  I'm toying with whether to get rid of my books or keep the few I still have, cookbooks, that I could just take out the recipes I'm likely to cook, they take a whole shelf on a book shelf.  I don't remember the last time I opened those books which is telling me to get rid.  My spare room is only a box room so there's not much space for many things.  I have a fold up bed in there and 3 bookcases which I think need cutting down to one because I want chest of drawers in there more so we can store our clothes. 

Anyway, I'm processing my thoughts again in blog form aren't I so I'll go and start my day, get ready for work and do a bit more sorting, paper work today I think, that will free up another wooden box in the living room ready to be filled by crap in the coming months :) 

Have a great day, hoping your behaving healthier than me, although I'm working on my mental health with all the tidying, the eating health will kick back in and I'll restart every day.

Mwah, luv ya 

Love me x
