14th Nov 2019 – beginning to hope the scales won’t be so bad!

Hey all.

Wow! What a work day!!! I am glad it’s over, but there’s still plenty to do.

Other than that I resisted all but one of the mini flapjacks, Peter has been given instruction to take the buggers home!

I’ve been cold all day so there were lots of teas today. That could be because it is a cold day, or it could be because there were lots of loo stops during the night. Hoping tonight will be better.

That aside though, I’m beginning to feel more positive about the weigh in on Saturday, I’m even daring to hope I might maintain.

Here’s my daily summary.

Food – 28g natural nuts, 1 hard boiled egg, some fruit (a bit tasteless and mushy, so wasn’t keen), salad (And I realised I also missed out my dressing as well as feta. I really haven’t enjoyed my salads this week 😔)

Dinner however was utterly enjoyable. We had steak tonight, this should have been with my oven spuds and some veggies, instead we had tomorrow’s chips and no veggies. I’m not worried about the chips, eating them today or tomorrow is neither here nor there. I am sorry I didn’t cook veggies, although with my salad and the fruit I did eat, i have still had 5 portions today.

I’m now eating a salt and vinegar rice cake.

Fluids – about 5 cups of tea, 1 glass of water. I haven’t had my milk, ran out the house without it this morning, I might have it after my water, but honestly I think I’ll miss it as I do need a decent sleep.

Exercise – I had planned to do stretches and the new 25min workout, however Paul suggested a walk, so that’s what we did. It was a good walk, slower than it felt at little over 3 miles an hour. But it was a good 45 minutes of decent striding.

And it warmed me up!

Moodwise – i am feeling not just motivated but positive as well.

With regards to the weekly weigh in, I am hoping to maintain but I feel prepared for a gain, so accepting, not blase.

Anyway, Brian Cox is calling, so I’m gonna immerse myself in solar system stuff 😊

Good night all. 🤗
