21st Jan – an almost perfect food day!

Evening all.

Today was almost perfect food wise.

I had my usual daytime foods, 40g natural nuts, 90g dried fruits, prawn salad.

Dinner was a pork chop, oven cooked spuds, sprouts and garlicky mushrooms.

I was particularly pleased with dinner because we made tonight girls night round mum’s (it’s been weeks since my mum, sister and I have caught up) and mum suggested take away. I however said I would eat with Paul before coming round… No Chinese for me 👏

Turned out I could have eaten with mum and Chelle, mum had some dental work so Chelle took round soup. I had a taste… it was delish! My brother in law is good in the kitchen, he had made potato and leek soup. I need that recipe!

Had I stopped there I would have reason to feel pleased with myself, however mum bought us a small box chocs from New Zealand, and gave us some Christmas tree chocs, so I’ve also had 5 bites of chocs!

So I’m quite happy with myself, but not very happy.

Fluids – we’ve run out of milk so I didn’t have my glass. I’ve had 5 teas, 1 of which had a teaspoon of sugar as I ran out of my halfspoon. I’ve also had a chai latte (no extra sugar) and 2 glasses of water. Not a great fluid day, but better.

Exercise – noooo ☹ tonight has been hectic, in from work at 6.15, straight on with cooking dinner, out to mum’s at 7.15 home now (10.00).

I seriously need to kick my backside into gear. Paul and I were talking about this over the weekend, we’re going to try and dedicate time every evening, providing we have nothing on. Can’t tomorrow night as I shall be spending a couple of hours with Angela after dinner.

So that’s my day, nowhere near perfect, but a bit better than previous days.

I’m getting there, slowly but surely. I so don’t want to let myself down. I’ll get to the right frame of mind, hopefully sooner not later.

Bye for now.
