15th March – a productive day!

Hiya all, hope you have had a lovely weekend 😊

It’s fair to say my body rebelled, big time, to the delish crap I ate last night!

I spent a good few hours in bed quite uncomfortable and unable to drop off, and then needed several unsuccessful loo stops! This old body wanted to eject the contents, but couldn’t! I spent lots of time sitting and trying!

Today was a much healthier food day, starting with beans on toast.

I decided to try a pair of jeans on, they were too small, they now fit… woohoo! They are a UK size 18, a very generous size 18! I don’t expect size 18s from other shops to fit me, however as my normal jeans are a size 22, and too baggy now, I’m overjoyed to be able to wear something with the number “18” on it!

Paul took a couple of pics, so might as well put comparison on here too.

So, me in July last year…

Me now…

I’m not sure if I can see a difference, but then I never can 🤣

This afternoon was filled with shopping and prepping.

I’d forgotten just how long it takes to prep our salads, I’m worn out! Pennies need to be saved though 😊

And now we’ve got salads prepped, eggs boiled, fruit and nuts measured out.

For dinner, we finally tried devilled tofu! The tofu itself was a pleasant surprise, and something we will have again. Paul wasn’t keen on aubergine, and the potatoes were undercooked. We had salad on the side too.

If we do this particular recipe again we’ll have potatoes on the side as a potatoes salad, and substitute the aubergine and peppers for some other veggies.

Here’s a pic of the recipe, should you want to try 😀

We’ll be having crisps a little later, but they’re not as bad as our old favourites.

I haven’t had a chance to exercise, but tomorrow should be a good day. Monday’s and Wednesday’s are the weekdays I intend to get up early for strength training, as we did shopping today, we’ll be able to go for a walk tomorrow night. And as I’m working from home for the foreseeable, I can do something during lunchtimes as well.

So guys, that’s my day. Looking forward to the coming week, excited to see what I can do, and hoping I can keep to my healthy eating 😉

Good night all
