What a difference a day or two can make – I’m feeling… not motivated as such, it’s a better feeling than that, I feel the food has been a normal day, rather than a healthy eating day… almost as though my mindset is changing? There’s been a couple of eye openers today, first one, milk …

1st Sept 2019 – healthy food day.
Feeling pleased today. There hasn’t been any exercise, but the food has been healthy. For breakfast we had 2 slices of seedy toast with olive spread, with mushrooms and a couple of eggs cooked with 1cal, along with a glass of orange juice.4 For lunch my daughter and I shared a salad. Then for dinner …
31st Aug 2019 – welcome back health motivation. 2lb weight gain.
It occurred to me today that this is approximately the same number weeks that my motivation during health journeys begins to wane, regardless of success or failure. So with everything else that’s been going on, my own natural motivation drop was just the straw that broke the camel’s back. However, I’m feeling the slump was …

Refusing to give up on healthy me!
Ok, last week wasn’t brilliant, last night was a disaster, that’s it, done. Back on track now. Beans on toast for brekkie, scales shortly, walk soon, healthier fish and chips for dinner tonight…. I’ll let you know if that all gets done in my evening update. Draw a line – don’t give up!
29th Aug 2019 – healthy day then chocolate
Today was a successful work day, as they so often can be. The chocolate covered flapjacks called loudly to me today. But… I stayed strong… YAY! I didn’t have my milk this morning, and until now had forgotten about it. I’ll have a glass shortly. Usual day stuff, nuts, grapes, cherries in the morning, salad …

28th Aug 2019 – a healthy food day, and it feels good!
Mum came back from Canada yesterday after a month long visit with my aunt. I visited with her this evening after work. It’s so good to see mum again 🙂. We had such a lovely catch up. I think I might have a slight intolerance to milk. In an effort to increase my dairy intake …

100 Trillion – bacteria, viruses and fungi -gut microbes!
Wow, I don’t even understand this figure – that’s a lot of zeros! I’ve been hearing a lot on healthy gut microbiomes over the last couple of years, so thought I would have a read around (with my unscientific mind) and try to understand a bit more about it. I’ve read into it, and I …

27th Aug 2019 – almost back on track!
What another glorious day here in the UK, lovely sunshine 😀 For the first time in weeks I hadn’t prepared my lunches, and boy did I know it! Luckily I haven’t quite run out of my nuts so I had those for breakfast. I went to the van for my lunch, but I didn’t fancy …
26th Aug 2019 – a lovely day, diet starts tomorrow.
Paul is back home YAY!!! We’ve had a lovely few hours, snuggling then going out and catching up over dinner and Pepsi max. I love it when Paul’s home. I started okish with food, and ended, well, uh hum, not so food worthy! Had a fried egg sarnie for breakfast, used 1cal spray, seedy wholewheat …

25th Aug 2019 – part 2
So at 7.30pm I suddenly realised, with shock, that I had eaten nothing at all today! I didn’t really want anything to eat even when I realised I had not eaten. This is bad! I am trying to stick to a healthy, balanced diet, not starve my body of nutrients, vitamins, calories it needs. So …
