As the title of my post says I am back on track and had a good day yesterday as well as today (so far), although I haven’t been doing much exercise. That is unless you count the fact that I spent all of today assembling a table and 6 chairs. The table weighed a ton and I was impressed I actually managed to move it around and flip it over etc.
Yesterday I decided that I needed to do an actual food shop and this alone has helped me stay on track. Before yesterday we were trying to make do until payday. This was alright, until the point where you have nothing left and you have the nibbles. It is at that point where you end up making toast and butter. But now I’m stocked up with plenty of fruit and veggies, lean meat and some cupboard essentials like chopped tomatoes and baked beans.
Actually have food in the house meant we could have something for dinner that wasn’t made up of the spot based on what we have left in the cupboards. So we had a yummy scrummy chicken dinner.
It was just what the doctor ordered.
This morning I had a good start with a fruit salad for breakfast and surprisingly enough it actually filled me until lunch!
I’ve decided that I just eat way too much high starch food. Generally I have a bowl of Fruit and Fibre for breakfast, some sort of pasta based food for lunch and then my dinner in the evening usually always had potatoes. Plus I might have cereal bars during the day which is another added carb filled item. So for a week I have decided to try to reduce it down a little and swap it out for more superfree foods. Hopefully this will help my weightloss a little bit.
Tomorrow I am looking forward to trying this pancake recipe that I have found. I’m going to use the porridge as a healthy extra and this will make the pancakes free!
