What I did on the 8th June 2013...

Thought about having a lie in this morning! What ever!! It seems my body clock does not like to sleep in!  So was up early...

Breakfast:

Natural low fat yogurt with fresh raspberries and blueberries with a sprinkle of flaked almonds.


Lunch:

A small handful of chopped almonds.


Dinner:

This is a home made enchilada with spicy breast chicken.  With green leaf salad and a drizzle of ceaser dressing.


This is what the whole dinner looked like... I had one from the very top.  First time I have made this, and well it was not that bad actually.  It was really tasty.


Early evening:

Decaf coffee.


Small fruit pot, with strawberry, melon, grapes, apple and orange.  Thats a tea spoon, so it only a little pot packed with loads of different fruit.



Exercise:   

Went on Trevor (treadmill) and wanted to do the 12% incline training so Jon worked it out and it needed to be set at an incline of 3.  So I did the walk at the rate of 4 and an incline of 3... OMG sweat!! I felt this one!!

I was plodding along and swinging my arms and DOH knocked the emergency plug out.  I knew what I had done as I had just told Jon, 15 minutes... damn it!! So had to start again and did another 15 minutes.  Jon says just to times this one by 2 and that would give my totals.


So I walked a total of just over 2 miles and burned 174 calories!  :)  And boy do I feel good!

Jon has done some research and found that if I eat a handful of fresh berries ie: raspberries and blueberries this will help me recover.  Its something to do with antioxidants, all good things so thought I would give it a go.



Water (ribena) intake: 2 bottles

My thoughts for the day:

What have I done today??? erm... nothing!  Seriously nothing!  I am a little shocked as I normally get up to something!  Odd doing nothing.

And again... looking at what I have eaten, surely I am missing something out?  Essential vitamins?  I have no clue really... so for the next week I will be writing down what I eat too, to take to the nurse who I see on a Friday.  Maybe she can shed some light on where I may be going wrong? Or maybe I am not?!

Hmmm the knickers...well I wore one of the new ones today... all I have been doing all day is pulling them up!  Seriously shocked a little that they are too big!  So I have gone down... 32, 30, 28, 26, 24, 22... I think a 22 would of fit better!  Note to self buy size 22 knickers!! And that is a whopping 6 sizes!!! OMG!!

Jon, my research person! Has found out many benefits if I start to eat half and avocado a day.  They are very good, a super food that promotes healthy living and helps keep joints, heart and skin to name a few healthy.  So I will be buying some avocado tomorrow!  

I did go to sort some 'old' things in the garage... OMG I found an old photo album.  Arrrghhh is what I said when I opened it and saw the photos!  Its from 2000, photos of me and Han... OMG I look like I am wearing a tent in most of them.  I was huge.. the album is over my mums at the moment.  So when I get it I will scan some photos in and show you.... I am SO not proud of the way I looked, but I know I will NEVER go back to looking like that EVER.  The photos did shock me, and shocked me enough to think I can and am doing this!!

Not that I did not believe that before, looking at the photos has made me realize how bad I want to change.
