Day 3 and all is well

Well still on track. Yesterday it was a quick post but felt I wanted to keep the momentum up. I am using both my journal and e-source. What I am doing is planning electronically and tehn keeping my journal in my bag so if any extras slip in I can record them or likewise like yesterday I can cross things out that I do not eat.

Yesterday I got home later than expected and tied up in some issues that menat that I was not sitting down to eat until 21.30. Call me weird but I did not fancy my planned Basa fillets, sweet and sour veg and noodles ( unless someone was going to make it for me and wash up afterwards). Now in the past Thursday , late night working would lead to the takeaway around the corner. Last night I decded a packet of super noodles would curb my carb craving and if I chucked in some veg it wouldn't be so bad. I ended up with 7 p;oints left and I was stuffed. I managed an extra ww bar but decided there was little point eating for eatings sake.

Normally I would have left it there , but today I found myself thinking what I could to improve this pattern. I have decided I will try and pack a bit extra in my lunch next week (maybe even a jacket and beans) and then plan a quick and simple meal for the evening that is light and easy to make (something to just shove in the oven basically).

I am loving my water bottle helping me cut down on the diet coke and coffee I drink, and cheaper than keep buying bottles of water so all good.My friend and I braved an exercise class today. 'Stretch and relax' now I am not saying I am unfit or anything but its a bit worrying when by walking upstairs to the studio I was already breathless :(

I was also put to shame by the older ladies (I think I brought the average age down by approx 20 years). They were flexible and elegant, and seemed to find the moves easy whilst I seemed to have arms that were a foot too short and a totally inflexible back. The trainer was lovely and I actually really enjoyed the class and I think it will be good as a tone up as well as helping my stress levels and flexibility. It was a mixture of tai chi , yoga and relaxation moves.

Been to dentist and nashers all in working order so no excuses for not eating crunchy veg !!! Dentist commented that build up of tartar better and less staining ...so maybe the reduction in diet coke and sugary foods in general is helping more than my weight. I am just glad that I can go another 6 months without visiting her again.....no matter how lovely she is .

Back again...just to let you know I had my basa fillet with noodles and sweet stir fry vegetables. I have uploaded a pic as it was delicious and I was quite impressed with my presentation. Who said cooking for one had to be boring. I fear I may have some points left again. I am just going to have a quick check of my journal to see.
