Looking back at my first Green day, I've realised how much I took EE for granted! Didn't find it toooo difficult but I should probably have had the cereal as lunch or dinner, and kept the late evening snack as something light. Oh well, you learn something new every day

Went to Asda but it was shut! Should have had the common sense to think 'it's 5pm on a Sunday', but was too hungry for Alpen Light Bars, lol! Love themmm!! I think I'm gonna go and stock up on atleast 4/5 boxes tomorrow But for now, Gilmore Girls! xxx

Halfway through the month and almost half way to achieving 160km in June Not bad, considering I started the challenge a week late. Hope it's paid off, want to see another loss this week to motivate me and a gain will probably set me back a bit, seeing as I've been putting quite a lot of effort into my running and walking. Will try to up the 21 mins Wii Fit time to maybe 41 before sitting down with my mug of SC Mint HC... Sounds so good, like melted Mint Aero Bubbles... Ahhhh...
