Definitely feel like I overate yesterday, even though I was within my syns and was snacking on free/superfree. I guess I could have had more superfree to fill me up.
Possibly not having any meat led to me being extra hungry also. And perhaps the walk early in the morning upped my appetite a bit. I will say that at no time did I eat until I was stuffed. But rather ate until I was "okay". Our C says if we want to eat 6 small meals a day that's fine. So I suppose it could have been worse. I could have been tearing into mars bars lol
Onwards!

Today's food diary:
Breakfast -- 2 boiled eggs, an alpen light bar and a banana
Lunch -- bowl of curry noodles, followed by a bowl of homemade veggie soup. Yum, and so filling.
Snack -- apple, peeled and cored
Dinner -- Teryaki chicken from the Extra Easy Meals in Minutes recipe book (2 syns per portion) with plain, boiled rice.
Snack -- Alpen light bar, pack of Treble Crunch crisps and a pack of curry noodles.
Syns today -- 7
Today's body magic:
8.4km fast walk. Supposed to only do 5.4km with the walking group, but since I was about 20 minutes faster than anyone else (i.e. my lift home), and it was raining, I decided to just keep going and walk the 3km home. I even added a bit of jogging in. Granted it was only a little bit, but my God I never, ever thought I'd jog, nor even WANT to jog, but there you have it. I'll keep adding a bit of jogging in and eventually I'll get used to the jogging, I imagine.

Finally got around to that total overhaul of the house... mostly. Got the bathroom cleaned, and floor washed, swept the carpets on the landing and stairs, cleaned the hallway and sorted out the clean washing, cleaned my own room and sorted through a lot of my clothes... it doesn't sound much, but I'm wrecked after it!

Housework, re-arranging some cupboards which involved climbing a step ladder repeatedly lol. I also took the baby for a walk to the shop.. a very slow walk, during which she pestered me for several piggy backs!
