Passiflora
Dasvidaniya FAT & FLAB!!
I've finally decided to "put pen to paper" so to speak and join in with blogging my daily intake and general feelings. I'm hoping that when I may feel like things are getting a little tough, I can look back at the good times, of which I hope there will be quite a few (good times that is!)
I'm back at work tomorrow, and will also be back in a normal routine, both in lifestyle and eating. Whilst being off at Christmas, mealtimes have been spiradic and all over the place, so now with a little more organisation in my life, I can carry on with the pre-Christmas weight loss routine.
I got weighed on New Years Day, and since my last weigh in (20.12.10), I put on nearly 3lbs. Not good, but not really bad. I enjoyed Christmas, made some good food choices, and obviously, so not good food choices, and now that any leftover goodies have been donated to hubbys work colleagues (and gratefully received too!) I'm moving forward and not ruing the Christmas gain.
Tomorrow night, it's Zumba again. I've missed the class, having not been since I went on holiday early December, so I'm a little worried that it's going to be hard work, but no pain, no gain! Thankfully, I did keep up with walking whilst off over Christmas, but no visits to the gym. I'm hoping to return there again this week too.
I've made leek & potato soup this afternoon ready for tomorrow's lunch and also organised a meal plan for hubby and I for the week. I'll let you know how good we are at sticking to it! My shopping list for this week is a lot less than normal as I'm thinking about what's already in the freezer/fridge/cupboards, instead of buying it all in. I had a look through numerous WW cookbooks to see what I fancy making this week, but thought about cost as well as calories and fat, and whilst it's good to have something different, I'm not going to splurge a lot of money on one recipe and instead have resolved to make a conserted effort not to waste too many pounds on the sterling front this year, and perhaps do one new recipe a fortnight.
So that's me, ready to make my new year kick in tomorrow, and with work colleagues also following diets, mainly WW, I'm hoping that we'll all be good support for each other, so with them, my friends and you all here, there should be no stopping me!!
May I emphasise the word should!!
