Using slimming world to become a yummy mummy

yuck. I have a bad sore chest, was coughing for 4 hours pretty much last night and still off now. Garys oldest is 11 and he had a bad chest infection and was here for 1 day last weekend and now we are all coughing and bad. So Im going to not care about calories til im better cos to be honest I cant be bothered to go and weigh everything and count numbers at the moment! Im in bed listening to the kids doing god knows what while Gary plays ps4 lol
Iv decided im just going to do some green days til im better then see if I lose on monday (if I weigh in) and go from there. My lungs feel like they cant get full of air and I hate this cough! Im so wheezy too. Im not going to the Drs, Im just going to get plenty of rest (well as much as I can) and lots of fluids and good healthy food.

Poor you, hope you feel better soon x

Don't worry about diet too much just concentrate on getting your fluids and eat what you fancy. I know what you mean about weighing and measuring, I had a bad night last night and I'm just fed up with diet ruling my life.
 
Im not going to worry to much this weekend. The food iv got planned doesnt shout diet and restriction to me so I shouldnt do too bad this weekend. Im just gonna concentrate on eating the free foods and getting some fruit and veg in and plenty of fluids x
 
wow wedges,beans and cheese was just what I needed after today. Now for tv and snack a jacks. Night everyone and hope you have all done well today x
