What I Ate Wednesday - 19th Aug

Hey everyone,

Today's What I Ate Wednesday is a pretty good one compared to last week's.

BREAKFAST
today for breakfast I had a Belvita soft bake which is a small cakey thing with bits of dried berries through it, it definitely kept me fuller for longer and was also really tasty

LUNCH
lunch was a really good one today too, I had a panini with chicken tikka and coleslaw which was lovely and a small chicken and rice soup, it was really nice for a change but I will definitely be back to salad next week,

DINNER
for dinner we were over at my mums and she had made a noodle type dish with gammon and carrots through it which was absolutely amazing

SNACKS
for snacks today I had a wee cheeky half of a cookie and a nectarine but apart from that I have done ok

WATER
in terms of water I only drank 1 litre today which is really bad, I really need to get back into drinking at least 2 litres every day

Weigh in - 16th August

Hey everyone,

This week at our weigh in I put on half a pound. To be honest I was expecting a lot more and so I am pretty happy that I didn't put on more than I did.

The fact that I didn't put more on is pretty weird as on Friday I had put on 3 lbs and then on Sunday I had lost them all again despite weighing in at the same time both days, I  even more surprised that I lost weight because on Saturday night we had a chippy for dinner after a long day out.

This week I plan on trying to do at least a little bit of exercise every day but I am not sure if this is what will happen on Thursday because I usually go to mums for dinner and don't get home until late however I will give it a go.

Weekly Fitness - 14/8/15

Hey everyone,

This week has been a but of a bust for exercise with me only managing to work out properly on one day,

SATURDAY
the most exercise that I managed to do on Saturday was cleaning the house, it was a nice sunny day and so I spent the day washing clothes and running in and out with the washing. The only other exercise I did was the hoovering which isn't really very much as we have laminate down the stairs.

MONDAY
today I did 5 minutes on the cross trainer and did a little bit of dancing in the living room to some 80s music but this was the extent of my exercise for this week.

WEDNESDAY
today was a really good day for exercise as I manged 45 minutes on just dance with David cheering me on while he went on the cross trainer. This was a pretty successful workout as I don't usually do any exercise at all and I felt pretty good after it.

FRIDAY
today I didn't manage to get a lot if exercise done at all to be honest, the only thing I managed to do was 5 minutes on the cross trainer so this wasn't great, hopefully next week I will have a lot more exercise to blog about and hopefully that will help me lose some more weight at next weeks weigh in.

What I Ate Wednesday - 12 August

Hi everyone

So today I am here with a little post about what I ate today,

BREAKFAST
Today's breakfast isn't the healthiest because I was in a rush to get to work but I had a rice crispies squares bar. Most of the time I have cereal for breakfast but today I was running late and these are easier to grab.

LUNCH
Today's lunch was an extra healthy one to make up for the bad breakfast but I had a salad with lettuce, a little bit of coleslaw and sweet chilli chicken pieces, I also had a small homemade mushroom soup from my local deli.

DINNER
Today's dinner was just a mash up of what was in the freezer, we were due to do the weekly shop tonight and so it was a case of finishing off the things in the freezer, in this case I had 2 chicken burgers and some chicken and mushroom pasta, I know again this wasn't the healthiest option but I am still full and won't eat anything else for the rest of the night.

WATER
Today I drank 2 litres of water in work.

That's all for what I ate Wednesday this week, I will be back on Friday with my weekly exercise for you all.

Speak soon
