Good day ... bad day
hmmm....well.... yeah....ho hum...
one of those days really.
Nothing like an argument at home to ruin a perfectly successful day :-(
Achieved a lot of my goals today:
1) breakfast DONE
2) no weighing DONE
3) exercise DONE - 4 x 10 min walks in tea breaks, lunch and before work + 1 hour walk after work! Yay! My walk after work also including running which I was pleased with!
4) gym N/A
5) track DONE am munching on my tea while I do this .. have tracked the rest of the day and will add this when I am finished
6) water DONE 2+ pump bottles today
7) no coke DONE
8) eat 5 servings fruit/vegies NOT DONE - but planning on making a fruit salad for pudding which will pretty much achieve that
9) eat only 3 meals DONE
10) be positive DONE
when I was 95kgs my whole body ached. I never realised it until I actually lost weight and now I couldn't pin point what ached .. I just ached ... I read somewhere that someone said their body was 'noisy' while they were overweight and that pretty much sums it up. Now by body is quiet and the only noise it makes really is after I exercise too much!
So if I can boost up my fruit intake my having a huge fruit salad that will give me a clean sweep for the day! I am pleased with that.
Even though I decided I would track what I ate but not count points I can't stop doing it. I am always counting up how many I have used in my head. It got me thinking. Are we going to be a generation of point counters.... 50 years down the track are we going to be telling our husbands/partners that we can't have an extra potato cos it will go over our points for the day? Or we can't have two many drinks at the senior citizens get together because we would have to earn bonus points to work it off!
It is a good thing and a bad thing really - means I can't be free of points because I am still working out my meals (in my head) around them but is also a good thing because something on this journey must have stuck in my brain. I now know (whether I choose to listen to myself or not) how much I can actually eat in a day.
So me and my beloved BF argued this evening. He has now gone for a walk (after we finished yelling at each other). As per normal the argument was about children - his C1 and my C2. I hate it and it is pointless. Tonight really started because he doesn't back me about in front of C1 - I know it is because even though C1 is 14 he has only started living with recently and BF still wants to be a mate with him as opposed to a father but it is still frustrating. I get told I don't discipline C1 enough but when I do they stick up for each other. It also seems that when C1 is being told off my BF will bring something up that either I or C2 has done that we shouldn't have. We aren't perfect and we don't claim to be but I don't need that happening everytime C1 has done something wrong. Hopefully he comes back soon so I can try and make peace tonight :-(
I had better go and potter round here for a while, make some fruit salad then go to bed with my book.
Catch yas later.

Great blog!
I have a Diabetes Symptom Blog that covers Diabetes Symptom
Check it out if you get time.
It must be really hard to work out your place etc in blended families. My family is just starting to deal with stuff like that, with both of my parents having new partners. Hope you made up ok last night!
It sounds like you had a really successful day on track - well done!
And when I stopped counting points, it took me a good week or so to stop counting them in my head and worrying about it. If it's something you really want to do then keep it up for a bit longer.
Hope today is a good day!
**HUGS** Hope that you were able to talk it through. You are doing so well in your 10 point list. I saw this on Paulene's once and I really like the idea. I may have to install this into my day to ensure I am being balanced.
Hope you have a happier day today :)
