Spring Has Sprung!
Wow we all seem so excited that spring is here at last! I love spring .... but then I kinda love every season as well!
I still have the flu - actually took the day off work yesterday (and maybe should have taken today off also). I spent the day with the house to myself, in my fluffy pjs snuggled in bed with the cat. Bliss! Today I am still coughing like mad, my stomach is not feeling very flash and I am tired :-( ... and feeling very sorry for myself.
I have come to a decision about my weight - at the moment I hate following the WW points plan. Prime example today - I went to lunch with my beloved BF and choose a very small plate of macaroni cheese and topped that off with a big bowl of fruit salad. It was delicious and I thought quite healthy (I used to go in there and have a plate of pasta, some pastries and maybe a piece of cake) but I get back to work and I have no idea of how to work it out points wise. I hate that - unless I take the scales with me and actually weigh my plate (I mean please!?) I won't really know.
The other problem is that I go over my points and think 'Fuck I have blown it for the day' and then proceed to really blow it for the day. It happens time and time again and I hate the feeling of being a failure. I don't want to be a failure!
My lifestyle has changed so much this year and I am very pleased with that. There as so many examples (and not just judging by the scales) - I walk everywhere at the moment, I have joined the gym, I would much prefer to eat salad with tea than potatoes - in fact a bag of potatoes will last us twice to three times as long as they used to! - and I am making better food choices. I am pleased with how I am going and with the changes I am making but at the moment I am sick of being restricted by points.
So ... I am putting aside the points plan for the moment and seeing if I can sustain my (genearally) good behaviours. I am going to set myself some easily managable goals and see what happens. I have also decided that I am going to put 50c away for each goal I achieve each day and that will be used for my shopping spree when I reach 69kgs .... YAY
How rude! I have finished work so will have to set my goals later ...... bye for now
