Great News - Bad Foods


I was under a bit of stress today and consequently I ate more than I should have. I really have to get over this emotional eating, it does nothing but damn depress me afterwards. I did get to catch up with Maz and that was awesome, since I have started studying I rarely get to see her. I truly miss my old friends at times.

Only a light walk tonight of about 15 mins as I have Day 2 of the Couch to 5k tomorrow night.

Food Intake
Breakfast - Wholemeal muffin with cottage cheese. sliced banana and a coffee
Lunch - Wholemeal muffin with ham and cucumber, another coffee
Dinner - 2 eggs on toast (I am feeling lazy( and a huge glass of water.
Snacks - 1 choc chip muffin and a chocolate frog. (this was my downfall and comfort foods and man it was good!!)

My calorie intake was about 1300, not to bad but there is no variety or real healthy foods here. Just a lazy and down day but man can we say whoa on the carbs for the day!!

I did manage to get more water in today but all in all I am not really happy about the food intake today. Another day tomorrow and I am sure it will be better. It's all about the baby steps with a boot up the arse to follow!

Here We Go


The past 2 days has gone really well. I am so stoked right now! I have stuck to the mini goals which is bloody amazing!

Yesterday my gorgeous family surrounding me for Mothers day and I received my all time fav perfume. Guess who is going to stink pretty now!! Today and and yesterday I have stuck to my daily calorie intake and I even got to squeeze in a 5k walk and a game of Netball last night.
My hubby pushed me all the way around the 5k track and I made it in 50 minutes. Still not the best time but happy enough for now. I want to be able to do it in 40 mins eventually.

Tonight I completed day 1/week 2 of Couch to 5k. I did so well last week, just shocking on the food part. So glad to see my fitness has not totally dropped off over the past few months. I had about 3 months of doing nothing.

Food intake for the past 2 days.
Sunday
Scrambled egg and toast, no marg, with a banana and coffee
2 Salada crackers with low fat ham and lettuce, another banana (out of damn fruit!!)
Dinner was roasted chicken and salad. Had a warm Milo to soothe the night time senses.
Calorie intake is about 1100

Monday
Scrambled egg on toast, no marg! (have a thing for eggs at the moment)
Frtiz sandwich and a banana and a coffee (finally bought more fruit today, I am going to be crapping bananas left right and centre.lol)
Half a wholemeal muffin with cottage cheese and sliced peaches
1 small freddo chocolate frog (I know but it was sooo good!)
Grilled Beef Schnitzel, vegies and cob of corn.
Couple of diet sodas.
Calorie intake is about 1200

Water, well, yep still to be desired but I did get a glass or 3 in. Must get in more water. All in all not a bad couple of days!

I did get about 1.5 litres in today due to the scan but that is another one of my mini goals, to drink at least 2 litres of water a day and cut out the diet drinks. Baby steps baby, baby steps!!
