I have been a believer in Slim Fast in the past so think what I will do is start doing the Slim Fast in the morning for breakfast, soup for lunch and just a small portion of whatever for dinner. One of the reasons why I often fail at Slim Fast is that each shake is 230 calories ... now a can of soup is less than that and alot yummier so I often find I don't stick to it. But I am tired of not being in the 100's or AKA onederland.. (love it). This summer has been very full on with weddings and birthdays so I know that there have been quite a few times I have gone backwards in the weight department but each time I come back. Other areas that I really really need to focus on is my positive image and self esteem as it does affect my relationship with Biggy as I tend to shy away from him which is ridiculous as he knows exactly what I look like and isn't running for the hills when he sees me in my birthday suit! I have had some good advice on why I think so badly of myself and ways to counteract the negativity so have already started working on that.
Yesterday I didn't make it to the pool in the morning as was just so tired and this morning I had to have a debate with myself in bed for staying in bed v's going to the pool... you know what so so glad the pool won! When I got there it was quite busy but as soon as I was in the water and doing my laps instantly felt better. I only could do 25 minutes as my debating session meant I was a bit later in getting there but I did some good lengths but think I need to push myself a bit more as feel sometimes that I am being a little bit too leisurely ... but also know the more I do it the stronger I will become and so the harder I can go! The other thing that I am pleased about is that in Spain there is an indoor swimming pool so am going to keep up the swimming routine in Spain.. will hopefully help keep off the holiday weight as well as some other activities I can think off!!!
I will go to the gym tomorrow and Thursday but I won't make it on Friday as the Wedding (Part 2) starts at 9.00 am and obviously need to get ready. The other 2 and a half weeks I can go every morning during the week and then when I come in to work have a shake and an apple, soup for lunch, something small for dinner and then should be laughing when it comes to weigh in! What do you think of the plan?
