I have to admit that this week has been a bit of blow out with food and exercise. I went to Disneyland on Monday and although did lots of walking still ate more than I normally would (prawn sandwich for breakfast, Burger with cheese and mushroom for lunch and huge 4 cheese pizza for dinner...salads are not part of the Disneyland Menu choice!), Tuesday I was to tired to care what I ate and actually was really hungry in the morning. Yesterday it was my 1 year's anniversary at work and so we had cake in the afternoon and although I had an extra light lunch to compensate in the evening I went for a few drinks where I had a very nice cheesy garlic bread pizza thing and then when I went home Biggy and got Pringles and Cava which I had a fair share of as well as a small portion of home made Moussaka. Then today I had a good breakfast and a healthy lunch, but then failed with home made apple crumble cake and still have to have dinner tonight. So really... so far a bad week. I should be able to be good over the next couple of days but do have friends coming for lunch on Sunday so another danger zone ahead of me.
The other bad thing is that I haven't gone to the gym yet this week. Obviously I couldn't go on Monday and Tuesday I was knackered, Wednesday I went out for a drink and tonight I could go but my gym stuff is at home which means I have to go home first and we all know that the hardest thing to do. What I must do is go to the gym on Fri,Sat and Sun and make up for things instead.
One good thing that did happen today was that I was debating what to have for lunch and really couldn't make up my mind I was looking at salads of around 340/400 calories and then was thinking actually I would like something hot and was looking at a Healthy ready meal range. I was in the process of putting the salad back after having chosen my hot meal of around 400 calories and then saw this really skinny pretty girl walk past just carrying a plain salad and some fruit, I thought to myself, well Katherine, if you want to be thin you are not going to manage it by eating beef in red wine and cream sauce with rice for lunch even if it is 400 calories. SO I put everything back and chose a plain salad mix with a pot of prawns with chili bits for a grand total of 200 calories. Of course this was later ruined by the home made cake that I ate later but still little steps!
Tonight I am going to just have a soup for dinner to compensate for all the cake and actually I should still come in at 1500 calories for the day! All I can do is draw a line and do things for the rest of the week that will compensate for the bad things.
