My lunch today was very yummy and was inspired by McDonalds McMuffins. I had 1 English muffin toasted, then spread with Extra Light Phili, topped with mushrooms and 1 egg on each half. The egg was cooked in the microwave so no oil or anything then served with lettuce and cucumber! The thing I love about this meal is that it's so easy to do at the office or at home and really filling I defo won't be snacking due to hunger before dinner with this bad boy in me! 

When I was entering in my food calculations for the meal (421cals) I looked back over my week and realised that I have eaten so much food recently, realistically we are talking since Saturday. There is no excuse for it. Although I haven't gone overboard and eaten anything "bad" I have just consumed alot of calories over the last few days. Alot of this is wine...(as usual)... Biggy and I have got back into the bad habit of sharing a bottle at night so that's at least 500 calories there. So I really want to get back into just drinking on certain days and not drinking during the week. The other part is the old vice of when you are feeling good and in control you relax a bit so actually your intake increases! I have been getting on the scales and have gone back up to 14 stone which is defo not where I want to be. I have 3 days to turn it around  so I can see if I can get back into the 13's and defo have to keep a firm eye on the calories I am taking in. 

The good news is that I have now gone to the gym 3 days in row and am enjoying being back. This morning was my TONING day which was really nice and I enjoyed feeling the burn. Yesterday I managed 30 minutes on the cross-trainer at level 8/9 so am pleased with that and tomorrow I am planning on doing a 5k run....
