Good morning Day Seven! We’ve nearly completed a whole week!
I weighed the same as yesterday, I have make sure I don’t get upset by down, down, same, up, down because that is how it’s always going to be! If I can’t handle it I’ll switch to weekly weighing. It can be frustrating when you don’t lose weight every single day when you’re eating so few calories. But usually I can accept daily fluctuations as interesting.
Today’s plan:
B: bacon, cucumber, tomato
L: roast beef and veges
D: family dinner at sister-in-law’s, assuming I feel well enough
Obviously the family dinner could be tricky, I’m still feeling tired and sore and I’m not sure I’m up to it physically or socially. And I don’t know what she will serve, it’s easy when it’s “family style” as they call it in the US, serve yourself from big platters because I can take what and how much I want. But sometimes it will be individual plates piled high with mashed potato or something. And they can be very insistent on dessert. (I can be just as determined saying no thank you.) Today I can use the operation as an excuse for not eating much, anyway!
We take in turns cooking each week, it’s easier for me when I cook!
I have some goals for the week. I’ve done very well cutting out all the things BSD doesn’t allow, but I need to add in some healthy habits.
* two serves of fish this week (had one in first week). I’m not a huge fan and my husband and daughter won’t eat seafood at all so it’s an effort to include it, but I know it’s healthy
* two serves of healthy carbs like quinoa or lentils. I’ve been sticking to just veges so far but MM uses a lot of these things in his recipes. I love quinoa so I’ve scheduled that in, bit worried about keeping carb count down!
* 30 min walk every day instead of occasionally, dependant on my recovery of course
* at least two sessions of listening to one of my meditation apps.
Anything I haven’t covered?
Have a great Sunday, wherever you are!
