Sleep

Sleep for me is extremely important. Without it I lose all motivation, for both exercise and food preparation. Even sleeping in for me is an issue. It throws out all my routine. When I eat my breakfast later my lunch is later but my dinner stays the same. This means I usually miss out on …

Trying again

Today 2 years ago I tried to climb a mountain. I made I about half way before turning home exhausted. Ever since it has been a task that terrifies me. All because I didn't make it all the way to the top first try. Until I made it to the top today I never gave …

Running late

This my signature move. I am always late. I try my best to plan ahead and make lunches the night before. When I forget my aim is to pick up my snacks. Usually fruit and a yoghurt. Snacks are my biggest downfall by far. After that, the next move I have is to think ahead. …

Deli traps

I know how easy it is for me to go up town and end up coming home with a something from the deli counter. While they aren't always the worst choice, it is important to remember that the person behind the counter doesn't weigh what they are putting into your food. Often you may get …

Feeling great

Today was fantastic. Got out for a short walk and a long walk. Also had a fakeaway, a lovely spice bag. I am back on the wagon. I feel great. It is amazing how quickly changing your food can make you feel on top of the world. It is the best kind of motivation you …

Takeaway or Fakeaway

Takeaway's are often something we make as a quick fix for not wanting to cook. It is rarely because you want the food you order. This for me is what causes the biggest guilt of all. I have the food ordered before I even think about it. When the guilt hits, I don't even enjoy …

Why today?

So I woke up this morning nervous for my weigh in. Got weighed and I was up a pound. Then I took control, I decided this will be my day.  As the day went on I made good choices. Including an hour walk and keeping all but 1 bite. So what could go wrong. Well …

Trying something new

So today I went to the shop for light coleslaw. Why? Because I have never made coleslaw myself. Madness paying €2 for a tub of coleslaw that is tiny but also I will have to use my bites for. When I got to the shop it was sold out. Probably the best possible senario looking …

Pre weigh day jitters

So weigh day is tomorrow. I can feel the pressure mounting. The day before is always a dodgy one for me. I try to be good but come the evening I tend to have a few sneaky treats, new week tomorrow after all. I have decided to kick this habit. Why? This is down to …
