Typical Monday morning
I hate mondays. i think i have an old post that starts with something similar. But really...i do
Yesterday was awesome. I drove to coleraine to pick up the OH from his brother's house and decided at the last minute to bring the mutt with me. Once I picked him up we went to downhill beach for a frolick on the cold beach. Which resulted in me him and the stupid mutt (i love her really!) covered from head to toe in sand salt and water! with not a towel between us. Good times!!! I did manage to stick to my diet plan though, despite the presence of every ice cream truck in the land, which was
Breakfast - vanilla date oatmeal
Lunch - BLT (balsamic, lettuce and tomato)
Dinner - Mexican chicken (yipee!!) salad - which was lush! i really must start posting some of the really yummy recipes on here for all to try
Snack 1 - Pistachio nuts (50)
Snack 2 - chocolate mousee (made from tofu and cocoa powder). Not a success i must say. But i think if i blend the tofu with a little melted chocolate instead it will be much tastier and still much less calorific
Today - not so well
Slept in (and i even remembered to put the clocks forward!) but still slept in.
Managed to get my ass showered and looking presentable (well not just my ass, but aherm you know what i mean. I hope. not that i go round flashing my ass to people., I should though because its fit., aherm i'm rambling) but had no time to make breakfast or lunch to plan.
Breakfast was simple enough - 6oz plain yoghurt, 1/2cup granola 1/2cup fresh raspberries.
Lunch - meh i didnt have half the ingredients i should have had to make my planned lunch of courgette frittata even though i went shopping at the weekend. But i have stuck to the healthy very little meat plan and am opting for 2 slices wholemeal toast and a snackpot of baked beans.
Snack - apple and 1 slice cheddar cheese
Tonight for dinner i think im having some sort of spicy chilli dish thing (i cant really remember) but i know i have all the ingredients i require. And walking the dog for exercise
I do think i need to get back to the gym though, i'm suffering from having no regular form of dedicated exercise and even though im walking the dog and going hiking at the weekends, its not enough to tone/firm the flabby areas us girls seem so intent on pummelling to death eg thighs bum (here i go with the ass thing again) stomach. So perhaps next month i shall resurrect my gum membership and start training again. hurrah!
Hope you all have a good day
