I did it

Hi everyone

 I am so proud of myself. I jogged only for 5 mins, But I did it and I only got a little out of breath.  I'm so chuffed with my self I've never been able to run not even as a little girl. So I have decide that I'm going to try it again tomorrow. My oh also said this morning that I have sped up while walking  How cool is that.:) Smiles all round for me.  So that two thing to keep me motivated I've sped up and I've lost inches  how cool is that. I'm a happy mumma today.  

I am really surprised how much energy I have I managed to get lots more done and I felt good after to of accomplished it. Over the year so many of my chore would only get half done because i didn't have the energy now i have no excuse. all i have to do now is make sure I drink more at the moment I'm only drinking a 1.5 ltrs a day I been told I need to drink at least 3 ltrs I think i need to keep eating the fruit but am loving at the moment scrambled eggs and toast 

so I will keep trying. I'm also going to start keeping a photo food diary as well. I hope that will keep me on track. 

I have decided to start doing more homemade cooking.  I already do a lot of home cooking and I enjoy preparing food and knowing what in side and what I'm eating. I also prefer to take a pack lunch instead of eating out.   Yesterday I made bread for the first time yay.  I made it with wholewheat strong flour I did add oil as the recipe said and it made it stodgy but still nice. The boys have munched most of it for there tea lol. 

I like making homemade soup to. I seem to have my Yorkie puds down to a tea and been told I make good dumpling and beef casserole. I am planning to make some biscuits and some mini cakes for the kids over the next week hoping to get J to help me that should be fun. 

I have also been doing more crocheting this week I've made some hats thesse little shoes and another cup holder

hope everyone's had a great Monday  

KEEP SMILING and night

take care M

Day 28 and I'm still doing it

HI people 


I seem to be weighing my self to much.I guess that's the problem with having scales at home 
I'm really pleased with my loss so far but i keep finding my self getting stuck for things to have that are different. So far today I've had my fruit and bite size shredded wheat with natural fat free yogurt  at about 11 clock so not had lunch yet. 
But I' had 3 chicken legs and salad and noodles and beetroot also pickle onions and 2tbsp of  ex light mayonnaise for dinner.  
Doe's anyone have a all time favorite food  I do mine is cucumber and beetroot I could eat it all day.
I've also done 40 minutes on the Wii  fit jogging and the obstical course and the steps. I've also been chasing J around. but we have not left the house.

I'm so proud of myself

Hi everyone 

Ok this is yesterdays blog which i forgot to post please enjoy.

I have had a slacks couple of days where I just didn't care what I was eating then today I stood on the scale yesterday and I've gained a pound. So I'm back on it now been really good so far and have planned all my meals for the next coupe of day.  

I think that with me I have to think all the time about what I'm doing then I'm a were of whats going into my mouth.  Doe's that make sense it does to me.

So today I had toast with dry fried scrambled eggs and baked beans for breakfast.
Then i had  tuna and sweetcorn salad for lunch.

Then I had slow cooked  mince and rice for dinner it was I little bit bland so will add more flavor next time
I had jam roly poly for pudding with a little custard.

I have been busy trying to make baby shoes and hats so far there way to small so i will keep trying the ones i have done i think i might donate them to my local hospital. When I lost my little girl the midwife put this really sweet cute little pink cardigan on her and wrapped her in a crochet blanket with little flowers on it was sweet. I did ask where they were from and she said someone had donated them. I still wish i could say thank you as they were beautiful.  So I have decided that I would make some blankets and hat for them to use. we will have to see what happens 

I'm so proud of my self today.  I just did a walk that normally would take me 35/40 min in 20 minutes how cool is that in so proud of me. It has lifted my self a steam so much I want to do it again which for me is brilliant. 

Then I did it again i left home at 5 pick J up from nursery at 5.10 then was at TJ's school at 5.25. so it been a good day I haven't done all my steps but I've done my best and am pleased with what i have done.

Take care and please post a comment
thank

my new year resolutions and my day

Hi people

Ok I've started my new years resolusions
1. I want and am going to loses 100lb this year.
2. I want to do a vlog  on you tube./ Done a vlog on youtube
3. I want to right on my blog everyday. so far so good
4. I am going to do a little exercise everyday. so far so good
5. keep track on myfitnessplan
6. I would really like to do a craft sale
7. I am going to craft everyday and get my boys to join in.
I could write loads down but i think these 7 are the best one


So for on my crafting I have  been working on a cup/can cosie  as I have arthritis in my Joints my hand hurt if I hold anything that is to cold or hot for to long.
The 3 week  I burnt my leg because i lost my grip on a hot cup of coffee one of the members of staff laughed at me and I really bent his ear for laughing and not  helping me and did he realize how much trouble he would get in if i complained a left the place in the foulest of mood with a fresh coffee. about ten minutes later i charmed down and i went back in and found the manager shouting at him i went over and explained that it was my fault and he didn't deserve to be in trouble as it everybody's first instinct to laugh when someone drops something. the manager said if I was sure and I said I was and he said in future ask if all OK the walk away and laugh then walked away I told the man I was really sorry and he said thank you he was going to fire me.  I'm so glad we went back. last week and the week before he has brought me a coffee told him he does'nt need to but he said my wife and I think we do so see you next week how sweet it that. ;)
So I;m going to make cup cosie to keep in my hand bag.
I am also going to make more doggie coats as I enjoyed doing them thought if i do them in the small sizes if I manage to do a craft fair this year I might be able to sell them. But got to check the copy right of the pattern first. IF I can't  use it I'm going to see if i can make my own pattern that would be another first.

Any way diet

Well I've had a bad day health wise as my asthma has been bad. But I have still managed to walk about 4550 steps probably i took my pedomitor off as I had a lay down and forgot to put it back on so if you add the school run it about 6000so that good.

Food wise I skipped breakfast as I was up late but had an apple.
Then when I got home I had fat free natural yogurt with mixed frozen fruit it was yummy

frozen mixed berries and fat free yogurt 

Then for lunch I had a ham roll with laughing cow light and ham and a little pickle with a little salad
Then for dinner My OH made what I call a chicken throw together which is chicken chopped into chunk veggies of choose we had leftovers from Sunday dinner and stock cube and herbs all cooked slowly together on a bed of rice now on slimming world on extra easy this is free so if wanted you could eat loads I didn't which makes a change so all in all a good day. I forgot to take my food picture promise tomorrow.

But through out the day I have wanted salt and I don't no why. This morning I gave my 6yr old TJ some cheeselets and had a couple and they were so yummy when I got home i weighed out 30g and ate them now there all gone but my craving for salt has to but that's like loads of syns and calories it like a 1000 calories for the whole tub. But I was talking to my friend and she said it wont matter as I'm not well and told me to stand on the scales to check so with her to my ear I did and she was right but I'm not doing that again I was so up set with my self
Sorry moan over
