It feels strange to be back blogging after a break.
I did quite well on holiday, I took the juicer!!!! I also resisted the temptation to have wine and crisps on an evening which was OK, we didn't really miss them. We ate out on numerous occasions but I had made a low fat veg soup and a lentil stew( sounds dreary but is really tasty) so we had them on an evening as a lighter option. I didn't over do things when we ate out, I had what I fancied and had fish and chips but balanced it out in the evening. I managed well energy wise but got a bit cranky towards the end of the holiday ( I now know I was pre menstrual)I am going to try and find a way to stop the dips in mood.
I have been over on Claires Blog Raising the next generation and she has a post about Super foods and I am trying to find out more as I could certainly do with some of that.....
Over the weeks I have lost 6 lbs, it is a steady loss, and I hope it continues.I need to start some gentle excersise and am thinking of going to a yoga class and starting to take Beauty out for short walks( we now have a harness and a lead on her collar and Al says she is easier to control when she lunges which means I won't be expending too much energy just controlling her)that's the plan for next week so lets see if I can motivate myself.......
