New Attitude

I'm back!

I have a new positive attitude and I'm raring to go!

I realised over the weekend I was sabotaging my own success, and I've gone right back to basics with SW and started again as if it was my first week. I know it works I just needed to get back in the right headspace as I said before.
I've got the whole weeks meals planned, lots and lots of veg (I find it easier to incorporate lots of veg into my meals than lots of fruit..), I've done one session on the exercise bike, got zumba tonight and badminton tomorrow, and weather permtting me and husband are going on a long walk over the weekend.
I've homecooked every meal so far this week (last week was really bad, out to eat 3 times and didnt have any food in or time to go shopping so subesquently didnt make the best choices) and all the meals included loads of veg. I'm drinking lots of water and limiting my snacks. I feel better already!

I didnt go to weigh in on Monday as I was off ill, waited right up until 1 hour before class to text my consultant as I really didnt want to miss a week, but I felt truly awful. In a way, it was a good thing. I knew I was probably on course for a gain which I was dreading. And this has kind of given me a fresh new start. Husband was worried I would go off the rails and stop completely like I have in the past-but I assured him I was more determined than ever and have so far proven it!

I've had some really nice meals since the weekend - vegetarian curry/ soft cheese and cherry tomato stuffed chicken with veg, parsnips and herby boiled potatoes/ chicken and butternut squash risotto/ spicey quorn sausage bake... Tonight I'm having pasta serve as I have zumba and need something quick before I go. Tomorrow I'm making a salmon and prawn pasta concoction with steamed veg. Not sure about Saturday's tea yet but Sunday will be steamed salmon with sw chips and roasted veg (ya know, something light before weigh in on Monday haha). It feels good to have the meals planned and sorted, I feel a lot more organised and I think this is going to be the key going forward.

So there you go, a post that is like the cheese to my last posts chalk.

I'm really going to try and keep the positive attitude, and in regards to ttc- when it happens it happens. I may not feel like that next week or even tomorrow, but for now I do so I'm making the most of it.
