I'm not going to look back for my last post from the weekend. The event I was at on Saturday had 2 food vans, one ice creams and one hot dogs and chips. I had a hot dog, it was much bigger than hot dogs used to be! Then on Sunday my family decided to order pizzas. For some reason the 6 inch I wanted wasn't available and they got me a 10 inch pizza. Couldn't finish it, so won't be ordering one of those again. So my choices were not the best at the weekend.
Monday and Tuesday I was looking after my grandson, some of my choices were good but some were not. We went to the beach and bought ice creams yesterday as a treat.
Today I was thinking I wouldn't bother logging, but I know how easy it is to "forget" each day so I weighed and logged my breakfast.
I'm in a lot of pain right now so think I will have a day off dog walking.
I've received an invitation to a wedding in October, my lovely nephew is getting married. I want to dress up in honour of the occasion, but am useless with clothes at the best of times! With all my back issues I really struggle with heels. Losing some weight before October would really help with finding an outfit.

Jft - 8/1
1. Plan my meals starting with dinner. I can sort of work around the rest of it.... Not sure how I'll manage this one
2. Drink water before each meal and snack every day check.
3. Work in either a 15-20 min walk or workout 3 times this week. (probably won't get to walk, I already completed 1 out of 3 walks) [/quote]
I've been logging a majority of my foods. It was hard to plan out my meals, but somehow I made it work.
I got through one exercise walk this week. If I walk tomorrow, I know I'll be walking a lot on Sat.
I've been doing okay with the water
I'm going to keep the same goals for the rest of the week.
I'm going to add that I am making a commitment to going to bed. There are things to do, but I think it's better to get to bed "early" tonight.2 -

I hate wearing new shoes! New pair were good for soles and arches, but they rubbed the top of my foot. so I was limping by the time I got home. I've been looking online for exercises to help with plantar faciitis, don't know who to believe, such differing advice out there.

Hey everyone! Sorry I've not been on!
Kids started the summer holidays and any time I get to myself is.. you know.. gone. 😂
Feel like I've been busy but it's.more like my brains been busy and in reality my body's not getting that much done 😂
I feel stressed though, hopefully having my new flooring put down this weekend. But I don't like having people in my house 😂 my house is like my sanctuary and when other people are here I feel like I can't live/relax in it as I normally would when someone else is around.
Plus I've got 3 kids AND an daft dog which I have to try keep off a screeded floor for a few hours. I know Ash is gonna help too but the thought of it seems chaotic. Plus this kids like to "show off" to anyone in the house, as any kids do and it can be real embarrassing sometimes 😂
After this weekend I think I'll be able to relax. Get the kids out more. Were doing one "expensive" day out to a huge funfair. It will only be as expensive as we let it be.
Then we're doing some cheap/free days out.
We can visit 3 museums for one ticket. And it's fairly priced. And they're all local to the area and based on the area.
So we can visit the oldest townhouse in the area (that's where we found out about the tickets and man it does look SO old, but cool) and then there's an air raid shelter one and then we can visit an old hall which only a bus ride out the area but down the road from where I used to grow up! (In fact I went there on a school trip in primary school for 'Tudor Day')
Then there's two big museums in Manchester, the Manchester History Museum (that's just been renovated, me and Ash went) and then there's the Science and Industry museum
That's my FAVOURITE and deffo for kids!!
At the minute they've got an exhibition on that is all about the digestive system and it's all interactive too I think. So you start at the mouth and work your way through to... Well you guessed it.
Apparently the kids get "poo hats" and can pretend to be the poo in the intestines 😂😂😂 sounds hilarious.
IF we go, I will take pics for you all 😂
Think fitness and exercise will have to take a backseat but I'll probs do the odd exercise here and there but I don't think I can commit to it right now.
That DOES NOT mean I'm giving up though, I can still be mindful, still eat well even if it not a priority.
I don't wanna step on the scales in a month time and realise I have to redo all the work I've done!
Hope everyone else is good.
I've read everyone's posts, but not had chance to reply!
