Day 7, part 1: 8th June, Saturday

8th June, Saturday

Weather: Hot and Sunny
Feeling: Tired but accomplished

Today has been good, I started off by sorting out my room which was good because I managed to clear up everything that my sister has put in my room, as she is in the process of moving from her house in Cardiff back into my parent's house.  While my mum was out shopping I got on with clearing, I turned my bed through 90 degrees which allows me to sleep better.  The main problem I had with this was where I would put my desk, but as I'm not using it much at the moment anyway I have made it almost impossible to use.  But I was so happy to be able to open both my curtains instead of just one side.  By the time my mum got back from the shop, I had moved everything and made it so my sister's stuff was along my window as well as turned my bed and generally cleaned and cleared my bedroom.  

I was happy with my progress so took a little break, which unfortunately turned into about a 3 or 4 hour break whilst helping mum with putting the shopping away, having "breakfast" which was more like brunch or lunch, and then generally helping out around the house.  I finally got back to my room about 2pm.  I decided to put on an episode of "Supernatural" and watch that while I finished off the last bits of my room.  I slowly got through finishing it just in time to be called downstairs to put the washing out, while my dad put on some rice for dinner (it was Chilli night, which I was happy about as I've been wanting Chilli for a long time).  After dinner I had a little bit of time to relax before getting ready to head out to work at 8:30pm.  I was on the late shift, which I don't mind because usually it's quite quiet and on Saturday night, we do a thorough deep clean of everything.  It wasn't too busy and I managed to clean everything in time for closing.  My boss had even cooked me some food to take home at 11pm.  I ended up getting home at just gone 11, but didn't end up going to bed until almost midnight because my parents were still awake and then mum and I started talking (as usual) and so slowly ambled upstairs around 11:50.  

Losing Weight:

Breakfast: I didn't really have breakfast today, as I wasn't very hungry, but I did have a slice of bread and margarine (light, obviously) at about 11:30am

Lunch: I had lunch about 2:15 after making some soup (more like a broth) with cabbage, (I know sounds bad but try it, it's yummy!) carrots, mushrooms, rice noodles, vegetable stock cube, pinch of dried chilli flakes and some water.

Dinner: Pork Chilli and Rice.

Snacks: I had 2 mini chuppa chup lollies spread out throughout the day.  After work I ate half of the rice my boss had prepared (rice twice in a day, I know, bad right!)

Overall I think I did ok today, I didn't need the rice when I came home but I was a little hungry after work and it was very nice of my boss to give me some food.  I drank plenty throughout the day so I was happy with that area of the diet.  Next week is my toe surgery so will be doing less exercise next week but after that I hope to increase my exercise as well by going on the Wii Fit/Wii Fit Plus/Zumba at least 3 times a week.  

In keeping with number 13 on my summer list (to take a picture everyday... ok, maybe not everyday now but most days) here is today's photo (which I took after work so I was very tired):


I'd love to hear from you guys, let me know about your summer plans, what you've done so far or anything you want me to talk about by leaving a comment, or sending me an email to the usual (sandra.spencelayh.92@gmail.com).  Hope you're having a great break, have fun!
