Stop the rot

This week I’ve made a commitment to myself that everything I eat will go in my food diary. Including the kitkat I had for breakfast this morning. I’m overeating. Bigtime. I was 1400 cals over allowance yesterday – that’s 400 over maintenance. It’s not good. I feel lousy right now. From what I’ve eaten so far today (and bear in mind it’s only 09am here) I’ve got 93cals left to do me the rest of the day. That’s not good.

My stomach is swollen, my clothes are tight and scratchy, I’m not feeling well at all. It’s all my own fault I know that, but it’s hard getting back into any sort of good routine. It has to be done though. I need a routine again. Not something set in stone but a basic ‘Eat brekkie, eat lunch, eat dinner’ sort of thing.  And drinking water. Must drink water.

So.

Work from now til lunch time (which will be 1pm today). Go home at lunch and see Al. Come back for 2pm and home again at 4:30.

If Al hasn’t put away the dry clothes and hung out the wet ones, I’ll sort all that out. Empty the last of the suitcases. Put away the suitcases. Put away the wine bottles. Put away all the souvenirs and sort them out by person they’re going to.

The house was so tidy when we came in on Monday, it was lovely. A tidy house helps with maintaining a routine – I know this.

I also need to look at getting someone in to do a weekly tidy up or something as well. It would make life so much easier……..
