Mum on a Mission

This new mum is on a mission…to lose weight, to be the best mum I can, to be creative and to be the best version of "ME" I can.

Day Two

August2

Breakfast was a massive fruit smoothie, well it seemed massive anyway! I had some liquid as my blender wasn’t blending the fruit and little bit of yoghurt by itself so I added about 1/2 cup of some juice that was left over in the fridge. Again, I’ve bent the rules a little bit. So I had my smoothie along with 15 almonds which I ate over the course of the morning. I should have really had my morning snack before I went to my first PT session but I didn’t in the end, naughty, naughty.

You really can’t make the right decisions about food when your hungry. For lunch I ended up having leftover chicken chow mein, a lot of it was veges, only a small amount of noodles but approx 3/4 cup of chicken. I should have had a chicken sandwich using the chicken from the chow mein instead but I was too hungry and didn’t have the patience cut up the chicken for the sandwich so I just heated it all up.

First PT session – It wasn’t really a true session as such as it was the first one so we were going over all  the equipment and she was seeing what sort of weights I can do for when she writes the program. I am terribly unfit. I was starting to get slightly out of breath just doing the warm up! How disgusting is that?! My mind automatically defaulted to “your still a bit sick that’s why you’re out of breath” thinking but I know the truth. I’m fat and unfit and have been treating my body badly. Tomorrow is our first proper session, so we’ll see how that goes!

I’ve just finished afternoon tea – combined with morning tea. 6 crackers, 1l2 with 30g of thinly sliced Edam cheese and the other 1/2 with 40g of salmon. It actually called for Tuna but I don’t eat tuna so I swapped it out. the crackers were a bit dry but it was quite nice with the salmon really.

Tonight at work I’m going to have a green or fruit tea instead of tea with sugar and milk. I still want to have something warm so that’s how I’m going to change my habit :) I’m a work in progress but I will get there.

Oh and I MUST do my measurements before it’s too late!

Ta ta for now

Hi, I’m Cheryl and this blog is all about my missions in life.

Number 1 is to be the best mum I can to my little boy who was born in May 2010. My next priority is to lose weight which is what prompted me to start this blog in the first place. It’s  going to be a place for me to share with you on this journey. I love to be creative so will also be sharing my flashes of creativity in all things artsy and craftsy.

I’m not perfect so I will endeavour to be as honest as possible in my posts especially when it comes to any failures I will most likely have in my weight loss mission and in my new job as a Mum. The most important thing I need to remember is when I fall off the wagon that I get right back on again.
