The Not So Exciting Day It Should Have Been...

Well, I don't have to worry about watching what I eat at this wedding i had planned... I haven't gone. got all dressed up and felt beautiful but Mum isn't feeling well so its turned into a night in for me, while she sleeps it off. Sister is out for her Birthday meal with friends (and i felt too dressed up to go out for that and they were going to TGI fridays, and as much as I love their food, it is incredibly hard to make good food decisions there so I stayed well clear!) so its 8pm, I'm in my PJ's and ready for bed. What an exciting life I lead... NOT!
Not much to blog about today... (though I'm sure ill find stuff to ramble on about)


Food wise it has been a good day and instead of eating horrifically calorific wedding food I am having a tin of Heinz Tomato and Butterbean Soup. At only 91 Calories per serving(half a tin); its tasty and filling and just what I need to avoid getting the munchies later on tonight! (though seeing as I haven't gone to the wedding, a small slice of my sisters birthday cake may be on the card with my film later!)
Started my day with my Actimel as usual and a piece of toast with Marmite which I loveee :). On the subject of Marmite, I was in Selfridges a few weeks ago and there was a whole range of Marmite products... including chocolate with Marmite in! Curiosity got the better of me, and brought some... and I will admit Marmite, as much as i love your product; that definitely is a very acquired taste! One i do not possess; and can honestly say if that was the only chocolate left on the earth, this dieting and avoidance of all things naughty would be the easiest!!
For lunch I had chicken pasta salad which had beetroot salad in from Tesco which is around 100 calories for 100g which I think was definitely worth it, because it was also the dressing to my pasta salad! Also in my salad was chicken breast, sweetcorn, cucumber, onion and Jalapeños which are one of my favourite foods and add that kick to liven up most types of food! I also had 40g of cheese grated in, added to the taste and really enjoyed it! Will definitely be having it again! 
Haven't done much exercise today to be honest, had a typical lazy Sunday which is nice, because next Sunday i'll be at work! Spent a lot of the day writing an essay for university which needs to be in on Tuesday and I'm doing well! Its on a subject I am actually interested in which makes a difference! All to do with childhood obesity and physical movement and reading some of the statistics I have found on the growing levels of obesity is shocking! But has also been motivating to lose the flab and avoid the health risks that comes with being a giant fatty that I am!


Anyway, I think that is it for today... Nothing else to report or moan about!
Soup time, film and cake, maybe a bit more uni work and then bed for me, ready for another 7 hour coach journey back to good old Bideford! (lets hope I get a more comfortable coach this time!)

  1. I hope the journey back wasn't toooo awful! Our coach home was pretty empty; clear Bristol isn't as exciting as Brum! xo
