A new number at last!

Weight today : 14st 12lbs
Weight lost : 2lbs
Total loss: 4lbs










So I had a wee twist playing netball this week. I was late, so missed the warm up, and I was playing hard...when oops! just a pulled a muscle or something. I 'RICE'd' it all night and it felt much better the next day, and now I'd say it's pretty much fine. 

So the past couple of weeks I've been trying to up my fruit & veg portions to 10 a day. The good news is I didn't get the runs, nor the scurvy so all good. Typically I start my day with a small glass of orange juice to take my meds. Now many folk don't agree with OJ (just liquid sugar) but I like it. a) I'd forget to take my meds if I didn't have a glass b) it helps me go (Go where? - come on, you know what I mean, don't make me say it!!) It's pure juice, not from concentrate, and with lots of juicy bits so it definitely counts as 1. For breakfast I mostly have fruit with greek yogurt and granola. I will have raspberries, grapes & half a banana and there are raisins in the granola. Now even though this is 4 types of fruit it can't be 4 portions as that would be a big breakfast so I'm guessing its 2. Lunch is salad - lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, peppers, onions - so I'm going to say another 2. I snack on fruit or sugarsnap peas so that will be another 1. Then my supper will be something with veg and I'll go for 3 portions (and no! I'm not including potatoes). Total = 9. Not bad, but on somedays it might only be 7 or 8 (or shock horror - even less). 

So happy to be finally in another number (stone wise). Lets keep it up. As long as I don't go away on holiday I should be ok.

I don't have any vegetable jokes, but if you do lettuce know.
