Busy week..

 Spring has sprung.

All the wild ducks are hatching out their babies. Miss Bobby below 👇 has hatched hers and is heading off to the river with them. Bob and Bobby Duck have been coming here to our place and hatching out their babies for a lot of years now.  

The weather has been glorious for a few days, but today it turned and we had rain again.

It’s been busy, I have the little grandkids for the 5 night stint, onto #4 tonight. Summer has decided that anytime between 4.20 and 5.20am is a good time to wake up 🙇‍♀️, that what we’ve had the past 3 nights. 

Meant to be daycare tomorrow but it’s back up to Drs tomorrow, think she has yet another bout of foot and mouth. That’s about the 6th or 7th time this year. Received a email from them last week to say that they had a case confirmed and to keep our eyes on Summer as they know she is susceptible to it. Not impressed with the daycare, lovely educators and great set up and Summer loves the place BUT something is not right. Why is there so many bouts of these foot and mouth and school sores happening there? Is it the daycare or the parents not following health guidelines.

I’m off to work tomorrow and the next day. Before work I’m taking Summer to Drs for a check up to be 100% sure she has foot and mouth. If she has Kylee will have to leave work early to care for her. 

Friday we are heading off for 6 nights to go camping. I’m going to do my best to keep as much to WW as I can. Have already precooked a few things and froze them ready to pack to keep me focused. I don’t want to fall off the wagon while I’m doing well. Plan to do some beach walking, some fishing…so fresh fish on the bbq is on the menu. 

400grams lost on my weigh in Saturday. 👏👌

Go me 😊

Weigh in day ...

A month in with WW.
I changed my weigh in day with them to coincide with my online group so I wasn’t weighing in twice. Really didn’t want to weigh Saturday’s  as I didn’t want to fall into the trap of “giving myself a free day”. 
With WW that’s hard to do if you track everything which I am doing.
Right…..after my bad Saturday last week,  and changing weigh in I had a week to right my wrong.
Result….300g loss 😚😙
I was so excited to weigh in, I was 100% on track and was expecting a good result. I was a little disappointed with the small loss but hey a loss is a loss and all these little numbers will add up to bigger ones….right??

I didn’t know how I would go yesterday, was nearly tempted to weigh in then instead of today. It was the 6th anniversary of our Paul’s passing. Boy, we miss him so, our hearts are still all broken 💔💔
Paul was a devoted partner, the best Dad, a loving son. He had the biggest wicked laugh, a cheeky nature and other than his family he loved the big outdoors.

3weeks in…

 Yesterday was my online weight loss group weigh in. 

A stay the same this week…..not 100% sure why, I followed the plan, tracked and only used 6 bonus points. Maybe too much bread…💁 

Anyway, after weigh in and breakfast I took the kids down the park. They got to burn some energy and I managed a few thousand steps keeping up with them. Summer is a real little dare devil and has no fear.  I got them home for lunch and their mum got home from work and I took off for my afternoon shift, it was a busy one.

Got home and realised I hadn’t taken anything out for dinner. Only hubby and son to cook for and they requested a steak sandwich….easy peasy 😋

But I fell in a hole. Instead of having what I planned I hit a roadblock and indulged big time. I used up 52 points…left 6 bonus ones for the week. 

I got onto my ww app this morning and changed my weigh in to Saturday as well….that way I’m not weighing in twice a week.  Plus it gives me a chance to get over my “blow out”

Today, taken the kids down the park again, managed 6000 steps running around after them, well the little dare devil anyway.  Food has been good. Been online and researched recipes for 0 and low point meals for me for the rest of the week. Not going to blow this, not when I’m enjoying it so much.
