I have been avoiding this for some time (two weeks and one day to be exact), however today is the day to start eating healthy so I can make headway on my initial goal of losing 20 kilos (44 pounds)…eek. I say initial as another 10 kilos on top of that would be optimal in the long long term.
The last two weeks have been filled with far too much bread and butter (bored in hospital), chocolate (bought by my well meaning husband), icecream (ditto), cookies and takeaway food.
I think I can safely say that I have had enough indulgence and even though I am breastfeeding and need my energy, that I don´t need that much energy! I know from past experience that I have to put the brakes on and due to being overweight already, I don´t need to eat extra. Luckily, the warm weather is here (mostly) so I feel more motivated to try and eat properly.
I haven´t fully got to grips with my apple three times a day plan, however I can always start again today
– I have been a bit sporadic.
The other thing I am going to do as of today, is chocolate only once a week (Sundays?) and reread some healthy eating and cooking books this week for inspiration.
I will report back each Wednesday on how the scales have moved…
