Weeping Wednesday

So how to nip a bad day in the bud before it happens. I woke up thismorning with raging sore throat and head ache - obviously a cold. So there will be no swimming for a few days and reduced walking until I see where the cold is going (which is hopefully nowhere.)

Of course with children you just can't stop just because you don't feel too good, they don't get it. I've already prepared breakfasts and gotten one of them off to school. The other one has been asked to practice the piano and clean her room. For me today, it is piano lesson this afternoon if my teacher will have me in the state I'm in, otherwise it is paperwork/tax, phone calls and bill paying day.

I'd love to do some scrapbooking, haven't had a chance to do that in such a long long time and I now have a stash of pictures that need to be archived before they get lost in the great abyss of this computer.

However to business: Food plan for today:-)

Breakfast: Home made low fat bircher muesli, fresh fruit (apple, rockmelon and peach) all topped with 80g of low fat natural yoghurt (and if its not sweet enough a teaspoon of sugar to make it palatable). (4.5) (now that sounds depressing!)

Lunch: 4 rice thins topped with thin layer of Philladelphia extra lite spread, 50g ham, cucumber, tomato, grated carrot and beetroot. (3.5)

Dinner: Weight Watchers recipe: Tabouli and chicken salad (and it was yummy). (6.5)

Snacks: Low fat icecream (1.5).

I actually have had a shocker today, and I don't feel too good with this cold and all, I've eaten much more than I should have too. Added 2 slices of home made bread with strawberry jam on top (at least I didn't use butter) And managed to keep within the my allocated allowance.

Also joined in on a 10000 step challenge yesterday and managed 11,232 steps today. Should do much more when feeling better.
