News of Yesterday

Well by bad start to the day was not improved very much. I did not exercise except a very short walk. I made an apple crumble (very healthy with apple and sultanas cooked in a bit of apple juice and topped with a crumble made from oatmeal, ground pecan nuts and seeds). My son also wanted to make some scones so I made enough mixture for just two and we had a quarter of a small scone each with some butter. We had fish and chips in the evening too - home made with olive oil so healthier than take out ones.

Despite this I managed to lose weight and I was 10 stone 3.6 pounds this morning. I think it was probably due to the lack of exercise and therefore lack of weight gain through muscle formation but I am not sure really.

My husband did brilliantly - he kept his portions low and although he only did a short walk as well he is back down below 16 stone. I am really proud of him.
