Woohoo - a week down tomorrow! Although I am obviously not going to be able to celebrate with a glass of wine or a nice, thick piece of the caramel slice I just made, it is going to be exciting to know I am a third of the way through. Maybe I will celebrate with a nice big glass of coconut water...
So, my eating has become pretty routine. Both breakfast and dinner were exactly the same (I missed lunch because I was just wasn't feeling it), with my snacks being the same except for no almond butter! I somehow made it through the day without it! Definitely an extra cup of peppermint tea was needed though!
Exercise was unexpected and ended up being a run! My partner and his son wanted to go for a bike ride, so we organsied to meet up with a friend who has a daughter around the same age as my niece. The idea was that I would drop the boys off, drive closer to KiwiYo (amazingly delicious frozen yoghurt) and walk with my niece in the pram. When I dropped the boys off, I decided that I would walk that little bit further pushing the stroller. However, once we got started I automatically started running, pushing the stroller with the heavy toddler in it! I ran to KiwiYo and back, which ended up being around seven kilometres - not bad for my day off exercise!
One thing I did notice today was that I was very fatigued by the afternoon, and that I lose my appetite for a good portion of the day (I did take a pack of almonds with me when I went for my run, but I fed them to my niece to stop her from talking), only eating breakfast and dinner. Because of this, I ate a few of the kumara chips that I made with the kids for dinner - I have been exercising a lot this week and think I am in need of something to fuel me.
I have found something very exciting that I am going to make tomorrow - I will keep you posted on the results!
