Ok, taking a blog day to talk about beans before going onto the subject of cocktails either tomorrow or Saturday. Lia, our consultant told us a really interesting fact that each lb we lose is the equivalent of a tin of baked beans! So, if I have lost 3 stone 3.5lbs then I have lost 45.5 tins worth of beans. Just imagine carrying those home from the supermarket, it sounds really really heavy!!!
That thought struck me more than anything else and I really don't want to carry round that weight again especially as I think it contributed to back pain and illness more so than anything else. No wonder I didn't want to exercise I must admit I have had a break from exercise as I have been poorly but can't wait to get back on it again. I have been running but it's getting really cold now so will probably get on the exercise dvds. I feel like I have more energy than I ever had before and I am able to join in with the children's games at lunchtime without feeling the after effects.
I am looking forward to my pizza night tonight I have a warburtons square wrap 8 syns and just add passata and ham, pineapple, lighter cheese 45g (healthy A) and some oregano and under a grill, done with some salad! I will try out the smash version one day but for a super quick meal when you have a meeting (i.e. tonight) it is so easy and much healthier than getting on the phone for food or picking something up.
