Now the silly season is truly over and we are back to normal. Australia Day I had great plans to stay off the alcohol and sugar but of course failed. Who can resist a Black Russian, champagne and pavalova with berries and lemon curd :- ) Yummy.
I really should rename this blog as I have definitely decided that we will not be doing a whole 30. At least not this year. Our social calendar is already filling up with weekend trips away to Melbourne and the Hunter Valley as well as camping trips. Unfortunately when we are socializing with our friends its very hard to avoid the champagne and this is not because I have to follow the "sheep" but simply because I enjoy a glass of champagne with my girl friends. Eating is not that much of a problem I am learning to skip the cheese and chips and make sure we have some yummy nuts to snack on instead. As we are all getting older we no longer drink to "excess" so a few drinks are not going to kill us.
At home we are eating well and we both enjoy the foods we eat. Always fresh and nothing processed. Even when we eat out which is getting less these days we can still enjoy some meat and veg or salad its quite easy to say "No Chips or potato" We both agree coffee at home is better than one from a coffee shop.
On to how I am feeling.. This week "I know its is only 2 days" but I am feeling great I have been to the gym and enjoyed it and even come home and cooked something different for dinner without really feeling exhausted. I need to work on sleep now. I started last night by turning off the TV around 1/2 hour before I went to bed. I just went into my sewing room and arranged some patchwork place mates I am making. Then went to bed.
I need to keep up the positive attitude that certainly makes me feel better. Oh and the house is clean that also helps me feel positive :-)
I am hoping that some of my aches and pains will go away soon.... please!!
