March Goals - Last Day of The Month!

Can't believe how fast this month has gone! Yes, there were only 28 days, but it flew by. Not that I am complaining I like to get Jan and Feb out of the way. I am definitely more of a summer person, even though my favourite holiday is Christmas and everything that surrounds it.

I have a feeling that this next month is going to go by just as quick. With classes, assignments and work the month will fly by. I'm hoping it flies by to March 22nd in particular! I break up on the 21st technically, but I have a late class and so I can't leave until the next day. I can't wait for my mommy to come pick me up, I'd leave right now if I could. Don't get me wrong I love where I am, but it's definitely time to go home where I can scrap the civilisation and niceties so to speak. I don't know if anyone here has ever lived with people outside of your family and closest friends? But it's tough!

:-)
This is what I have felt like saying all week :D

By scrapping civilisation and niceties, I mean the falseness you have to have around people who don't know you as well as say, your mom or best friend or siblings do. These are the people who you can't say "eff you" too and them understand that your just having a bad day and so don't want to go through the civilised sh*t you usually go through. Yep. As you can tell it's getting too me, which is why I am having some ME time. Over the last few days I have kept to myself, as the saying goes "You have nothing nice to say? Well don't say it!". I remember my mom saying this as a kid and it has always stuck with me.

Wish you got to know me better?
I think this one is true for most people, isn't it?
Nothing nice to say, don't say it at all!
So true! I always try to think before I speak.

I am one of these people who knows when they are in a bad mood and so keeps to themselves. If I was at home this wouldn't be a problem! I'd announce I was in a pissy mood and be done with it. Some people can't handle that, hence the niceties.

overthinking.
This is what I am doing at the moment!

G-d that feels good to get it out of my system!

When I'm emotional I always write about it. It distresses me. It's better out than in right? How do you guys cope when things build up and you feel like you are going to explode?


A new month to me signifies a new start, with new goals. I have been thinking about these goals ever since Friend Makin Monday, when Kenlie asked us the question of what March's goals would be.

And this what I have came up with:

Eating Goals:


  1. Eat more Veg, Fruit and Salad.
  2. Less processed, More clean.
  3. Be aware of what you're putting into your mouth. Is it because of hunger?
  4. Continue to portion size meals and foods.
  5. Drink more water/squash.

Good Reminder for me!
Found this quote and it rings so true.


Exercise Goals:

  1. Go for walks.
  2. Do exercise Dvd's.
  3. Yoga.
  4. Strength/Weight Training.
  5. Swimming.

.
At the moment if I am honest I am lacking the motivation. Once, I have found it hopefully Habit will be formed!

Last months goals, were the first time I'd written down goals to be accountable for in a while. I always have goals in my head or written down in my journal, but I felt putting them on here made me want to be more accountable and report back. And it was in many ways :D I did better on the food goals compared to the exercise goals, but that is always the case with me. I am aware of this! So, this month I am going to prioritise exercise. I am aware this next month will be busy but as long as I do one of the activities everyday it means I am getting more active and progress is being made! One a day seems doable. I realised this week that I can't do a set-up and stick to it, it was just making me stress and I wasn't getting to it anyways, which is not what I want. That's not progress!

So, I have decided as long as one gets done each day I will be satisfied. It's about working them into my schedule, not the other way around because that's not achievable. And I want this process to be successful and progress made.


This month I got back to "serious" tracking, but I guess there's always room for improvement right? But for now I am tracking and I am glad I decided to revert back to my old ways.

Do you make goals each month or goals in general?

How do you vent emotionally?

Happy Last Day of the Month Everyone! I'll speak to you next month ;D

What I've been eating lately?

First of all Congratulations to Jenn. I hope she begins to feel better soon.

Peas and Crayons

At the moment I am trying to incorporate fresh, clean, whole foods into my diet at every chance. My diet is not by any means completely clean and sometimes a piece of fruit just won't cut it and I need something like chocolate to satisfy the craving. Lately, I have been eating the dark two-finger Kit-Kat's I picked up last week, to satisfy  my craving and this has been enough.

I know it's veggie month, something I usually neglect to eat, just because I prefer Salad's and Fruits. So lately I have been adding them to omelettes, pasta and sauce meals etc and it has been going well.

Southern Fried Chicken, Side Salad, Light Mature Cheddar and Wholewheat  Pitta.

Two Egg, Cheese and Mushroom Base of Omelette.

Country Mix Vegetables.

Final Product.

Wholewheat Pasta, Country Mix Veg, Button Mushrooms, 2 Quorn Sausages and Cheese.

Bitesize Shredded Wheat, Chopped Nuts, Med Banana & Cup of Tea.


Sorry for the shortness of post I am extremely busy today. I have a deadline! So I best get on with that.

Happy Wednesday Everyone :D

Friend Makin Mondays #3


Thanks to Kenlie for hosting. Go on over to her website and check out the link ups, or even answer the questions yourself :D

1. Did you watch the Oscars? If so, who did you enjoy seeing most? 

I didn't! I used to love watching it when I was at home, but being away at Uni I miss out on all the award ceremony's though I managed to record a couple on Sky+. But I think if I record any more without being there to watch them my mom won't be very impressed in the slightest as they take up a lot of room. But I usually love seeing what everyone's wearing!

2. Do you drink meal replacement shakes, smoothies, etc?

I keep wanting to make and try smoothies and shakes, but I need to get the ingredients. I have the blender, and I keep saying that I need to try them because of my recent tummy problems. It's just getting around to it! Maybe, I should put it on my to do/ to try list for this week and report back how I get on?

3. Share one thing you have done to help someone in the last week?

God that's terrible I can't think of anything off the cuff. Hmm... I am sure I've probably done something. Brain-blank!

4. What is the tastiest thing you ate last week?  

My homemade chilli - unfortunately I didn't take any pictures. I was clearly too hungry on both occasions ;D. Oh and these amazingly huge strawberries I got from Tesco. They were so naturally sweet. And they are all gone now :D

5. Think of one fun thing that you could do this week without spending any money to do it.

Go for a walk and discover new routes! Or phone my mom - it's been a while since we have properly chatted :D

6. Share one place that you've been to and would like to visit again.

Tunisia. We went there on holiday in September - it was my moms pick and she wanted to try something new. I was a little apprehensive. Not sure if I'd go back while the protests politically and religiously are going on, even though Tunisia is a large place, I just wouldn't feel safe. Although the flight wasn't too bad, getting into the country was a nightmare! So, I've made it sound like I wouldn't go back, but one day in the future I would definitely try it again.

7. Do you prefer Facebook or Twitter?

I have both (personally), but on Twitter I only have an account so I can follow others, whereas on Facebook I am able to stay connected with friends and family.

8. What is your favourite vegetable? 

Hmm... not sure if I can name just one! Here's my top 5; Cauliflower, Sprouts, Potatoes, Cabbage and Sweetcorn. The two I tend to eat the most are Cauliflower and Sprouts because I throw them with a lot and add them to a lot of meals.

9. Share a goal that you have for the month of March.

I haven't actually considered any specific goals for March yet, though I've started making goals again every month to keep me working towards something . But I'll think about them and probably make a post Friday about them, also do a re-cap on February too. But I know a goal I really want to achieve is more exercise! I've been better this month, but I want next month to be even better :D

10. Share a quote that inspires you.

'It's not a bad life, just a bad day', this quote has kept me going over the last couple of weeks, and when you read or say it it puts things into perspective. I know I have woken up with a clean slate everyday or tried to. It's a good quote to remember through the tough times for sure!

Once again great questions, it really makes me look back and think.

Enjoy the week :D

It Doesn't Feel Like Monday

Thanks to Katie for hosting.

Why does it not feel like a Monday today? Where has my weekend gone? Maybe it's because I've been ill! I feel like I lost a few too many days last week. I hope that's not the case this week, although I am going to be a busy girl with appointments and deadlines for everyday of this week. Well I guess I'd rather be busy than bored. I need to stop procrastinating also, lately I can't help but drift. For some reason I do this every time I have a deadline.

This week I am going to need a lot to motivate and get me through the week. I think this week more than any other I am going to need my own space "ME" time! I haven't been getting enough lately and for me it has always been important after all I do enjoy my own company, I just need to get back to that.

Lately, I have been getting lost and caught up in my own thoughts - somewhere I shouldn't dwell too long.

Anyways, I want to stay positive and keep motivated - this week especially. I am definitely going to need it!

Here's my inspiration for the week:

Need work!

:-)

Reminder.

Keep calm & Study on... perfect for every student... especially around finals season!

True story.

pull yourself together

when life knocks you down...

So, there's a lot keeping me going this week - or more like holding me together. I'm just going through a stage or a time, whatever. I'll pull through I just hope it passes. Like soon!

My goals for this week (and there are a lot), are simple - I am going back to basics like Christina Aguilera.
  1.  Eat cleaner.
  2. Eat only when hungry.
  3. Be prepared e.g write lists.
  4. Go for walks.
  5. Prioritise me time!
  6. Focus on me.
  7. Get to bed on time and get up consistently at a good/same time.
  8. Get a solid 8 or more hours.
  9. Get better.
  10. Don't stress (it never helps the situation).
Happy Monday everyone. I hope your weekend was better than mine :D

Sunday 24 February 2013

Sunday Set-Up

This week is going to be busy because I have a deadline Wednesday that I am going to spend the next few days working towards! Which is why I need to plan...plan...plan, and remember to write lists of things to do everyday so I am able to stay on top of everything.

If I didn't plan this week nothing would get done. So, I am making a plan for all areas of my life in my planner. But on here I will share what my plan is fitness-wise. This is going to depend also on how sick I get, hopefully I have caught it just in time and exercise as long as I take it slow will be ok.

Last weeks re-cap:

Saturday - I got the work out done.
Sunday - We didn't go for a run, but we went for a long 40 minute walk.
Monday - Nothing got done.
Tuesday - We went Swimming! I haven't been swimming in years and definitely can't wait to go back.
Wednesday - Nothing.
Thursday - Nothing.
Friday - At work all day.

The fact that I only intentionally worked out 3/7 days makes me feel a little disappointed in myself. I hate making excuses that's how I become complacent, so I am going to spare you the Bulls**t and me the Bulls**t, and instead say I am going to try better next week. It's all out practice and frequency makes perfect (or there abouts). I think went I have those days I should try doing some free weights and then if I still don't feel good I can still say I tried and did something.

This weeks Plan:

Sunday - Go for a walk. Free weights - training arms, back and shoulders.
Monday - Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred.
Tuesday - Strength Training session. 20 mins total.
Wednesday - Jillian Michaels Dvd.
Thursday - Strength Training session. 20 mins total.
Friday - Jillian Michaels Dvd.
Saturday - Nothing. Or maybe Yoga on the evening after a long training day.

Weigh-In Update #2

I was pleasantly surprised when I stepped on the scales quickly this morning before heading out quite early for a Friday (for me anyways). It I was down another 1.25lbs. Score! because I honestly didn't think with what week it was I'd be down any, I had actually prepared myself mentally for a gain.

I use Livestrong and so at the beginning of the week I moved my calorie goal from - losing 1 lb to 1.5 lbs as I'd gone over repeatedly over the weekend, and that wasn't even including the alcohol I had drunk. (A lot of wine - so not the most diet friendly alcohol drink).

This week I am working towards ending February on a positive note, as my goal was to be under 147lbs and that means I have 0.25lbs to go! Need to make this goal. Can't wait to be under 147! I haven't decided what my goal for March will be yet. Hmm I have time to ponder it I guess. I'll return on Sunday with my goal. But I go home late March for a couple of weeks, and for some reason I feel slightly out of control when I am at home, or I should say less in control. Here at Uni I am in control of everything, especially food. And if I don't buy it, I don't eat it! Simple as. Now at home it's not practical to do that, because my mom has to buy items I normally wouldn't for my younger siblings. But I have to remember I am in control in all situations, and I am the one making the choices and decisions whether to eat something or not and it is the same with exercise. It's on me and only I can decide.

Well... this has turned into a way more in depth post than I started with. I just wanted to do my usual Friday weigh-In check in.

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.
And on that note... Enjoy your weekend everyone.

I am spending mine working and trying not to get sick!

Wednesday 20 February 2013

What I've been eating lately?

This week has been a funny week. I'm beginning to work out what foods sit well with me and what foods absolutely hate me! There's a few I am realising. It's all about trial and error at the moment.

Peas and Crayons
Thanks to Jenn for hosting. It's one of my favourite blogger link-ups, and I enjoy reading everyone else's posts too. 

Here goes:
I don't have much to share this week as I've had some of the same foods you see more than once or similar meals, and so I don't want to bore you with replicas.

Small banana with the best tasting strawberries I've had in a while + a dollop of Nutella.
I can't stop going on about these strawberries this week. They were so naturally sweet. I may have to go buy more. My friend who doesn't like strawberries admitted they looked good. I know she hates strawberries! I couldn't believe it when she told me, she says its the texture of the outside more than anything. Strawberries remind me of being at my nan's house as a child, having a bowl with sugar (like they needed sweetening!) and a tonne of whip cream.

Bran Flakes w/ chopped nuts and semi-skim milk. 
The other day I went shopping and I was looking for a cold cereal. Does everyone know what I mean by that or am I alone on a ship? Basically I put cereal into two categories; cold and hot. Cold being I have them with cold milk and hot being the opposite. I think I've been saying it like that as far back as I can remember. Anyways, I was shopping and saw this women buying bran flakes. Actually, she was struggling to get them down so I helped and it inspired me to go back to one of my favourite cereals. Much love for Bran Flakes. I love them with many toppings!
Southern Fried Chicken w/ Wholewheat Pasta and Salad. 
I love chicken, especially flavoured or spiced chicken. I realise it's not the healthiest but I fancied it last week and so got a four pack to freeze and eat when I craved thinking they'd last ages. :-( I have one left. Utter fail!
But they were so damn tasty.
Coffee! 
I've recently fell back in love with hot coffee. For ages I'd only drink Iced Lattes from Costa, but lately I have converted back. But I don't know if I am ready to commit because when I was drinking it last week I was getting headaches. Too much caffeine! But so tasty.
Snack before class: Cheese, cucumber and tomato toasty. 
When I have a busy day of classes these tosties are perfect to have on the go.

Toast w/ margarine and boiled eggs. 
Last week I kept differing between savoury breakfast options and sweet options depending on what took my fancy. Adding some form of protein to my breakfast definitely keeps me fuller for longer.
Pear, small Banana w/ Nutella. 
I've been loving my fruit plates on afternoons this week. The pears have been especially good.
Curry w/ Rice and Veg. 
It may be a strange combo but I love having veggies with my curries. My mom would probably give me a dirty look and look at me like a weird child, but I love it. This particular frozen, convenient meal wasn't that good and I won't be having it again.
Pasta and Bolognese w/ Cheese, Mushrooms, Red Onion and Veg (Cauli and Brocc).
I had this for lunch/dinner last night. Another frozen meal but with all my healthy extras it was so filling. Me and my best friend got back from swimming ( I am so out of shape, hadn't been in years! but will definitely be going back for more) and we were ravished, but I patiently waited and hardly grazed on anything other than a tomato and some cheese. I know random right?

Happy Wednesday :D I'm going to try and get even more veggies into my diet this week!

Friend Makin Mondays #2

This is my second time joining in with this blogger link up, but I love the questions and I enjoy considering my answers because at times I struggle to answer them and sometimes they are a breeze.

1. Does your blog have an overwhelming theme?

My blog is mainly about my battle with my weight and what I am doing currently to find balance and finally lose the weight and keep it off. But I also add in other aspects of my life and the things I am interested in like beauty and clothes etc.

2. How did you come up with the theme(s) for your blog? Was it intentional?

I started the blog for accountability to myself.

3. Share something cool that has happened in your life as a result of blogging.

My blog is fairly new. I began it last year when I was at an all time low, trying to find a way to come back from the pit I was digging myself in. But since taking it seriously and putting more effort into it, it's good not to feel alone in many ways especially talking to people who like the same things you do.

4. How much time do you spend reading blogs everyday?

The answer is probably too much. I am a big fan of peoples blogs who post everyday. I know that's not practical for many, but I enjoy shorter more frequent posts from bloggers than longer posts every now and again. But I have my usual blogs that I read saved in my favourites tab in order of who I know posts frequently etc. But I'd say time wise I spend an hour maybe longer if I have my laptop out. Sometimes, I just have to tell myself not to check today!

5. Do you blog on weekends?

If I have access I blog or if I have something that's on my mind and I want to write it down I blog. But I love blogger link ups the best, which are mainly at the beginning of the week. But I don't have a rule in place that says no blogging on weekends.

6. Do you keep track of your stats?  Do they matter to you?

Like I said it's a new blog and so this is all new for me, but I like knowing that people are reading what I write. But I like comments the best, sharing with people then them sharing something back.

7. How do you decide how much to share about your personal life?

Some things I like to stay private, just because that's the way I am in actual life. But the blogs about my struggles, especially with my weight, and so I try and be as honest as I can be and not beautify anything that's happening because that's not natural and that's not life. Plus that's what I like about the blogs I read the authenticity behind them that make them feel real.

8. Do you aspire to be a writer, or did blogging happen for some other reason?

Well, at the moment I am midway through my University degree, doing a joint in English Lit and Creative Writing and so I love to write anyways naturally. I also keep a journal which is the most personal thing I write. So, I am used to writing from one end of the spectrum to the other, both academically and personally. But like I said the decision to start a blog, kind of came from the idea of wanting to keep a public journal of sorts. Where people reading aren't close friends or family and so have a different outlook on your life. But I love writing and hope it will always be part of my life both professionally career wise and personally through my blog and journalling.

9. As a blogger, do you think it’s more important to write for yourself, or for your readers?

It's weird because although I blog, and it's my own thoughts and words you see on the screen, I don't yet feel like an actual blogger. I know it's crazy, but I don't feel as though I have the experience yet. It's like I love sport but I wouldn't call myself an athlete - maybe one day I'll be able to call myself both.

Ok, back from my spiralling tangent... I write for me at this point of time. Just to put my thoughts out there (down on paper so to speak). I'm a person that through writing I open up, rather than keeping it all to myself and overloading my brain with constant random thoughts until I blow emotionally. This way I get everything out and it allows me to move on and feel lighter emotionally.

10.What kind of plans do you have for the future of your blog?

Errm, this is a good question. I guess just to keep blogging and joining in with the blogger link-ups like I have been doing over the past month. Because like I've said when I'm writing I feel lighter emotionally and that benefits me in all areas of my life.

Wow. I really enjoyed answering these questions this week. I had the time to really ponder than answer the questions. It's amazing what you can do when you've got time.

Can't wait for next week. And can't wait to read everyone else's answers.

Enjoy your week guys!

New Week ... No Funk



Last week I've been in a pretty cra**y mood to say the least. People annoy me, Shows annoy me, Books annoy me. The only thing I've been happy with is classes (weird ay?). And I swear I am getting ill. Fever, nauseous,  the works. Anyways, no dwelling it's a new week and a new chance.

Today's going to be used to get better and relax, although I have a driving lesson at half one but that's all I have scheduled. I am hoping for it to be a good one. It's my third one and I am glad I made the decision to begin driving again.

This weekend was really low key and lazy if I am being honest. Friday we went into town and that was exhausting because of all the kids were off for half term. Thank god they are back this week (I hope). Saturday was busy as we made a trip into town again, got the entire house cleaned and I managed to get a workout in before the busyness began.

This weekend before getting sick, I was enjoying the wine my best friend brought back from her parents when she went home the other week. Both bottles of rose and white are now gone. What can I say we like to drink ;D

What do you prefer; Rose, White or Red?

I have to say over the last year I have decided I really like red, but my mom and friends don't. So, if I buy a bottle I have to drink the entire thing myself. Which though I am sure I could do :D I guess it's just nice to share a bottle with someone over a chat or a film.


.Red wine

Chilled White Wine?

I feel like lately there is always some Uni work that needs doing, not to mention I found out that we need to already be thinking about our dissertation question and possibly have chosen it by Easter. So, needless to say I'm getting slightly stressed about that! I'm sure it will all come together in the end, and I am having a chat with my head tutor this Wednesday to ask the questions that have been bothering me.

The sun has actually been shining every morning over here for the past few days which is lovely to open the curtains too. Unfortunately it still feels freezing and I need to layer up, but it makes me dream of summer. I know we still need to go through spring first, but I can't wait to feel that first bit of heat on my face. Hopefully, I wont have to wait long! But heres to dreaming right?

Quotes off Pinterest keeping me going this week:

Motivational Fitness Quotes





I need to read this every day






Motivational Fitness Quotes


And there we have it. I hope this week to make better choices about my food and exercise. I hope to stay on top of all my work. And finally I hope to be in a better mood whilst I am doing all of this :D

Have a great Monday!

Comparisons. Healthy or not?

Brittany over at gothextramile did a post about Comparisons, in particular comparing ourselves to others. I am guilty of this too and it happens often. I guess it's normal for us as humans to compare ourselves to each other all the time. I am not saying it's healthy, just normal. But this behaviour can be destructive, especially to your self-esteem.

I always try to treat myself how I treat others and how I want them to treat me. Sure I slip-up sometimes. But, who doesn't? These lessons are there to be learned from, and they are serious lessons in life.

You can either judge and compare yourself with others, or you can see yourself separate from everyone else. One person can't be compared to/with the next  We all come from different backgrounds, different places and it isn't fair to judge yourself using somebody else's template.

It's great that we are all different. We can learn from each other, and add to our own personality, rather than adapt ourselves to fit somebody else's image. That's a big part of why I decided to stop buying cheap, celeb gossip magazines. It wasn't healthy for me to even flick through them. Now if I am going to invest my money in magazines I buy Running or Fitness magazines. Magazines that I can learn healthy habits from, magazines that aren't going to put me down and make me feel inadequate.

Here are some reminders, some positive thoughts to remember today and beyond. It's good to refer back to them at times where you are feeling low.

Stop comparing yourself to others. You are the only one, there's not another you.













Weigh-In Update

This week has been rough emotionally to say the least. I got caught up in low moods and feeling sorry for myself. Well it's a new week and I get a new chance to try it all over again.

My Weight this week stabilised at 148.5, so no change from last week. I am glad I maintained and didn't gain after the amount of Nutella I consumed this week, not to mention double pancakes. 

I've also only worked out this week once, which seems like a waste as I'm still on Paris countdown. But I guess I should just use it as a lesson not a week wasted. This week I want to make up for it. I know I'm capable it's just getting around to doing it. I need a plan for my week starting today.

So, this is what I've come up with! To be changed according to my work and Uni schedule.


                
Sat 16/02 - Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred
               - 10 Minutes Strength Arms, Back and Shoulders (Before dvd).

Sun 17/02 - Run outside w/ My Best Friend.

Mon 18/02 - Jillian Michaels DvD (To be decided)
                  - Check out swimming at our local lesiure centre.

Tues 19/02 - 10 Minutes Strength Arms, Back, Shoulders.
                   - 10 Minutes Strength Legs, Butt, Calfs.
                   - 5 Minutes Abs Strength.

Weds 20/02 - Jillian Michaels DvD (To be decided).

Thurs 21/02 - Repeat Tuesday (Similar)
                    - Yoga.

It's just a template, but it is more likely to get done if I ink it in so to speak. Lately I've been so tired in general that I've had no motivation to anything but Uni work and vegetate. This is weird to say my sleeping pattern is just getting good again, not too much and not too little. Hope I have just jinxed it (cus you know I'm 5 and still believe in jinxes).

My goal for this week is to lose 1.5 lbs that would mean I would have already made my goal for February. Anyways, I am hoping to have a productive and relaxed weekend.

Enjoy your weekend :D I know I will!

P.S - I think I'm finally coming out of my funk. Thank you know what xoxo

What I've Been Eating Lately

I know it's veggie month, so I've tried hard this week to incorporate them into my meals. Not every meal, but I've definitely improved on last weeks veggie intake.

Thanks to Jenn for hosting the link up.

Peas and Crayons

I'm getting good at this whole remembering to take photos business. Not exactly good images, as it's easier and more convenient to snap pictures on my phone than my camera.

Here goes:



Chilli with lots of different veggies.

Breakfast Bagel with 2 Boiled Eggs.

Breakfast Biscuits with Greek Yoghurt.

Sautéed Veggies for Pasta.

Wholewheat Pasta.

Pasta Sauce.

Pasta, Veggies and Sauce.


American style pancakes with a banana and Nutella.

Snack: Cheese, Salad and Coleslaw.


Another Random Salad Bowl. Pork Steak, Salad, Spicy Mexican Rice and Coleslaw.

Biscuits smothered in Nutella and a Banana.

Veggies with leftover pasta sauce and pasta.


Pasta and Veggies.


Loving Banana's again.

2 Egg Omelette with Broccoli and Light Cheddar.

Omelette! Was tasty.




Rose Wine to go with our Pancakes!


Pancake day Pancakes with Nutella.




 I think I still need more Veggies and Fruit in general in my diet, but definitely not a bad start.

I had far too much Nutella this week. I never liked it all that much until Christmas. Now I'm addicted. So next week I will limit myself.

Have a happy Wednesday :D
