I boast about how wonderfully I’m sleeping and today I wake up and get up at 3.30am. Thanks to my darling husband who is kicking around in bed! I actually woke with a bit of a cough so rang the swine flu hotline – all I got was crackling. LOL!! Damo told me that one, thought it was quite good. I did though wake up with a cough! Bugger.
Can you believe I bought an IPOD about 6 weeks ago, and still haven’t used it. I mean, still haven’t downloaded any songs so I CAN use it? Must get on to that, of course I think about it every time I go to the gym for cardio – which I admit is rather rarely these days which explains the 6 week time frame I suppose!
Gee I manage to buggerize around and waste some time here. At the moment I am resizing some more comp photos I found on my camera. Reason I’m looking at that is that I thought I would start taking some pics of my food – excitement plus for you – but some people are interested in what I eat on a regular basis, so at the top of this post you can see my lunch yesterday! BBQ chicken (and yes that is a bit of skin you can see, everything in moderation when not dieting is a good mantra), avocado, pesto and a veggie mix of green beans, spinach, corn and peas. I use Barilla Pesto, very yummy, and a tsp goes a long way. You can probably also see how much sea salt I put on too if you look closely. Big chunky bits.
Anyway, it’s now 5.16am and my tummy is rumbling so think I will trot downstairs and make some breaky, my favourite meal of the day, though sometimes I also have my breaky meal for dinner!
Today I have to get busy again and write my article for Oxygen mag – speaking of did you see the last issue – thought it was great from the new publishers.
Thanks again for comments on my photos, I still have a few left but thought I better give it a rest for the moment!
Hey Sue,
I have found I seem to maintain around 1600-1700 (BTW: I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism)
Happy eating in that range,don’t feel hungry or deprived.
Well, recently have been dealing with a nutritionist and she says this is way to low for me.
She feels I should be eating more along the lines of 2200-2500 (especially at 28 years old). She believes I might have what is called a Compromised Metabolism.
Have you ever heard of this??
Kind of concerns me…
Maybe I screwed up my metabolism when I went from 176lbs to 128??
What are your thoughts??
BTW:I’m petite framed.
That does look really tasty!
Yummo! looks fabulous – as do your recent pictures. Total hotness – plus the perfect advertisement for the good work that IBO does!
I have been slack in keeping up with the comments, but have been keeping up with your posts. Glad to hear that things are slowly returning to something resembling normal. Been thinking of you
Your meal looks delicous Sue and thanks heaps for sharing!!! Love to see some meal 2 and 4!!!!( we all struggle those ones!! ) plus breakie ones too!!!
