Lunch today is mini open sandwiches (whole grain crackers, sriracha, baby bell, avocado, turkey and lettuce), sweet chili baked crisps, pink lady apple and a homemade blueberry muffin. Treating myself to a cherry pepsi max too because I haven’t had one in aaaaages! I always feel so naughty having the pop. I know that even the ‘healthy’ ones aren’t healthy. Sometimes though, we need to allow ourselves a treat that isn’t a sabotage to our diets. Some of you may be frowning at that idea, but we all have our own coping mechanisms don’t we? Some people reward themselves with make up or clothes, a weekend away or a night out. I reward myself with a pop.
Now there isn’t a breakfast post as I haven’t really had a breakfast! It’s my last day off work today so I wanted to spend it being as lazy and relaxing as possible. I was up at 6:40 this morning to get the little one ready for nursery and to see her and my husband off. I grabbed a banana and a cappuccino before going back to bed. Being a working mum, I don’t often get time by myself let alone a whole house to myself. I took advantage and slept til 11 and lay in bed a further hour before dragging myself out for a shower. I plan on spending the rest of my day experimental baking and prepping food prepping for work tomorrow. Between my annual leave and being ill with my chest infection, I feel like I haven’t been to work in weeks! I suppose I haven’t really, I’ve only worked 2 1/2 days in the last 3 weeks! It will feel weird being back in the office and I have enjoyed all the time with my family, but I am looking forward to getting back into routine. I find it so much harder to eat healthy and drink water at home.
