Hi, excuse my lack of posting. This one is really just me checking in. Day-to-day life has been keeping me away but nothing else. Despite that I'm doing quite really well with my weight-loss at the moment. Completely back on track. I really couldn't call it a diet now because my food choices happen naturally and I don't feel that I'm constantly at war with myself. I'm also meeting the goal of a walking break rather than coffee breaks at work. More exciting than that, if you remember my complaints that the staff canteen is just awful, yellow/white stodge, even the salads, Well, as if just for me a raw food cafe has opened round the corner. Yep a raw food cafe, guys. Since I'm living out of boxes at the moment we're now on first name terms, it's my daily haunt and am having my main meal of the day here at the moment.. I am in a little bit of heaven, I love the food and because of their ethics I know I can trust that there will be absolutely nothing in their food I wouldn't otherwise eat. Plus I'm finding it quite satiating, as in I don't really need to eat much else in the evening or for breakfast. I'm not choosing to fast, just not really wanting to eat. I hadn't mentioned my weight for a while because it had moved back up a little to 13 stone 11 lb. Daily trips to the raw food cafe, and loving it, has brought my weight down in just a couple of weeks to 13 stone, and I think soon I may just hit my first goal, whoopee...
Exercise: I am submitting to the idea that I really do need to start some more formal exercise. Good intentions just to seem to be good enough because it doesn't happen. I need to make appointments to keep. It takes me a little while to research places and decide exactly what I will be taking up so in the meantime I am doing something every day called 'The Tibetan Rejuvenation Rites'. Yes, I think it was the name that caught my attention and there is a nice little story that goes with them, but it's basically a set of exercises to daily and I am managing to keep to this.
Food: It's all a bit extravagant but I'm finding it really awkward at home to do my own thing food wise, you may have picked up on this but since I moved out of my flat I'm bunking down at my parents. It was great for the first month or so but now while I got my life sorted but now I am getting a bit of cabin fever.
Home: Regarding the above living arrangements I have good news here too. I know it's not the best of times to be doing this but I am in the process of buying a new home. It's not in Devon it's actually in Brighton, would you believe. It seems wiser to stay with my job which is quite secure, plus my social life is growing here a little so I'm not sure I want to up sticks at the moment. I'll still have to travel a little but it's not like the ridiculous commute I was doing. I'm hoping to be in quite soon. It's a new build so completion may actually be as soon as the 10th October.
So just to update my ongoing blogging break my news is all good, and I'll keep updating in this style for the time being.
