Let Her Eat Cake!

Posted by: velveteen In: Exercise| General| Postive Mental Attitude| Thoughts

You know, this birthday has been totally low-key and I’m so down with that at the moment :)

You see, yesterday I planned exactly what I was going to eat.  I got up early this morning (no lie-in for the old chick here) and I prepared everything.  My goal points per day are 21.  My plan was 20.  My Love made me a small cappuccino this morning so I added a half a point for that.  I packed my things for the gym and I kicked some ass and earned 8 points.  8!  Oh, man did it feel good!

So, with half a point to spare and 8 extra points under my belt, I had a lovely little treat when I arrived home.  My love bought strawberries, eierkoeken (these a little bit like sponge cakes) and some chocolate sauce.  I just had the most divine little “cake” for 3 points. 3 points!  Bring it on!

Tomorrow is my weigh-in.  Today one of my colleagues asked me if I wanted to bring my sneaks tomorrow and go walking with her at lunch.  I already planned my food for the day while I was on the train home.  20 points.  Plus some AP’s.  Think I’m even slightly worried that the scale won’t go down?  No way!  I know for sure it will.

The past few weeks I have amazed myself.  There have only been maybe 2 days where I had more than my allotted/earned points.  It’s almost too easy.  I’m not going to dwell too much on that “easy” feeling,  because I don’t want to start to get slack in my efforts.

You see, I’m very serious about this.  So watch this space, because you will see less and less of me *winks*
