Ahh I love those banana pancakes - used to make them all the time but add cinnamon or vanilla. mmm, love them. Are you a social worker then, Cali? Me too! Have a fab weekend xx
Yes Sun...working mostly on administrative/International SW consulting now, but if I get transferred to AUS I might get back to working with children and families again. How about you?? It's a tough field...I definitely feel our job is not valued enough (and I'm not even just talking about $$$). = (
There is no "easy" route to success dear.....I believe one needs to work hard for it, and sometimes even when doing that things don't necessarily come out as you wish, that being said...when it comes to health and fitness, there is a fine line and a clear path...you eat well, nutritious meals...you learn that food is just a resource to fuel your body and that your body will reflect that which you feed........and FITNESS WISE, that is very particular to each individual......my goal is not short-term, if I am relatively active and healthy at 50-60-70years old, then that means that I have done something right today!!
Weight Today: 57.3kg
Food Intake:
2 GF toasts with DF cream cheese
1 DF yogurt with tbs of nuts and coconut mix
Shrimp and Pasta dish: 1 cup of pasta + 10 shrimps, with cherry tomatoes, oregano, olive oil, onion, garlic, Mediterranean dressing, DF mozzarella cheese
1 Good Soy herbs snack (DF/GF)
1 egg
1 1/2 tbs of peanut butter
4 strawberries
1 1/2 slice of pineapple
Exercise:
3x20 reg. squats
3x8 superman leg circles (each leg)
50 calf-raises
60 squat pulses
50 mountain climbers
NOTES: Today has not been the best of the days f0r me..........I am usually a VERY POSITIVE person, case in point any person who would get the not so nice news (very discouraging) I got today would totally throw themselves a pity party and complain for at least a night before putting the pieces together and start brainstorming possible solutions/alternatives to the problem I am having. As you all know, I don't like venting my personal stuff here...I have my reasons, but I feel like I need to get it off my chest that today wasn't a good day for me. PERIOD...the worst part is that I am - AFTER WHAT SEEMS LIKE A VERY LONG TIME - actually holding myself accountable for being 50% of the problem.....and no, BEFORE Y'ALL GET YOUR BRAINS THINKING THAT THESE ARE RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS, IT'S NOT...........IT'S A WHOLE LIFE PROBLEM!!! Part of me is happy that I recognize my fault in it today (hey, that's a start!) and the other part of me is SO INCREDIBLY DISAPPOINTED IN MYSELF
I never felt like I wanted to go back a few years in life, I always thought "damn, I'm an intelligent/good hearted/well-rounded woman who loves herself and life" and that's a pretty good feeling to have by the time you are 30. Today I felt like going back the last 5 years of my life and wishing I could make better choices, choices that are now irreversible, choices that I'm going to have to live with it and learn to MOVE ON from it! It's a VERY HARD pill to swallow and I must confess that I never thought I would get this feeling........but now I have, I realize that I have to become a BETTER PERSON from it. In times like these, I always turn to my faith...the source of all my strength, of all that I am and believe. I don't know how long I will keep this diary (which for myself is an incredible resource of reliability to healthy eating+fitness)...but I hope that by writing this personal vow, I can also hold myself accountable to do BETTER in other aspects of my life. When I was a little, I had SO MANY DREAMS...so many of these dreams are still there inside of me, and while for the most part I have no control of many of these dreams...I can do my part, I can nourish and treat my dreams better by closing the gap between them and WHAT MAKES ME A BETTER/COMPLETE PERSON...dreams won't happen just because I want them to happen and/or bc I feel I deserve them to happen...to me dreams will happen when/if He thinks I'm deserving of it and to how hard I work towards holding my end of the bargain. I need TO GIVE MY ALL, MY 100% EVERY DAY...in order to never feel like I have felt today ever again, it's OK if things don't go as planned, but to me it's NOT OK knowing that I haven't given my best when I am perfectly capable of doing so. I know this much - I've always known this - and I need to put my knowledge/my determination/my desires to BETTER USE!!
For now, this is it...let's hope for better days! We need it...we all do!!

Def agree! I'm in children (care leavers) at the mo and going to child protection in January. I work mostly with asylum seekers from Syria at present - I live in a Port so we get lots on the boats.
It's good to vent sometimes - I hope tomorrow is better for you. Think those moments of reflection are important but so is looking at how far you've come too xx

NOTES: OK, so my training was a bit pathetic today...figure it out the source of my mess, I removed my IUD a little over a month ago and low&behold had my 1st ACTUAL period in 10years today!! Well, the reason I used an IUD so early on was because I actually suffer from high flux (have a bit of hemorrhagic case = / TMI - stop reading cause this is disgusting to me as well)...I don't know whether to be happy or sad, on the bright side "at least it happened before my Bday trip" and let's hope it will be done by then) - on the down side "I just have a lot going on pre-travel to have this happen to me NOW and I can't really afford to be at home in bed because I seriously can't do much in my current feminine condition (Yes, it is THAT BAD!!) - I'm going to try to push through it, I'm trying to keep it positive...this time next week I'm on an Island with a drink in one hand and a lobster on the other! Lol, I will keep that in mind!

NOTES: Had internet issues yesterday so I couldn't report.......doing better with period, doing worst with handling pre-travels prep/stress. I very much dislike all that it takes to prepare to go on vacation... 3 VERY busy days ahead before my trip on Sunday. I also want to take a moment to say that while I am proud of myself and all the work/effort I have put into my fitness and eating habits for these past 2months (since coming back on the forum/writing on this diary + back to such habits after my father's passing)....I want to recognize that I'm nowhere near where I thought I should be with 2 nearly perfect months of focus in this aspect of my life.
I won't say "it's frustrating", bc I do see this as a lifetime journey...but on the other hand I will say this "AGING and STRESS SUCK BIG TIME FOR A PERSON'S METABOLISM". I will give myself credit bc two months ago I was so out of breath doing so little, and today I had a nearly 18hrs day non-stop and still found the strength to come here and report. Lol, LET'S DO THIS PEOPLE!!! Bday Trip Countdown, Wohooooooooooo

Lol, LET'S DO THIS PEOPLE!!! Bday Trip Countdown, WohoooooooooooWeight Today: can you guess?!? hahaha...sometimes I think scales are addicted to certain numbers, which is why you should just do your thing and not mind them much! I am in a between stage where certain parts of my body are SUPER TONED and definitely show the work, while others are giggly acting like I have been paying no attention to it at all (which is SO NOT THE CASE)...I would be happy with any number on the scale as long as my body operates in unison, but I have my doubts if that's even possible for me (I'm just a classic pear shape)
Food Intake:
4 DF/GF/WF Crackers
1 teaspoon of Ghee butter
1 cup of papaya

1/2 banana
1 tbs of peanut butter
1 Good Soy DF/GF Snack
Exercise:
40min. of Pilates
40min. of core/upper body training with PT
4km on treadmill
NOTES: That feeling when you hit the bed and feel like all your problems can be solved if you stay put for the next 6hours! That's all I need.......another VERY busy day. Day 1 of 2 for vegetarian this week - will probably do day 2 tomorrow, though I'm thinking that I won't follow through my 2days during my Bday trip next week, so I might just follow with a 3 vegetarian days this week to compensate a bit...we shall see.

Exercise:
50min. of Functional Training with PT
1:30hrs on stationary bike (light effort - reading a book) ;-)
NOTES: One of the best gifts a person can possess is the ability to see beauty/light even when things are "grey". I am so thankful and proud to call myself a POSITIVE person...I feel SO BLESSED for all that I do have and I try to always focus on that instead of having an uphill battle complaining about the things I don't have. You can't predict where life will take you...all you can do is work hard and give your best shot EVERY DAY so that the path you choose will hopefully lead to good outcomes in the future.

It´s been awhile here...A LONG WHILE, will probably create a new diary because I need to improve my health and this diary is partially one of the reasons why I was so healthy between 2015-2017. Today after stepping in on the scales (first time since the Holidays which never gives you positive results), I was shocked to see 64kg/141lbs YES, YES...I know its probably water retention, bloating from eating all the sweets, etc etc etc ...BUT it is over 3kg increase pre-Holidays (I was 60.3kg/133lb Xmas Eve) and we are 10 days into New Years and there´s still leftover sweets around the house...My belly aches terribly, my self control is basically managing not eating 10 sweets/day, but only 3-4/day...food wise (APART FROM SWEETS) its been a balance...for the most part I am eating my usual gluten/dairy free but with no portion control. Exercise/fitness is not too bad either...100 squats a day and lots of interval training jogging (between 5-10km at least 5 days a week)...so yeah, it could be worse. I just want to not feel lethargic, its a combination of LOTS of eating over the last 2 weeks, as well as eating out of my usual routine (times of meals - as you know I usually eat from 10am to 6pm during weekdays). My digestion has been TERRIBLE this past week, and its affecting my sleep...I had late dinners (19:00 to 21:30) and because of my stomach problems, by midnight I was STILL digesting and feeling EXTREMELY full...can´t sleep till past 2 am, waking up multiple times...it´s awful, the days have not been good. Anyways, enough with the rambling...I will create a new diary, new goals, catch you up on my new life (I´m living in England now) and lets hope for the BEST 2020...a healthy one for all of us!! Cheers, everyone!
