Oh boy am I tired. I've not been sleeping well for the past fortnight and it is finally catching up to me it would seem. I've said before how I'm not a good sleeper and because of that I'm almost used to it. But now I don't have the luxury of being able to sleep in when I want to (like at uni) and actually have real life responsibilities (like at work) it tends to hit me in the face every so often.
Hey ho though, my 'weekend' is soon and I should be able to catch it up a little. Today has been a bog standard day again. I found a recipe on youtube by Nigella (have an epic girl crush on that woman. She is so beautiful) for a sweetcorn chowder. Nothing too hard, dairy free and it looked delicious so I figured I'd give it a shot today. I managed to screw up a pretty simple recipe in two ways. Not dissolving my vegetable stock cubes before adding them, resulting in a gloopy ball of brown gunk floating about in there till I dealt with it. And also I blended the sweetcorn too much. I'm planning on giving it a round two go come Thursday when I have the time to play about again.
Still, I had a big bowl of that with some bread, and too many nachos. She adds melted cheese nachos to hers but I figured I'd forgo the cheese. But the soup took so long I was nibbling at the bag and went over the calorie allowance a bit I reckon. I managed to get breakfast this morning of toast, clementine and a yoghurt drink so all in all it's not been too bad so far I guess. I've done my 40 minutes and 60 reps so I'm on track with that. I haven't had tea yet but I'm planning tomatoes on toast with a TON of mushrooms. I love mushrooms. I'm such a hobbit (aside from the hairy feet).
So there's still time for some calorie reconciliation. I hardcore want ice cream and malteasers so hopefully I can fit it into my calorie allowance. If not then I'll save it for Wednesday. I've decided Wednesday will be my cheat day/no exercise day (besides walking the hounds). It used to be Sunday but because of the way the festive period had fallen, it's screwed the routine somewhat. No biggie though. It falls on my 'weekend' so I'm going to eat all the cheese and biscuits ever for dinner!
Right anyway, my stomach is a growling so I'm going to go have a quick shower and then go dry fry some mushrooms.
So for now, good boo.
