I came in a little under RDI again yesterday and my breakfast this morning is slightly lower calorie than usual, which is fine because I'm out for the day today and planning to replace lunch with a slice of cheesecake and a good coffee.
I don't actually need a calorie deficit in order to be able to eat cheesecake, but I do feel better about it. Also, knowing I've been so careful all week makes me determined to have the cheesecake within RDI, to enjoy it and not allow it to open the door to bad choices.
I haven't planned an evening meal yet but if I'm hungry there's one serving of broccoli soup left in the fridge and I have plenty of salad veg, too.
There's plenty of walking planned for today, too, starting with the walk to school (40 minutes) as I have a couple hours work to do. Then walk back to the town centre (20 minutes) to get the bus for my day out. If it's not raining, there'll be another 1 hour walk from my friend's house to the old silk palace which is now full of little artisan shops, mostly silk, where I'm planning to look for gifts to take home for my family next week.
Just 5 more days of school before this seemingly interminable term ends. In 20 years here, I still haven't got used to the madness of having two 18-week semesters with no breaks in them except for the odd bank holiday or religious holiday. By week 12 the children and teachers are really tired, and it's very hard to keep up enthusiasm, especially as weeks 15 - 17 are usually packed with exams. The system in England of 12 week terms with half-term breaks means they rarely go to school for more than a six-week stretch and everybody is always fresh. Now exams are over and the marks for report cards are in, we will be babysitting this week as the children wait out their compulsory school days - understandably very few of them want to do any work. Even though we try to keep motivation high with lots of game based activities, drama and songs, even these aren't always enough in the last week.
