good day :)
Well lunch yesterday went well, Darryls mums birthday, we went to a place in Albany Village, its real scrummy and reasonably priced, the only prob we have with it, both times we have been, the service is s l o w, you wait for ages for your food, maybe thats a good thing, i drank a lot of water (and 1 OJ) in the time we were waiting, so when i got my meal (healthy choice, grilled salmon kebabs on Taboulli salad with yoghurt, mint and cucumber dressing on the side) it was a tiny portion, and i GAWKED at it for a bit, but it was enough... i did cave a bit at the start as we shared bread and hummus, but i dont think i did too badly.
then last night cooking dinner, i cooked Kaylee and Darryl potatos, and i didnt have any, i thought hey, no time but the present to do without! so i had more water, steamed carrots, brocolli and cauli, and a lovely piece of eye fillet steak. i wasnt hungry at the end of it either, which really surprised me, as i have always though that to be full, i will need to eat starchy carbs, i thought that is what they are there for... i guess by myself learning good habits now, i will be teaching my daughter right from the start. it is very important to me to have a healthy child. i was quite proud yesterday of my (well almost) completely healthy low fat day!
im having lunch a little later today, as Rochelle (Darryls sister) is bringing sushi (my fave) after Maias (my neice age 15 mths) swimming lesson, im watching Daniel (my Nephew age 3) while they are out, so i have had an apple, hopefully that will tide me over.
im wondering how many of you are not breakfast people? i know with any diet, breakfast is a huge must, i really dont do well with breakfast, it makes me feel very ill, how did you get into eating it? is it just a matter of routine and getting used to it? i would love to know
i am trying a new AVON moisteriser today, im going to go and wash it off, its so not me, i only used a little and my skin has gone all icky and oily, i think its made for more mature skin which dries easy. blah! back to my usual one i think!

Well done for the good choices yesterday - we all have to start somewhere !
As to breakfast - it is just a matter of getting into the habit of it - it is so important to give your body that kick start for the day. You should actually eat within 30 mins of waking up - that is something I don't do very well but I do have breakfast every day - even on the weekends when it is muffins on Saturday - that is my breakfast.
Take care and good luck !
Me
I never used to have breakfast BEFORE I started WW, but I can't go without now. It coincided with starting a new job, and since I had to get up earlier for the new job anyway I just allowed an extra 10 mins for Breakfast.
I don't like cereal or porridge, so I started of with marmite on toast every day, and gradually started to have WW cereal a few days a week. It took me about 3 months of having the WW Cereal before it started to taste like cardboard, and then I tried some of my cousins Special K one day, and have bought that ever since (still have a half finished box of leftover WW stuff in the cupboard, lol).
I now have Special K four days a week (Apple & Cinnamon - higher points but much nicer), marmite on toast twice and week, and poached eggs on toast once a week.
