Soup (any variety) and a turkey drumstick. That's what I'm going to turn into. Oh, and a bottle of diet cola. These are the staple foods of my diet these days. Barring diet cola not being healthy at all, and my soups being a bit high in sodium, it's an okay way to eat. There's plenty of variety in soup. I'm still eating a lot less fruit, as it's relatively high in cals and doesn't really make me feel full. By way of a change though, I had strawberries for breakfast today. Unfortunately they were a waste of calorie allowance. They were pretty tasteless. Not that sweet or juicy.
I forgot to mention the amazing thing that happened yesterday. Well, amazing for me. Quite unexciting to anyone eles. I can't believe I forgot about it. I tried on one of TMM's coats and it fit me. Sorta! It looked okay, but wouldn't zip up over my belly. But I don't care. It fit across the back, in the shoulders and the arms. I was able to wear it when we went out, and it looked good. TMM says I can borrow it whenever I want. I think I'm going to wear it to work tomorrow. I love how it looks.
Another thing I can't believe. This day last year I ran the Belfast marathon. I trained for, and completed, a twenty-six point two mile run. I was slow, but I finished. I couldn't tell you what weight I was when I did it, but I'd say about two stone lighter than I am now. It took me nearly six and a half hours. I would love to enter again next year, much lighter and fitter, and do it in under five. It's totally possible. A whole year to get back into running in a big way. I can do it.
