A day off with TMM...

...and we did a good bit of walking. I suggested a run this morning. I hoped it would break me of my nervousness of getting out and about. He didn't fancy it however. He was up for a walk though, so we went along the coast for a bit and were out for over an hour. According to Runkeeper I earned about 400 cals for that.

A while later, we walked to a local shopping centre and back. That was over four kilometres round trip, and approximately another three hundred calories. All in all a good day of activity and now my legs are justifiably tired.

We ate at Costa while we were out. I hadn't had much this morning other than coffee and was feeling a bit nauseous after the exercise. I chose as sensibly as I could. It was definitely better to eat something, even if it wasn't going to be ultra healthy, than to continue feeling ill. My low fat flat bread and salted crisps came to less than five hundred cals. After a couple of tuna, mayo and sweetcorn wraps for tea, I used about two hundred and fifty extra calories today. Not bad considering I earned over seven hundred. I'm still five hundred cals in the green for the day. And feeling good.

With my coffee this morning, I had some dark chocolate and raspberry, which Mum got me from Lidl. It's been in the cupboard, taunting me, for s few days now. I hadn't enough cals any day since I got it, to try it. It's been driving me mad. So I had some for breakfast. Not sensible, I know, and the reason for my nausea later. But at least I practiced some restraint. I only ate half of it, not the whole bar.  So that's progress :-) But I didn't get it again. It's too nice and too hard to say no to.

I feel like my period is starting today, so hopefully it will be over before I step on the scales on Sunday.
