OK, I have finally made peace with the fact that I have to get a whole lot stricter with the diet. I'm going to do some homework on the nitty gritty of nutrition and make a list of good foods, OK foods and foods to avoid as much as possible. I am going to have to put more effort into drinking a minimum of 2 litres of water a day, no cordial added. This will be a challenge, but I will have to force myself, I need to do it. Alcohol is officially off limits except for Sunday, DD's birthday, and I will limit it to one drink. My biggest food crime at the moment is portion size, I have to immediately cut it right down. Living with a big eater has influenced me eating much larger portions than I should. I am really hoping that these measures will start to see genuine weight loss.
Swimming was fun yesterday. DS still won't jump in the pool by himself. No worries, will keep working on that. DD was not impressed initially but she was fine after a few minutes and even enjoyed it. Next time we go I am going to swim laps while DH looks after the kids in the learner pool. I am a bad swimmer but the point is that it uses alot of energy and is low impact so it is good exercise no matter how bad my technique is.
