It's been a long, busy, tiring day today, but it's officially done and dusted so I can relax after my groceries have been delivered and put away and I've put in my next order.
I've gotta remember to refill my squash bottle tomorrow and put today's deliveries away after I've read all the instructions, but they are both jobs for tomorrow and I'm going to bed now.
I'll see you all in the morning.
Nite nite orl
...my first OddBox delivery being absolutely crammed with fruit which made it even better value for money.
I'm also grateful that I've been able to have 6 portions of fruit and veg today and that it's so easy to get more to please my sweet tooth.
I'm grateful that I've ordered the fruit bowl that's coming tomorrow.
I'm grateful that I've finally joined the thousands who have got an Alexa device as of about 15 minutes ago.
I'm grateful that I was able to eat healthily and only snack unhealthily (on chocolate raisins) once which is a huge achievement for me.
And finally, I'm grateful that I've been able to do my exercises and stay on my feet for so much of the day.
I'd literally just come out of the bathroom and literally just as my bum landed on the sofa, my deliveries arrived.
That had to be Loki! lol
Maybe I've been neglecting Him lately?
My body has got no idea what's going on 'cos I've had 6 portions of fruit and veg so far today and I only usually get that in a month! lol
Today's lunch was approx 125g of chestnut mushrooms, approx 10g of Vegan Mayo, washed down with a 330ml can of a Sparkling Mango pop.
My first OddBox was delivered overnight and I devoured several small pears for a mid-morning snack and the mushrooms for lunch has really perked me up, so I obviously just needed more fresh fruit and veg in my diet. It'll be so much easier now that I've got a fridge full of fresh fruit, 8 apples and 6 bananas on the side.
Lunch will be the same tomorrow, but here's today's lunch photo:
...today and tomorrow are gonna be very healthy food-wise because I've already put my breakfast, drinking chocolate and lunch into my FitBit app so that I don't forget and I've still got over 1,000 calories left to play with today!
I've also unofficially weighed myself for the second time today and I've lost 550g since I had my breakfast too! Just got 800g to lose before I'm back down to the weight that the nurse wants to be and I've taken all the chocolate bars and crisps off tomorrow's grocery order and put nuts on instead. I was 1.35kg over where the nurse wants my weight to be but after this morning's laps, sit-ups and crunches, I'm only 800g over so I'm pretty proud of that.
If my first OddBox delivery is already doing this to me 5 hours after getting it, then I've got high hopes for the future!
I was also wrong about them being weekly boxes - they are fortnightly which is a lot better considering how full my fridge is now!
It's 125g of chestnut mushrooms and vegan mayo for lunch today and tomorrow, then I'll see how I feel starting on Wednesday - I've got hash browns and the other vegan melt if I'm hungry or plenty of fruit if I'm not.
I'm not gonna turn into a crazy health-nut, but I wanna get my weight down to where the nurse wants it to be and keep my heart healthy with the exercises too... I'm hoping that I can get rid of my belly and thighs in the process too.
...happy with my first ever OddBox delivery!
I've got a fridge full of fruit and mushrooms so I've got no excuse not to get my five-a-day into me this week!
There were about 60-70 individual bits as well as two packages of blueberries and a bag of mushrooms, so I'm not including those.
I'll be having air-fried chestnut mushrooms for my lunch today and tomorrow and snacking on fruit whenever my mouth feels lonely.
I've taken off the fruit pots and mushrooms from tomorrow's grocery order 'cos there just isn't room in the fridge any more.
I'm really impressed by the amount of fruit that was in the box and it's incredible value for money for under £15 as it was my first order!
I'm more than happy to keep on with the subscription now that I've had my first box from them... I need a bigger fridge though! lol
