Thirsty Thursday

Posted in My Weight Loss Diary on 17th Sep, 2009

Had some semi good news today. Might be starting a job on Monday!! Have to sort out the details tomorrow but the prospect of having a reason to leave the house every day is very appealing! It’s not exactly a career job, just part-time reception work but it’s ideal for me because I’d be working afternoons. This means I can be more careful about what I have for lunch. Often if you’re busy working you can be caught unawares and  risk eating something calorific without even realising.

Did you know that a Mc Donald’s cheese burger and medium fries has 600 odd calories? This is less than there is in a ploughman’s cheese baguette that averages 700 odd calories? I’m not sure about the fat and salt content but that just goes to show YOU NEED TO READ THE LABEL WHEN EATING OUTSIDE OF YOUR HOME!

Jonny and I went out bowling this evening and then off for a couple of drinks in the city centre, it was really good to get out of the house for a bit as I’d got myself in a bit of a depressed state of intense boredom earlier on. I think seeing so few people every day is starting to have a bit of a negative effect. Jonny has been nagging me to get my arse into gear and join a netball team which I had planned to do when I moved up but a lack of a job equals a lack of funds that I can’t justify spending on socialising once I actually do meet people! I have looked at a lacrosse team and I’m hoping to contact them next week and see what the deal is with their team.
