I got up this morning and had my porridge, made a bottle of water, then headed off to Harrogate District Hospital. I thought allowing 1/2 hour to get there and get parked would be plenty, but it just shows how wrong I can be...
I am the eternal pessimist! I didn't have high hopes for this appointment, but I was pleasantly surprised. I was surprised to find out the dietician was an American woman! There were 5 other women, three of whom I didn't think were over-weight, 1 was borderline and 1 was over weight. I think the movie Bridget Jones' Diary has a lot to answer for! Hollywood is not going to convince me that a size 14 is fat! No wonder women have such poor self-esteem and poor body images. The group was a one-off thing; Harrogate NHS has no weight management program.
I didn't pay a lot of attention to what I ate for the rest of the day :-( I had a yogurt and some raspberries, but they were pretty tasteless, so I didn't have many. Maybe I'll try strawberries for awhile... I had a bit of cheese and some imitation crab. I was going to have some salmon, but I didn't feel like cooking. I'll put that in the freezer for next week. I'm going to make cumin-rubbed chicken for my dinners on my graves.
I'm going to watch a bit more TV, finish the last of my 3 liters of water, stretch, read a bit and go to bed. I have to get up at 6 am tomorrow, so I need my sleep :-)
