Day 7

I just discovered the camera on my phone has a ‘food mode’ – somehow it worked out that it was pointing at food and asked me if I’d like to use ‘food mode’. Food mode appears to create a little circle within which the plate can be framed, and everything outside of that circle is blurred – but not much. OK then… here’s what I ate at 4pm today, this being the first thing I ate today (and I’m imagining Wilma frowning now). Hold on, the food is a bit blurred too. Now I’m frowning at ‘food mode’.

Now let’s talk about this lovely Gloji recipe book I’ve been given (as a PDF). The recipe book starts off with a load of majorly sensible advice about eating healthily, about hunger, about not doing restrictive dieting, about types of hunger and the hunger scale…all fantastic stuff! And then it has recipes. I’ll likely be using the guidelines it gives and trying some of the recipes but I’d rather invent my own recipes and use the Gloji guidelines to make them more healthy.
I just read I’m meant to be keeping a food diary for 3 days and I’ve got to say what I ate, when I ate it, and how I felt before and afterwards. Oops not started that yet – I’ll do it some time this week.

I think I’d work better with this Gloji book if I had a hard copy so I’m going to try to arrange myself one – via the local printer if I have to.

Also there are some things I identified I’d like to have as resources to help me eat healthily and to move more, so I’m going to try to build those.
