Off to school tomorrow!!

** UPDATE and a couple of photos **
Fynn's last day at Child care - of to school tomorrow! I think his mum is giving him a haircut tonight!!! He's a bit of a character and had formed a real bond with the head carer there who thanked Debbie this morning for sharing her son. She said there was another character coming up through the ranks - his cousin Casey.

No - I didn't have any cake!

I'm realising that I'm coping so much better taking the healither lifestyle changes all in my stride. OK I lashed out in the weekend, but now I know I have the ability to say to myself - stop right there! I can pick myself up again and get back on with it. It's a good feeling! It would be great to never have to worry about tracking points and just forget about them completely, but I haven't got the type of body that handle that! The big thing is there is no guilt in going over points, I'm not thinking of myself as "bad" rather just having a couple of cruisier days enjoying good times with friends and family and then knowing I can turn it around and be back on track. A few years ago those cruisier days would have just kept going on and on!! And they would have been a lot more over the top than now. Also days like this I'm finding I'm opting still for healthier food and most of the time this is genuinely what I want, in my past the choices would not have been not so healthy. I used to crave rubbish! If you keep at this your tastes do change. LOL not in every case though, I still can't resist a couple of chips if I get my hands on them! Cheeses, dips, wine..... but now in moderation.

Our grandson had his 7th birthday yesterday and his choice for dinner was McD's. I thought of just having a coffee and then eating when I got home but then decided to have the Deli roll. 5 points and one of the more healthier options. My daughter made the same choice. Too much info here - It tasted ok but within hours of eating it I was racing to the toilet. Bad tummy cramps, then diarrohea. I didn't put it down to the roll but found out this morning my daughter was exactly the same last night! I've said it before but I mean it this time - I'm not eating there again! I still feel a bit wobbly this morning.

Off now to child care, it is Fynn's last day and they are having a birthday morning tea for him. We are a bit partied out this week. The next little one is a school boy tomorrow!

I went to McD's last night also but had the much better choice of a boss burger......wonder why I'm putting on weight...hahaha.

Sorry to hear you were sick, I've only tried the deli rolls once and didn't like them at all.
