Hmmm...It could be worse.

So I've been feeling very depressed this week. This is because I had a terrible weekend spent fighting with my boyfriend. It really got me down and it seems I still haven't recovered.. Luckily I've still stuck to my workout regime and my meal plan. 

I'm the kind of person that stops eating when I'm depressed, which I guess is better then reaching for chips and chocolate. I just keep telling myself that things could be worse. There are people who are living with unimaginable problems and thinking of them reminds me that my own problems are relatively minor. I think it is important that we remind our selves of this. 

My motto is "It could be worse". I think this can be applied to everything and I often repeat it to myself. It seems to help to get me through. I know things will get better eventually....

Anyway onto a lighter note, I am working everyday this week as I'm on uni holidays, so I may be able to pick up my lay-by next week! I can't wait. The strawberry and balsamic desert was delicious tonight.

I wasn't too keen on the pork meal, but that was due to my lack of planning. I didn't realise I had to marinate the pork for 1 hour, so when I went to cook it and found out, I was starving and couldn't wait. I also could not wait for the pumpkin to roast, so i just boiled and mashed it instead. The lasagna was nice, but it left me feeling very hungry. Actually I've been really hungry this week. Hoping it will pass and my stomach will hurry up and shrink, so these tiny amounts of food will fill me up!

Pork, pumpkin, peas and beans.                                                    Lasagne with rocket and ricotta

I usually do my workout at 6am. I have everyday since the start, but for the next 2 days I'm starting work at 6.30am. This means I finish at 2.30pm, so I'll have to do my workout then. I hope I still have enough strength to do an afternoon workout after spending all day changing nappies! 

Looking forward to brekky tomorrow morning. Bircher muesli was another meal I didn't realise I had to soak overnight, so I had to switch that for the apple toast. Bircher muesli was quite nice , but the raisin toast with apple and ricotta was delish!

Can't wait til I see my boyfriend on the weekend, so I can find out if we're ok and then I can (hopefully) stop stressing all day!!!!
