It's Friday!

Had a few hiccups earlier in the week, but today I'm determined to give myself the treatment I deserve! I'm proud of myself because I've been drinking much more water this week - at least 1 litre every day. Haven't noticed much effect yet, aside from feeling bloated a lot of the time. Also, having to visit the ladies' room much more often during the day, and also about 1/2 hour before I'm due to get up in the morning. Very frustrating! I made sure to drink all the water during the day and not at night so I wouldn't have that problem, but I'm having it anyway.

This week I've eaten the same thing every day. I don't actually mind that. It helps with planning, and it takes me 4-5 days to get sick of eating the same thing, which fits in well with the working week. This week my food diary has been:
before work - half an Up & Go squeeze box.
breakfast - multigrain oat porridge with fruit. two coffees.
morning tea - dip with celery sticks.
lunch - noodle salad.
afternoon tea - milo, trail mix.
dinner - various things, pasta with salami and veges a few times.
dessert - banana with custard. tea if the weather's not too hot.
I usually get cravings for chocolate after lunch, (the more stressed I am, the stronger they are) but the last few months I've gotten into the habit of having the milo instead. I gradually added less milk until now I have it with water only.
Now I only have my after-work cravings to deal with! Might leave a discussion of that to another time.

Meanwhile ...

I've always been a lover of bath and beauty products, and I've developed a sudden interest (obsession?) with BB creams. They've been big in Asia for a while, and I've recently discovered that one can get them online! (Cue dastardly cackles.) Now I just have to decide which one I'll get first. I could go on and on about them and the process of choosing one, but this blog is boring enough already. If I was going to write a beauty product blog, I reckon I would have to get used to my photo being taken!

I'm going to a big wedding tomorrow and I need to prepare! Tonight I have to dye my hair; and tomorrow paint my nails, finish altering my outfit. Decide what makeup to wear. A few months ago I bought cheap makeup as a 'treat' for myself and I won't be doing that again. It's crap! If I'm gonna get myself a treat, then I'm going to get something decent because I'm worth it! Back to beauty products again. I've got a one-track mind at the moment...........
