Nikina70's Journal, 12 Feb 21

My first week back at tracking has not gone completely to plan as we had some good news on Wednesday. My UK Spouse Visa was approved so celebrations ensued including sharing a slice of lemon meringue at Mugg & Bean and quite a bit of wine that evening. The day was way over in calories, but such is life...

Still so much uncertainly right now, but it is at least a step forward on a journey that started over two years ago already. It's tough being slightly in limbo, but things should have progressed quite a bit in the next 3 months so I'm just hoping to take it all in my stride and not get too stressed about things.

I am trying to reel my calories back in for the rest of the week and still stick to my planned 1850 daily average, but I'm not sure I'll make it. As it will probably be over this week I think I'll try to do it properly next week and see what happens before adjusting again. Either way I think this 2kg increase is not too bad since I weighed a kilo more last week, when I didn't record, so that's fine.

This week I was aiming for 180 minutes of exercise and did a total of 130min YouTube dumbbell workouts and 60min walking/cardio workouts so I'm happy with the 190min total. Will try to keep that going.

Have a great weekend everyone!
