Icecream again...

oops...

...I've had two really bad days diet and sunbathing wise. We went shopping yesterday and bought 5 packets of icecream if I remember right plus 1 packet of chocolate bars. Yesterday I had 2 chocolate bars, 2 brownie mini icecream sticks and one stracciatella one and 3 sandwich icecreams.. Well at least I cooked; a whole chicken, rice and vegetables baked in the oven. And it was cloudy all day after 11. But at least I did 40 minutes on the exercise bike in the morning...before we went shopping.

Today I was going to start well, but before I even had time to defrost my breakfast ryebread, I had taken out a sandwich icecream.. I suppose I wouldn't even have to say that I had way too much icecrea..and I had the last chocolate bar too (Dave had one) and I also had some jelly with squirty cream. And as proper food, I had yesterday's chicken... And it was cloudy again..

Then when I got home I had two Wagon Wheels and a litre of some African tea. Then about one o'clock I had half a pizza. Then we went out and I bought some chocolate in Mercadona and also a tin of nestea. I drank that straight away. When we got home I had 3 bars of chocolate (like mars, just a cheaper version) and 2 ice creams. And half a litre of water. In the evening I had a litre of red tea, trying to get rid of the fat I've had today. And I had an apple too... Oh and when we came home, I also had some strawberries. Do I even have to mention that I've not had any exercise today... I'm going to bed now and I'm hoping to have a better day tomorrow...

Virus on the computer!

Today I was going to do lots of things; clean, go to the fruit shop, make some decos etc, but about mid day the computer screen just suddenly went black and then the computer restarted. I tried to open the virus program but it wouldn't open, the virus had made it unuseful. About six o'clock I finally got the virus out more than less and I installed a newer version of the virus program. It still warns about the virus, but at least it should be removed before it enters the computer. Here's the list:

Sunday...

Yesterday we went to pick up some more free furniture from Las Diamantes hotel as they are refurbishing so we are now refurbishing our house with their old but very good quality furniture :) The day was partly cloudy and everytime I was going to go out to sit in the sun, the sun dissappeared and it was cloudy even in Los Cristianos, it was sunnier here in Guargacho, which is really rare. Here's yesterday's list:

20.4.2008

07:50 0,5 ltr water
08:00 natural yoghurt with diced kiwi
09:30 cereals with milk and chocolate
09:45 40 minutes on exercise bike

I didn't take any pictures yesterday...

Working today...

Can't believe it! Twice this has got rid of my text now! Last try. So today I've been at work so I've not really done any sports apart from walking up and down stairs a bit and obviously no sun bathing either.

I didn't reealise yesterday how high my cholesterol actually is. In Spain cholesterol is measured in mg/dl and in Spain in mmol/l. The limit in Finland is 5mmol/l which is 90mg/dl. The limit in Spain is 200mg/dl which would be over 11 mmol/l. Mine was 227 which comes to 12,6mmol/l. So if I was in Finland I'd already been given a medication for my cholesterol for sure...if my calculations are correct of course. And my doctor just said, yes, it's slightly high, just eat less chocolate...ok!

Today's list

lazy day...

No sports today, no cooking either, I've just been making greeting cards and I also went to see my doctor to get my blood test results. Everything was normal but cholesterol as always. I really have to stop eating chocolate as it was LDL (the bad one) that was high. I wouldn't like to show today's list to my doctor...

And that's it, would you believe that!! That brownie really fills you up...maybe it would be healthy then..it's got yoghurt and wall nuts and everything... :D Today was actually quite a sunny day, and warm too, but as I said, I had a lazy day, so I didn't go outside too much. I cleaned the cat litter about mid day so stayed out for about 10 minutes while doing that and then 5ish I walked to the doctor's and back, it's max 5 minutes walk though. Now I'm going to iron my work clothes for tomorrow and then I'm off to bed!

PS. I don't always wear the same shirt...

Oops...

...I forgot to post yesterday so here's yesterday's list:

17.4.2008

07:00 0,3ltr water

20:30 brownie with cream...

21:30 0,5l water

21:30 cycling in the air and stomach muscle movements

There was no sign of the sun yesterday so obviously I didn't do any sunbathing and the sports part was only the cycling in the air and some stomach muscle movements (can't think of the name in English right now) on the bed while wathing telly as Dave was watching a DVD in the living room where my exercise bike is. Maybe better that way as it's good to do some different type of exercise every now and again, or at least that's what they said on telly yesterday. And then in the afternoon I had put the brownie ingredients in our chef o matic and I couldn't be bothered to cook anything else so...

Along with the text there's some photos I took at work when I was at work last.

Second day

Sorry, there's no photos today, I'm at work and as yesterday's photos were published with the day before's text... Yesterday I actually did a bit of sunbathing :) The builders were there again but I couldn't waste another perfect sunbathing day so I decided to go out to finish a bracelet I was making. I didn't put any suntan lotion on because I knew I wouldn't stay out that long. I was there about 15 minutes and in the evening when I had a shower, I noticed that I should have put some protection because my shoulders were slightly red. Not too red though, they aren't sore or anything. But next time I'll know to put on some protection, even f it's 8 or 10. I normally use SPF 25-30, sometimes even 40 when I sunbathe properly.

Here's yesterday's list:

15.4.2008

9:40 weight 60,2kg
10:00 cereals with milk

22:35 half a ltr of sleep tea

I will update today's list tonight and then more updates and maybe photos tomorrow :)

First day

Well yesterday I didn't add the picture as I promised nor even my first update. The reason is that on Saturday we got a new computer desk and I painted it then. It's a lot bigger than the shelf that we had the computer on before so we had to change all the furnitures around to make it fit in. In the end we ended up changing our front room totally, now it's like we had a living room and then also a dining/computer room. And the well started diet day got a bad end when we found the chocolate monopoly and scrabble that we had bought a couple of years ago for Christmas... And now yesterday's food/drink list:

14.4.2008

7:00 1 litre of water with vitamin c and calcium effervescent tablets
10:00 natural yoghurt with kiwi
10:15 1 l infulinea tea

21:00 spagetti bolognese out of a can and half a litre of water

And then about sunbathing; the day was really sunny, no clouds about at all, but there's a building being built just next to us and the builders were just painting on the level of our terrace so I didn't feel like going out in my bikini... Maybe I'll go in a bit. I'll tell you tonight. The photos that you can see were taken this morning.

Katja's tan &diet diary created :)

I'm going to start another goal diary, last year I had my diet diary at piparminttutee.livejournal.com (only in Finnish) and now I'm going to start again, this time both in English and Finnish (Finnish version). Last year I had 10 kilos to loose, this time it's only 2-3 kilos and then my goal is just to maintain that weight. The problem is that we'll go to Finland and England in June so I know I will eat just way too many sweets then so once we come back I suppose I should start this diet again. And then another goal for this spring would be to tan myself a bit. I don't want to be as white as all the other Finns, then no one would believe that I'm actually living in Tenerife (except maybe from my funny accent). So in the future I will write here about my eating habits, more than likely I will just list everything I eat, the exercise I get and also about the weather and other excuses why I haven't been able to sunbathe ;) And of course I will also add pictures about the result so I will start tomorrow (as I'm working today) by adding a fresh new picture of myself. 8.6. I should be as brown as a bean and as thin as a stick :D
