DAY……………8?

September 20th, 2011 § 0 comments § permalink

So had to go to a funeral today for my hubs lovely Aunty. I had a headache before we even left, and after the 1.5 hour drive + crying my eyes out I was left with a thumping migraine which ended up in me throwing up outside a petrol station. Barely ate anything all day, some eggs, some nuts, a bit of chicken, that’s about it.

Won’t be having any more coffee for a long time, which is a shame because I love the taste but it has such a bad effect on me when I stop drinking it, which leads me to believe that it’s not great for me. I only ever get migraines when I don’t have coffee. I can avoid this by always drinking coffee of course……………….

No weight updates till tomorrow x

2.5kgs of water weight down! I kill for chocolate

Like the title says, stepped on the scales this morning and boom booooom! I fully know that most of it is water, but still, face bloat is gone so that’s all good. I need to get a weight graph on here with no numbers on as my weight is a life secret, even from hubby haha.

I’m loosely doing the Four Hour Body by Tim Ferris. Although I’m doing less carbs as he recommends beans with most meals and I know I just can’t do that and would prefer to eat more fat/protein. I’m doing cheat day 1x a week, Saturday, oh my life, I’m so looking forward to my mocha latte and chocolate croissant and grapes!! Hahah.

Rear Facing Car Seats – BeSafe Izi Combi x3

September 15th, 2011 § 0 comments § permalink

This was our first extended rear facing car seat, and is permanently in one of our cars until R outgrows it. It is a gorgeous seat, very plush and has tons of fancy features that really make this a luxury car seat – and as such comes with an accordingly high price tag. I think you can get this for around £260 if you shop around.

The main plus points for this seat are:
It is one of the highest scoring ERF out there. With excellent side impact protection as well.
I think the softest, comfiest, most solid rear facing seat money can buy.

Other great points
Has an amazing magnetic belt system, which keeps the straps out of the way so you don’t have to fish them out from under your baby when buckling him in.
Wonderful shoulder/headrest adjustment system. You just grip a bit on the back and pull up, which at the same time moves the shoulder strap height. Really easy.
Multiple reclining positions. This would be a huge plus in most other cars than ours. Our rear seats (7 series BMW) have a very steep angle on them which means that the most reclined position is barely reclined at all, and the most upright position is too upright. But a huge plus in other cars. You just lift a lever under the seat and adjust with your hand.

Negatives
It is huge and weighs a ton.
The first time we installed it was rather fiddly. I have since removed and installed it and it was much easier, although I’d be lying to say it is a piece of cake.
And yeah… once again it is pretty huge. I’m going to see if it fits in the middle soon but I think it probably wont due to how wide it is and how far back my husband needs his seat to drive.
It only rear faces to 18kgs. This is probably ample for some kids but my son is pretty huge and I can imagine we will have to retire this seat at some point unless we have another baby!

3 day loser

September 15th, 2011 § 0 comments § permalink

What an odd day.. I woke up this morning feeling mega iffy, shaky, feverish and so yuck. So yuck that Jon stayed home and worked from home. It’s pretty rare for me to feel really bad. I had huge problems sleeping last night too.

Reuben is hilarious right now he’s toddling around full speed with a cricket ball in one hand and a car in the other… anyway

I can only assume it’s my body adjusting to this new diet. I’ve had a great day diet wise although oddly I’ve felt kind of hungry all day even though I’ve eaten loads volume wise.

I ate 3 eggs for breakfast this morning. And spinach. 3 eggs sounds like a lot but I dunno it took me a while to eat I guess so didn’t seem too bad. I put the tiniest splash of cream in my coffee today which made me feel quite a lot more human.

What else did I do… Had tuna which was soooooo salty with my salad for lunch.

1 tsp pb snack with coffee

coconut chicken curry for dinner, which was sooo watery and dry chicken. haha. cooking fail. needs more work.

Anyway, I stepped on the scales this afternoon and saw a much lower number than I was expecting especially as it was the afternoon, I normally weigh in the morning and I’d been sittning on my butt all day.

Hopefully my mental fog will lift soon because I’ve literally been struggling to remember what I’m supposed to be doing for the rest of the week, and I’ve had no motivation to do any knitting which is odd because I’ve just been lazing around at home all day. Never ending blanket really is becoming never ending!
