Chinatown and celebrations

Second day of Fitbruary wasn't so great on the diet (when I say diet, I mean it in the original sense of the word, not a weight loss thing) front as I didn't really get a chance to eat all day. Started off with porridge and granary toast though so had a good base.
The reason the diet wasn't good though, was because I took my daughters to see the Chinese New Year celebrations in Chinatown in Liverpool town centre. We saw the lions and the dragons and heard the firecrackers, there were a LOT of firecrackers. Saw some old people do some tai chi (which cost me £2 to get into the place that they were doing it, and that was all that was in there, bloody fleeced I was!) and youngest rode on a train that went round in a circle for about three minutes (also £2, but she was happy so hey ho). We then headed to the museum and I basically spent the next 2 hours being bored to death, but again, the kids enjoyed it and that was the main thing. It was nice to spend some time with them, just us, not at home. It doesn't seem to happen all that often as they split their time between different parts of the family so it was a nice kind of bored.
I'm also putting day 2 of Fitbruary down as a success. Tomorrow will be gym time, possible bike ride and fabric hunting. I have a few ideas of things that I want to make so I want to crack on with those whilst the creative bug is biting.
Plan.

February = Fitbruary

• Bust - 37 inches
• Waist - 33 inches
• Belly button - 37.5
• Hips - 39 inches
• Thigh - 24 inches
• Arm - 12 inches
• Neck - 13.5 inches

Guess who's back making promises to change their lifestyle again? :/

I know, I know, you've heard it all before. So have I! But at least I still haven't given up. I've made a promise to myself to try my absolute hardest to be as healthy as I possibly can for the month of February. Four weeks of making healthier choices, all through my life not just with food choices. Declutter, try and get on top of housework and maybe even to start boxing up things in preparation for moving. 

Today has been ok, I'm not going to turn into a health nut, we all know that that really isn't possible, but where I've been able to, I have chosen better re: food. I could've done more around the house but I spent the afternoon chilling with my youngest daughter so I'm striking that up as a win too. 

I'm going to try and write a progress post each day, possibly sometimes short ones, but I want to try and keep a record and use it as motivation to keep going once February is over too. 

Day 1 - done. Day 2 will be better. I'm going to start with a hot lemon water and a bowl of porridge and  go for a run with my youngest daughter. Then I'm taking both girls into town, they think they're going to the museums, which we will, but it seems there're Chinese New Year celebrations on tomorrow too so they'll love that.
So yeah, I'm going to go try get a good nights sleep to prepare for tomorrow.

Here we go again!
