Firstly I have to say...I LOVE BUTTERNUT...
When I first arrived in Germany there was no butternut available anywhere that I could see - I really missed it as it's my best veggie ever...slowly over time we found butternut at a few shops at this time of the year,also at the outdoor fruit and veg markets and then later I found a shop in Fulda that imports butternut, so it has became more available thankfully.
When I arrived back from holiday and did my first grocery shopping to stock up on my foods I noticed that the shop had butternut - I got so excited I bought LOTS... I can easily eat about two butternuts a week - Am wondering if you get butternut in USA?? I know you get it in UK...and wondering if this is the *yellow squash* some blogger blogged about today that was a bad carb as on Weight Watchers butternut has NO point value so I'm free to eat and enjoy without feeling guilty.
Weight Journey Update
This morning my weight reached it's lowest ever in 15 years...60.9kgs,
I've finally broken into the 60's.
60 kgs is my goal weight, once I get there I start the 6 week program on maintaining...I did do the maintaining program while on holiday, but now have set a new goal for myself since returning from holiday. I'll start maintaining from scratch when at this new goal.
I did while in South Africa collected the maintaining program from WW as needed it in English, where I also was given my lifetime membership key.
This week I really workout hard at the gym, did loads of cardio and some weights...at the moment getting out to gym is my only excitement for the day...Today I ran for one hour on the treadmill and did 8.6kl...
Weekend
It's Heinz and my 5th wedding annivesary as I've mentioned a few times...so have been planning for this the whole week....have dropped my points allowed from 20 a day to 18...so now have points to play with ( could also be the reason my weight came down )...am going to try get in a 30 mins cycle tomorrow morning before we head off to Frankfurt as that will give me an extra 8 points for Saturday evening as I want to keep the 12 extra points for my big anniversary brunch on Sunday...
Knowing myself - I am sure I won't even go into those extra points...but mentally I know they there so can relax and enjoy myself.
Have a good weekend everyone.
