I finally got my act together and ordered the digital food scales which will make life a lot easier when measuring out food because at the moment I’m kind of eye balling it but I’d like something a bit more accurate so then I can keep track of my calories in a day. I ordered it online from Mighty Ape which has quoted delivery next Monday – will be looking forward to giving it a test run and see how it performs. Normally in the morning I’ll have an ‘Up and Go’ but I’d like to mix it up a bit with some variety such as having natural unsweetened yogurt with flaxseed oil (for omega 3) mixed in and some mixed berries (I buy them frozen because they’re more affordable that way). Today I hard boiled 10 eggs which will make them good for a week – I’ll probably have 2-3 of them tomorrow for brunch with some spicy sauce on it. The benefit of the eggs is that they’re low in calories and keep me full until my second meal without making me feel bloated. As for my second meal, I’ll probably just have soup.

I’m looking at maybe getting a watch sometime in the future primarily so that I can keep track of the number of steps, distance, heart rate, calories etc. I’m tempted to get a Pixel 3 watch but Garmin have a pretty good range not to mention OnePlus has launched their Oneplus Watch 3 which runs wear OS. For me I don’t really care if there is Google Pay on the watch as long as the numbers are fairly accurate then I can keep track of how I am progressing. It is something I’ll sleep on first – there is no rush and I don’t want to make a purchasing decision that I end up later regretting. There is also the Nest security cameras I’m looking at purchasing to replace my curent Arlo setup. The camera setup I’m looking at is the one that has the two spotlights and the camera in the middle where it is still wireless but the camera is powered from the mains which avoids having to worry about the batteries need recharging then forgetting to put the battery back until days later.
