MUMenTUM - Monday Mum Tum - woe is me violin time ...

It's that time of the week once again. MumenTum for ladies with a Mum Tum.

I load this on Sunday in case anyone wants to do their Monday post a day early, or tonight.

This blog hop is open to anyone with a Mum Tum.  Either write in the comments if you don't have a blog, or write a post and add it to the linky below.  When doing so, grab the code whilst there, so that you can have the linky list at the bottom of your post tooooooo - that's what makes it a blog hop.

Please don't link to your whole blog; add a link that goes straight to a relevant post.  We're a lovely group of ladies and you can read about us all at the biogs that I mention below.

You can skip my waffle and go straight to the linky if you like. I promise I won't be offended - okay, only a little bit ;-)


Since Mumemtum started I have been an organiser rather than a doer...
In self-help speak that is a spectator rather than a participator (you have to say that with an American accent)...
I organise the weekly linky...
I organise hooking people up on email...
I organised us voting on which hashtag to use which results in the hashtag #Mumentum...
I organised everyone sending me their biogs so that I could list them here...
When people show an interest in Mumentum I add them to a Twitter "list"...
I appear very organised but here's the truth...

Me - The MumenTum Cheerleader!

Since Mumentum's been running I only did one food shop and that was the resentful one I blogged about, where hubby skulked off to the Tesco cafe with Aaron and I stomped around by myself (1. because it was his idea to go food shopping and 2. I normally order online and have it delivered).  Well another set of days off have gone (I am working tomorrow) and I haven't done a food order.
And every good dieter knows that you can only eat healthily if you have the right foods in.
Work has been the only thing on my mind the last few weeks........ to the exclusion of all else, and I don't eat well when I am focusing too much on work.

How have we survived? Well I have popped to Sainsbury's or Co-op a few times, for a handful of items and the husband gets things on his way home from work, but we haven't had proper healthy food in, and it's been my downfall.  I did have a beautiful salad for lunch yesterday and again today though (because I walked to the shops in the rain on Friday, but as I don't drive I only got what I could carry).... Why I haven't done an online order I just do not know!!!

Being busy at work has also meant that I haven't organised anything for Aaron's birthday.......... but I secretly want to have a party for his baptism instead which I am hoping will be in August.  Anyway, I still haven't bought his present, which we were meant to do in Argos today, but me and the husband fell out instead....

So here I am trying to write an inspiring Mumentum post and feeling sorry for myself instead...


I have done some Googling though and I am trying to find out what one should have for breakfast when one is on an anti-candida diet..... starting the day with sugar (my usual jam on toast) sets you up for a fall and puts you on the rollercoaster of sugar rushes you are meant to avoid when suffering from Candida.

I'll go and weigh myself now, to see if I miraculously have any good news on that front....

I'm back.  First piece of good news, I haven't put on any weight! Second piece of good news, I have kept off the 2 pounds that I'd lost this time last week. 

So yes, I ermmmmmm need to get a little serious and errrrrmmmmm a little focused, if anything is going to happen here.

Otherwise I will just be the MumenTum cheerleader, watching you all continuing to do very well while I wave my pom poms :-)
