After another gluttonous weekend away in Belgium filled of lazy-boning around, eating and drinking to excess (and some!) and absolutely ZERO attendance to the gym, needless to say Monday morning has arrived and I'm feeling rather lazy and ashamed of myself (although...I did have a GREAT weekend doing all of the above!) So all this in consideration I have decided that I plan to do the following this week:
1, Go to the gym everyday...(this most definately will have gone to pot by Wednesday-latest.)
2, Try not to eat heavily processed or calorie laden goodies...
3,Up at 7am if I'm working or not to fill my day productively....(Hmmmmm..yeah right)
note: This list was made on the Eurostar coming back to London. On arrival into our capital I happened to walk past Starbucks and to my sheer delight....YES!!! the Christmas cups are back!!!!
One Eggnog latte coming up! Weeeeeeeeee! (obviously this completely obliterates point 2 of my (frankly stupid) list!) Standing in line to order my cardboard cup of Christmas I noticed the stand of Starbucks branded products that only suckers would actually buy....Before I knew it I had convinced myself that I simply couldn't carry on my day to day life without one of these:
Starbucks thermos: £5.95
Yes, It's a thermos. As unattractive and un-sexy the word 'thermos' is it not only has the Starbucks christmas cup print around it (did somebody say the word sucker??) It will, In the long run actually save me money as I will fill it with my home-made coffee OR if that doesn't satisfy my addiction enough, when I order, say, another eggnog latte and hand them my thermos to fill, I get a 25p discount....So that means in precisely 23.8 coffees my thermos will have paid for itself!! All this aswell as reducing my (quite substantial) carbon footprint by not using the throwaway cups everytime! I'd recommend following suit!!!
I'm feeling almost saintly :)
