So I’ve been insanely busy, but more of that another time. Instead I thought I would write about how the ‘declutter’ efforts are progressing, plus food and drink changes I’ve made to my daily life. Please don’t hesitate to leave feedback and also let know me about decluttering efforts and any food & drink changes you’ve made.
Decluttering
Sometimes clearing out and organising the home doesn’t require large steps, but lots of little steps that together make huge improvements. For instance recently my better half and I have:
- Cleared up a kitchen draw and removed the knife rack from a work surface.
- Finally got rid of some old cardboard boxes.
- Using up long-life food items.
- Not renewed magazine subscriptions.
Just by reducing purchases, using up items and making decisions on current items regularly, coupled with previous declutter efforts means our home feels bigger and we are freeing up cupboard space. We have a long way to go, but getting there.
Food & Drink
For a while I was gaining weight again whilst I’ve been working insane hours and was snacking too much, plus eating more unhealthy food. However I’m now fuelling myself better:
- Salad with each dinner.
- Fruit instead of flapjacks and chocolate.
- Cereals for breakfast weekday and half the bread at lunch.
- Fruit juices, water and squash replacing half the tea I drink daily.
- No booze.
The impact of the healthier eating has been incredible. However it isn’t all healthy eating and once in a while I will indulge unhealthy meals, such as Morrisions curry sauce on chips, accompanied by bread and butter!
