    Over by like 500 cal today again and not even feeling guilty at all as I do not feel I have eaten anything to be honest, just overdone on the shakes, the chocolate ones....

    Worried about so many things (or at least this is my excuse), do not do as much as I used to prior to this week so not "earning" extra calories and to manage on just 1200 per day proves next to impossible for me right now....

    I'm feeling a bit better now and have started doing gentle exercise again. I don't want to do too much too soon as I'm still having some back pain.

    On the plus side though I lost three pounds over the past month, in an ideal world I wanted to lose half stone, but when I haven't been able to get out and about much it's better off than nothing.

    So my goal for March is a half stone - and eating a lot less chocolate and crisps!

    Still trying to keep up - I will lose the weight this time!
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.
