  • Just popped by to let you know I'm struggling at the moment. I can't seem to get my head round not eating (although I know that sounds bizarre!) Will keep trying to just eat healthily and not count calories at the moment. Keeping up with you all for inspiration :)

    It's hard when your heart and head aren't in it isn't it.

    The way I am doing it is I'm eating what I want, when I want. I don't begrudge myself anything but just make sure I eat smaller portions etc.

    It worked the first week, we'll see Friday if it works again :cool:

    I have been to the park with the pup this morning and we jogged. It's no mean feat that as he is just that, a pup, and darts all over the place :eek: I stayed on my feet though.

    After that I was so energised, so happy. I cut my shrubs in the garden, cleaned the windows and got the mop up high to clean the garage fascias. I am feeling it now, feel like I have over done it but pleased with what I felt like achieving.

    Not using the car tomorrow so will be lugging round the fields with him in my wellies. Now that is a workout!

    Physically I feel like my boobiewoobies are fitting nicely in their over-the-should-boulder-holders so that is good. I am hoping for that 1lb weight loss on Friday but fully accept that I might not get it as I have eaten ice-cream and biscuits this week.

    It's hard isn't it. I am finding it hard not to nibble. I am just taking a day at a time and the best I can. I may be eating a little more than I should but it is a lot less than I was eating. Hopefully I can get into the swing of it as the days go by. Hope you stick with it :)

    Today's food
    B: porridge
    S: satsuma
    L: hovis crackers with philly light, yogurt
    D: hm sweet chilli chicken, rice & mini naan
    S: 2 chocs, small bowl bran flakes

    I ate 2 chocs after tea and had the urge to carry on with more choc. Decided it was because I was still hungry so would have some bran flakes instead but after eating them I feel stuffed so wish I hadn't now:(

    I am feeling a bit sorry for myself because I'm full of cold. Going to have an early night with a lemsip and box of tissues:(
