How can you wait for coffee? I have 2 cups within the first 30 mins of the day!

Only because I was still in bed DrCarrie…it wasn’t some monk like abstinence 🤣 I get up, empty the dishwasher, feed the pets, then coffee…buckets of coffee ☕️

Good morning. I woke up hungry too - I take that as proof that I haven't overeaten the day before. 

Yes, I feel either I’m getting used to ‘normal quantities’ or I’m burning fat…both are good! I was down half a pound this morning (that was probably just stomach content, but I’m taking it as a win 🤣)

So glad day 1 went okay with the diet and being back at work! I need a really productive day today on account that i didn't get up to much yesterday. 

Im also not sure how you wait for your coffee, i even prepare mine before i sort my daughters breakfast! She knows that she goes in the walker for 5 minutes whilst i make coffee and breakfast now and i give her some fruit incase shes woken up feeling extra hungry!

Fingrs crossed for your NSD today. Sometimes you can plan so well and it never works out! I do love fentimens too!

Yesterday i went for a run on my lunch and intend to try and work out in the conservatory today. We moved the entire room around at the weekend in order to make space for my littles new toys for her birthday at the end of this month (shes got a little kitchen, a trike, a table and chairs and and little climbing frame type thing) and so all of the grown up things are cramped neatly on the one side (weights, pylo box, dumbells, barbell, kettlebells..... my desk, laptop, book shelf sofa etc) and then she has the other 3/4s of the room! I think i still should be able to workout in the space we've left for us but today will be the first time ive tried since the changes. 

Ive meal planned for the week and so tonight is chicken stir fry and noodles with spring rolls and something else remotely asian if i can russle something up!

Have a lovely day x

So much exercise @MissRikkiC! I hope the conservatory works out for you. 

I thought I had sort of meal planned, but have no idea what to make tonight…although that might not be an issue as I’m not sure I will live long enough to reach 10am for my porridge ☹️ The first part of being good and trying to adjust to less is very hard. And why doesn’t the good for you stuff feel as filling as bread and cake? Fruit and veg just seem to disappear the minute you’ve swallowed them! I have just had to look down at my spare tyre to motivate myself 🤣

@jwil…I managed to crawl up the hall with the very last of my strength 🤣
just downing it now like a ravenous Goldilocks finding baby bears porridge 🥣

Sounds like @MissRikkiC has quite the gym in the conservatory

Was the porridge nicer than usual? I think fruit and veggies will never make you feel full but chewing on a large salad for 20 minutes might trick you!
