Old Style Weight Loss Challenge 2022 - 2nd Quarter
Comments
-
I have come back from my holiday 0.5kg lighter. Please can that be added to weigh day, @Brambling. I mainly think it was due to a lot of walking and the heat suppressing my appetite. It did highlight to me how much of my eating is boredom or emotional eating rather than hunger. I need to work out a strategy for that.
Hope all goes OK, Suffolksue. It sounds like you are in the right place - fingers crossed it turns out to just be stents.4 -
bunkers. I just came back from a walk feeling fuzzy, I think because of too much sugar in breakfast. I am contemplating clean eating/cutting processed foods, sugar, red meat, coffein,alcohol, what's left, and I just ate ravioli, half a quiche, and 2 kitkats I really usually don't do that. but my main down fall is lunches, so will start there. and get sorted with stuff for smoothies
sorry for oversharing again I am tired, 'one armed' and have a sinus infection. and will aim to go for a very long walk later.
gym is off, who wants to exercise inside in the summer xx

Made a lovely black bean chili for dinner w home made salsa and broccoli - the guilt!

Even though I can record a -2lb please @Brambling this week has been a real struggle☹️.
I have just wanted to eat and eat (mainly carbs!) and have had a real struggle with myself. I have prepared a huge bowl of fresh fruit to snack on this morning to try and keep me away from the fresh rolls…..46,484 > 0(January):beer:

Hello
Well done on the losses.
Yesterday I had a mini babybel cheese for an evening snack, I’d forgotten how much I like those. Wasn’t hungry really, I can be a bit of a cheese monster and I eat far too much as it is.
Today
Breakfast: spinach quiche and salty sliced tomatoes; 2 coffees with cream
Other meal: panfried white fish fillet and courgette with cauli cheese
Dessert: Greek yoghurt, fruits of the forest compote with a spoon of chocolate hazelnut spread and some flaked almondsOld Style Weight Loss Challenge 2025
