A 5 hour 'nap' this afternoon means I feel a lot better 🤧 unfortunately it didn't stop my appetite!Well done on all WI good, bad or STS at least you all faced the scales which I know can be hard sometimes. Moneyowen I hope there has been no more hospital visits 🙂

Hi
Weigh day -3.5lbs please Brambling. Hope your cold is soon gone.I’ve 2 more days of the “kickstart” then I’ll be increasing calories for the long haul (hello glass of wine) so presuming loss will slow down though not convinced I won’t gain. Got out for 1 walk so will try for 2 this week.Old Style Weight Loss Challenge 2025

I forgot to WI in yesterday but a -1lb loss for meLife shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage - Anais Nin4 -
Weighed in yesterday and unfortunately put back on 1/2lb
I am finding it difficult to manage my routine/food when I am with family. Spent the weekend and Tuesday/Wednesday with the family. My dad has a habit of doing a lot of the dog walks without me when he's round mine (so will get up and take the dogs out rather than wait for me) so my walking routine dropped a little last week. I also find I'll have eggs+toast with them for breakfast which is additional bread that I have been cutting out by opting for porridge atm. So those kind of breakfasts may be part of last week's weight gain too...
I am back at their's next week for quite a few days (work + trip to London for a football match) so need to figure out a gameplan for it.Mortgage: £116,060 (Apr 2024)

In preparation for the scales on Monday I will confess that I am having an awful week. I seem to have replaced my “NO” power with some “yes” I will power. Scales have already told me off. They don’t do it gently either 😭Saving 1 animal wont change the world - but it will change the world for that 1 animal
