Morning all xx
Monday morning weigh in revealed - 2 lbs.
I've stuck to the calorie counting even though I've had a traumatic week. I was in a RTC on Tuesday evening. Not my fault but there's the initial shock, then all the sorting out to do. Waiting to hear if my car can be repaired 🤞. I'm living on my nerves at the moment. And breathe....
Good to see that it hasn't derailed my weight loss. Anxiety can make me go one of two ways: 1. eat for England or 2. no appetite at all. I've had a craving for toast- but every slice has been counted in to my daily total.
Have a good week.

Glad your okay @roundtuit. Hope the anxiety settles.
I'm very shocked this week. I have snacked all week. I've just felt so hungry. I was expecting a gain this morning but it's actually showing a -1.5lb now over the 1.5st lost since I joined you all in April. I know I could do better but it is going, slowly.LBM in April 17 - Starting card debt £33554

Urgh! My scales say I've put back on 2.5lbs. Well annoyed as I've kept to my calorie goal all week, apart from last night when I went out for a curry. I had a vegetable non creamy curry with a naan, and I didn't even eat it all as I was too full! Around 800 cals including poppadoms and chutneys. We did a really long walk on Saturday and I did a couple of runs in the week. I know exercise in itself is mainly for fitness, but still :-( hoping it's mainly water weight after the carbfest 🤞
Back to it. This week looks sunny, so aiming to get outside with lots of gardening, walking and running. Food plan is greek yogurt and nuts for breakfast, soup or salad for lunch and homemade meals with lots of veg.
@roundtuit hope you're ok. I was in a minor accident a few years ago, was still scary. Plus all the sorting stuff out afterwards.
Hope everyone has a grand week!5 -
STS for me, but had losses for the last 3 weeks so happy with that4
-
Ooo, I hope you're ok, @roundtuit
- 3lbs for me today.
Now 13 stones 6 and (according to the Wii fit) overweight rather than obese.5 -
Lunch - soup that I cooked yesterday
Tea - will be feta, beetroot and figs - in the oven as I type.3 -
