Old Style Weight Loss Challenge - 4th Quarter 2024

yes, well done @Brambling for sticking with it this late in the year! Thank you!
I put on 1/4 of a Ib this week (and there isnt a smiley for that!LOL). Not bothered....I had a take away so large that I had to order from 2 different places and ate so much crap in general, not my finest hour!
TBH though I have things coming up with friends and family and Im not going to diet my way through them.
Luckily I have 12days off work starting Jan 1st so I figure I'll relax abit now and reset next year!1 -
Really encouraging to see the losses Brambling and Leftatthetrafficlights. Well done!
Food today:
Avocado on 1x granary toast
Spaghetti Bolognese with a sprinkling of cheddar.
4x crackerbread & 4 ritz with a little Ginger and mango wensleydale (Morrisons)
Snacks - A small tin of Del Monte pineapple rings
The pineapple works out as a very economical treat at just 50p a tin as Morrisons is selling them @2 for £1. The larger tins are 2 for £1.50 so I may be missing a trick. They really do taste delicious.

Morning all xx
Monday morning weigh in revealed + 0.5 lb.
I'm surprised it's not more to be honest. Some old bad habits creeping back in eg snacking in the evenings.
Well done to those who are feeling motivated 👏. I'll just creep back into my cave and hibernate 😴 And 🤐 to prevent snacking.

Morning all,
Happy to report a 6 1/2 lb loss today.That was a nice start.
Snacking is the trickiest bit isn't it, Roundtuit. Still, 1/2lb gain is more of a maintain than a gain in my book. Especially if you've enjoyed some extra bits.
Food today:
2 x Marmalade on wholemeal toast.
Tuna pizza, salad and a little aioli dressing
Snacks - satsumas and pineapple ringsAUGUST GROCERY CHALLENGE £115.93/ £250
