    oh no! Terrible start.... :(
    Ive put on 2Ibs!

    Not sure that was justified TBH. Ive stuck to my healthy eating and had zero cheats (unless having 2 vegan sausages and oil free roasted veg for tea several days is very fattening?).
    Hopefully its just a weird blip and not my body developing a layer of insulation for winter! :D

    2 days off the BSD...

    Lunch - wrap with meatballs and guacamole (leftovers from yesterday)

    Tea - will be roast chicken, potatoes, parsnips, carrots, peas, stuffing and gravy

    Will weight tomorrow but am not terribly excited for the results!
  • Thank you.
    I know I've put on, have had a wobble and eating what seems everyone in sight.
    I will be honest and have taken a short break from slimming world and am tempted to go back for again for the time being and seeing how I get on.

    I have felt hungrier this weekend I think the usual when the weather gets cooler, it thinks I'm going to hibernate!

    Thank you.

    I think sometimes we need to take a break from dieting no shame in going back ifyou have a supportive group

    Morning all xx 

    Monday morning weigh in revealed + 0.5 lb. Not the start to the quarter that I was hoping for. That half a pound got cross with me this morning and asked 'Do you want me or not? 🤣. It's been on and off for the last month.

    Afternoon all.  Weighed this morning and think it might be a fluke but apparently I've lost -3.4lbs which means I could be almost halfway to my target already 🤯.  Must admit I didn't eat a lot over the weekend as was feeling a bit under the weather so expecting a gain next week 🤣

    My weigh day isn't until tomorrow but I was shocked to see I had gone up today. I really don't feel I have overeaten at all. My meal yesterday and today is salmon with roasted veg and a pretty small portion. Also hoping it is a blip! Did a walk this morning and I have an active dance class this evening.
