    A 1 lb loss since last week.

    I did have a lot* of chocolate yesterday but I guess it doesn't instantaneously add to your hips.

    *

    • dark chocolate pain au chocolat (242 cal), mini double choc mini roll (85 cal) - morning and at lunch both with others
    • 110g bar chocolate (612 cal) - later in the day alone at home (over 4 occasions in total)

    So almost half my total calories for the day (2045) came from those chocolate-related items.

    Today I'll have lunch with others and that may include a choc mini roll but I expect to be more disciplined at home.

    -2 for me this week.

    I'm surprised as I've struggled this week, but I will be back on it tomorrow though.
