Mirrors don’t lie

[Grannysqua]

Hello all hope this week will be a great week for you all 😀 I came back from really good weekend away I did weigh this morn and said I had put on a pound so not bad considering what I ate and drunk anyway went to shops managed over 6000 steps believe me that’s good for me 🤪 tried on a top in shop that had a long mirror oh my 😳 I haven’t got a mirror at home only an small one I think I will have to get one ! I really didn’t realise how big I’ve got 😬 on a positive note it’s give me the kick up the backside I needed so have had a good day with food today I don’t know why I’m always thinking about food ? Especially all the things bad for me like sweets chips chocolate but I didn’t succumb to it 😀 I’ve just made a mince veg stew and looking forward to that so here’s to a good week and hopefully more steps 🚶🏻‍♀️I just want to say thanks everyone for all the support tips and encouragement 😀

Hey Grannysqua I think that your weight gain is minimal considering you've had a special weekend.

You know what you want to do so having a hearty stew like this should make you well nourished because when we are well nourished we feel satiated, well thats the plan...😀

Thanks Jerry your right I have this thing where I have to feel full this will certainly do that and syn free as doing SW also I have started drinking more water I just need to change my mindset and my relationship with food 😀

It’s okay to cheat every so often— especially for vacations and special events. Don’t worry about anything.😀👍

That’s what holidays are all about! I did a mince beef stew in my slow cooker this week and turned it into cottage pie, really enjoyed it, yours looks like it’s got lots of nice veg in it 😊

PS - I think some mirrors do lie 😉
