Plodding along

I've been logging for 4 weeks now. I'm finding I'm learning a lot about my troublesome areas - easily summarised as having a social life! I love the honesty of the logging. I'm walking more. Weight loss is slow but I'm still learning. Had a spooky Halloween moment yesterday: I was sat in the kitchen drinking coffee and there was a swarm of ladybirds outside the door. I had to let the dog out for a wee and loads sneaked in and are hibernating for the winter. I'm tempted to join them!

It sounds as if you've really got a handle on your new lifestyle, Benlucysam, so well done you!

It is, indeed, a learning experience and that never stops. I amazed at what I've learned about myself and nutrition, over the last year and find that I don't just accept what's being said, but research the facts and form my own conclusions

I can't even remember the last time I saw a ladybird, but remember there was a plague of them back in the 70's and they bit! I hadn't realised, before that, ladybirds could bite!

Don't go into hibernation, remember, you use more calories, trying to stay warm, so get out there, into the cold, Autumn air and burn some off!

I'm with you on this 😕 It's the socialising that's my downfall, I just can't say no!! Trying to be extra good in between to get a better overal calorie deficit 😊

You are so right about the honesty of the logging on this forum - it is a life saver! A place we can go to say how much chocolate we have REALLY indulged in, and not be judged! Onwards....
