Day 5 and feeling good!

[ambiemunch]

Hi everyone. So I'm now on day 5 and think I have found a good balance on portion sizes etc. My fitness pal app is a blessing haha! Of course the 12 week plan helps so much too. Currently still on week 1. I've noticed all this fruit and veggies giving me much more energy , im mainly focusing on eating lots of protein too. I'm suffering a terrible cold and was a little naughty on day 3 but all within calorie allowance, and I'm certainly not making a habit of it . Trying to break that habit of food being an emotional crutch! Exercise has been basic to get the hang of things this week and feeling ill; dancing around the house with earphones in and walking ALOT more.

I hope everyone is doing well and going to be good on the weekend 😃 for me the weekend is my struggle it is an excuse for me to eat a little naughtier than usual on diets (for some reason, I've never known why!) in the past but not this time , this will be the real test!! excited for my weigh in on Monday, even if ive stayed the same I won't be disappointed because I'm making lifetime changes once and for all and already proud of myself for that!

Happy Friday xx

well done and it is great that you are feeling so positive. Weekends are hard. I try to really plan lovely meal that I put a lot of effort into but that are low in calories. That way it seems like more of a treat.

Well done getting to day 5. We must have started together. I have to confess to wine last night as my weekend starts on Thursday. Why are weekends so hard? I have been pondering on that this morning and although psychologically I know I don't have work I do want to enjoy my day off to the max and not feel guilty or sluggish or have a foggy head! I am sabotaging my well earned day off and my weight loss journey! I will keep saying this to myself and hope it helps change my mindset. Have a good weekend 😊

I suppose the trouble with weekends is the lack of routine and the general feeling of being able to relax! At least, that's the feeling I get.

As I have a lot to get ready for Remembrance Sunday this weekend, hopefully I'll be too distracted to do any sneaky snacking!
