Comfort eating!

Midnight-munchie profile image

Seem to be in need of comfort food the last couple of days think its because after last weeks bug I now have a cold and seem to be looking for yummies to eat all the time !!

Hoping that its not just me I know I haven`t put weight on as I have amazing new scales and love getting on them each morning just because they are so fun ! sad I know :-)

Think after last two days I will just maintain this week which is not clever maintaining at 17.7!!

I do find posting helpful and takes me away from the kitchen!! :-)

I think we all look for comfort food when we're under the weather MM, it's probably a throwback to childhood, when we were tempted by, or treated to tasty little delicacies :)

You've made the right move by coming on here and distracting yourself :)

I've done my cycling for the day - can't wait to actually be able to take it outside again! :)

I hope you're thoroughly enjoying your soak and that all those nasty cravings wash down the plughole with the bath water :)
