Keep on counting

[Milliemay1]

Ive invested in a kitchen blackboard and chalk I got out my calorie count book so everything I eat will be written down and I will stay within 1500 cals per day - I can and I will do it ! - My mantra for the duration and beyond !!

Good for you, Milliemay!

Good idea Milliemay1 😊

That's a good idea, and keeping it in the kitchen will mean you are confronted with it every time you want to eat something. Good luck!

Nice. I used to carry my laptop (spreadsheet) into the kitchen, every time I went in to prepare food

I don't take my spreadsheet into the kitchen with me but I do keep a notebook in there so I can note down exactly what I put in if I do a dish with lots of ingredients or if I tweak a recipe. Then I update the spreadsheet later.

Well its the 3rd day of counting and writing down on my blackboard my daily food 1 think that has amazed me is how much I can eat during the day without exceeding 1500 calories I just hope I see the result in my weighin on Monday If not I shall have to drop my calorie intake and up my walking - we shall see
