I had a little cheat day 🙈

[Chunkycharlie]

I caved today I went into the city with my partner and our son and we stopped for some food....... I had bacon, hash brown, beans, toast and egg for lunch. I did walk for nearly 2 miles after. I'm not justifying it but was better then my efforts 2 weeks ago 🙈 I also had 4 squares of chocolate. 🙊 it did taste much better then normal as I know I shouldn't be eating it, but I did stop myself from eating more so that's an improvement 🙈

I hope everyone has had a good day and have been stronger then me today 🙄😒 xx

The brunch sounds good but no thanks to the chocolate

well I have been munching on the treats I bought for Halloween- I could say I was quality control testing but that would be a lie- everyone falls off the wagon at times, just accept it- congratulations on resisting having more than the 4 squares of chocolate. Get back on track tomorrow

" I could say I was quality control testing" LOL If thats what its called then I was very diligent at that job. In fact Nestle should be sending me BACKPAY!

I'm a massive chocoholic 🙈 always have been. So only having 4 was like a punishment yet a sin all at the same time 😂

I'm afraid I had a similar day. And what I hate is that the scales are already showing it this morning.

Oh well its back on our bikes mate. Portion control and keeping busy seem to be what works for me when I am trying to start again. No junk today!

I don't own scales lol I threw them out during pregnancy 🙈 I must get some more though as I don't have a clue what I weigh just know it's more then I would like to 🙈

Well if you are trying to slim down you do need to know your current weight , so that you eat the right amount for your Bmi. It is as important to not eat too little , as well as too much.

You can weigh yourself in Boots for free if you don't have your own scales.

Three years ago I hadn't a clue what I weighed either, just knew my clothes got tighter and tighter over several years. Eventually I got myself some scales and had the biggest shock, 2 stone too heavy. Biggest I'd ever been (except when I was 9 months pregnant ...25 years earlier! 😆)

All sounds reasonable to me, nothing wrong at all with bacon and eggs, although preferably without hash browns . I often cook bacon eggs tomatoes mushrooms for brunch with one small slice of toast ( wholegrain ). Sometimes I have a spoonful of beans too if hubby is opening a tin! It's all fine. So is 4 squares of chocolate.

In my opinion this is a normal eating day, not a cheat day. Just be aware that the total calories must fit into your daily total.
