So today it was set in stone that we're leaving the EU. That makes me sad. However, it's been a productive day and I've managed to maintain a healthy lifestyle (mainly - 6 munchies) and walk 15,000+ steps. I've got more energy that normal and I also noticed that my belly is not as big. Hopefully not an optical illusion...I really am losing weight!
Hi, glad your day was otherwise productive. I've had a couple of near misses regarding food choices but opted for the celery and hummus instead of the wine and doritos... I was nearly giving in: late meeting at work, late dash to A&E with youngest following bad bang to elbow at football... Just one of those days... Throw other grumpy individuals into the mix and I was nearly right out of kilter.... Emotional eating was knocking at my door!!!.... Phew, resisted.. But feel like I'm being challenged!! Tomorrow is another day!!
Hi 19sunflower, I think it's fantastic that you resisted. Of all those things, grumpy individuals are by far the worst for wanting to eat. There's nothing worse than a mood hoover to make you want to stuff your face. Absolutely chuffed that you didn't. I didn't do as well today and did succumb...but I managed to moderate my slip so I feel a little better. Keep going! Keep stepping up to the challenge! Stay strong. Stay honest!
Hi there.. Just read your post for today on the blog " Honesty".. So taking a leaf out of your book, it's my turn... Did my Couch to 5k Week 4 run and then made a chocolate sponge cake 😀... I avoid all " goodies" but love baking with the kids... And then I succumbed to a slice with my brew,twas lovely... Not sure the scales going to agree...but nor do I want to beat myself up for small treats... Like you say, tomorrow is a new day 👍
Hi 19s, how amazing are you! Week 4 and still going strong! I hope you're enjoying it and lapping up the endorphins you're producing. And what's one piece of cake amongst the horse of being good and healthy. A just reward for the hard work and dedication you're putting in! Keep up the great work.
I ate a piece of very sweet swiss roll with jam and cream, I did not enjoy it , as it was too sweet, my taste has changed hopefully. I can say no to cakes, but I still love chocolate.
Hi Sewknit (love the name), thanks for the praise. It's hard finding the time to blog but I find it helps so much to reflect on the day and on what's going on with me for me. Tea and water have been a life saver recently...although maybe not tonight. A little slip but I managed to regulate the slip so feel ok about it, mostly. Thanks for reading it and thank you for the support!
