Day 29: Sad and Happy.

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!

I hope you also had a productive day and have managed to continue your journey to whatever weight you're trying to achieve.

Stay strong. Stay honest.

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.

Lovely blog!

looks like you're getting the mind thing sorted - always the hardest part.

Having a plan is the way to go and the lunches will be a massive help. Will power is always lowest when we are tired and our blood sugar is low.

Good plan with the tea!!

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!
