Wow, I'm impressed with what you all do to lose weight. I don't own scales. I use the fit of my clothes and how I look nude in the mirror plus how I feel in order to "measure" my weight. But I am now jealous that you can all see any shifts that your work is paying off!
My plan so far is 1) to stick to my eating time preferences - normally I cave and eat late with OH but I prefer to eat right after work and then be done with food, and 2) to not take my purse to work so I can't buy things. I eat breakfast at home - a decently healthy meusli with some fruit - and take a reasonably healthy snack in to work for when I get hungry. I work from home in the afternoons so I can come home and make a nice big lun/din and be done for the day while having satisfied my craving to eat until I'm full!
I next need to work on cutting back the sofa eating, but as OH and I won't see much of each other this week it should be easier.
Unfortunately, I don't have many other things I can cut out of my diet, I just eat too much of what I enjoy!
Ooh, and I have added in a strenuous 20 minute walk each morning by cutting out the bus and walking up the effing steep hill to work!
Allonsy dropping down from 5 cups of coffee a day will be a shock to your system. Maybe wait for the weekend or a time when the withdrawal won't be so hard to manage???
Youcancallmebetty I like the notion of all the steamed veg. I bought loads of lettuce so I could have something crunchy to munch on!
Rigt, hope this thread keeps working, as I had you all in mind I managed to ward off extra food. So, um, that's day 1 done and dusted!
