Kicking off the new thread

Great behaviour for holidays northender, it’s brilliant when you can make good choices but still enjoy it.
Thoroughly enjoyed my lunch, still have over 300 cals left, so that’s nice. Fair play for staying away from the alcohol happier for a few weeks - it really helps with the weight loss.

First time driving a bigger car than mine through drive thru so I was concentrating on that & not the menu

That's fantastic going wreck

North* brilliant positive mindset welcome on board 👍

Not2 it definitely impedes my weight loss big time, I'm limiting myself to once a month

Bold fail again

Welcome back north.

Steps not got, everything else there abouts. Back to the work routine tomorrow

1.2 up. Wtf. Not recording that one

1 down.

1.5 up. Stupid body!

Sts since Sat so I've recorded that for Sunday too to make last weeks loss 0.4lbs, bit more respectable.

Exercise plan made & I'm planning out meals also
Steps will be got every day this week(10000), I caught up on my sleep a bit last night.

I think I’m the same as yesterday, my scales (yes plural) kept bouncing around but there was a commonality around one figure that I’m using. My floor is even, the batteries in one for sure are new, that’s the one that’s the weirdest - but it’s a funny type of travel scales so it’s not the most reliable I’m thinking (it weighed me the lightest, I knew it was lying😂)
Another week to do the best we can, or in my case until Thursday then all my resolve will fly out the window the minute I hit foreign soil. I’m going to try to act differently but I’m not going to beat myself up

Hi all!
life, hope today was better
Welcome back north
So my last weigh in was friday and I STS. (I usually weigh on Sundays)
We are on holiday in Devon, so I expect to see a rise when we return home, but I may not bother as the day after we get home I will be going to visit my dd1 in Edinburgh.
The good bits though is that on Friday I did over 20,000 steps, Sat 14,765 and yesterday was 10,147. Food has been ok, but I won't promise that I will be an angel! Oh alcohol has been drank too!
Hope you are all ok, will pop on when I can.

Have a lovely break curvy, I wouldn’t weigh in until you’ve finished your visit to your daughter and even then I’d give it 48-72 hours. The woman on the half size me podcasts recommends not stepping near a scales after a holiday for 72 hours - I guess to let the worst of the bloat dissipate. I’d need 72 days lol!
Nothing in for dinner, time to potter to the shops I reckon. V short on steps so that’ll help

Two short walks today as I’m dog sitting but far more than I’d normally do on a wfh day as I’m normally glued to my laptop from 7-4

Yesterday I did piyo and pump, food and steps got.
Yes feeling better today.
Steps will be tricky today as need to drive into work. I might do a step class though to get erm ...... steps..

1/4 down

1/2 down. It's going the right way wolf

Not my best day yesterday, but not too bad. Did 20 mins lengths in the pool, no alcohol in the afternoon, 3 pieces of pizza last night (would usually have 4) & no snacks with wine at night.
Well done to those who have lost, keep going to those that haven't.

Weight down from yesterday but still up

Weight up on yesterday but my backs acting up & I always have gains when I’m taking anti inflammatory meds. I’m not weighing again until I’m back from my hols a few days. My main concern is not being crippled going away and that means just keeping gently active for the next 2 days. No mental exercise

Hope your back is a bit better today Not

3/8ths down

1/2 up.

Hope things are better today not

Mines going up and up. I think I need to stop eating so much.

I've finally steadied myself with food. Scales has been the same since Sat which is perfect. I've a bit of a headcold now so I hope that taking paracetamol/ibuprofen doesn't cause a bloat
19400/70000 steps 2/7 days

wreck do you think you're allowing yourself to eat more because you're no carbing

Yes definitely! Also I suppose it's a bit change in food I would never eat mayonnaise before I'm going to have a much cleaner day today and see if it makes a difference tomorrow morning. Hoping it's just bloat. Holiday in ten days so don't really want to be putting on before I go!

Thanks all, it’s been much worse than this so I’m grateful for small mercies. I’ll just keep with the anti inflammatories & take it handy. Bloody scales though, it’s clearly the bane of all our lives! Despite promising myself I wouldn’t step on it I had to, so down a pound but still up with no real reason except for medication which I know in my logical head makes sense but my weightloss brain is raging!

I ate pasta for dinner last night and went to bed with a fine bloated belly, was sure that it would show on the scales this morning but my luck was in
It's hard to disassociate your mind isn't it not what I keep saying to myself, my clothes are fitting me as well as they were before summer started so it's ok, it's ok, it's ok - but my weight loss head isn't listening to that

I'm not really a mayo person either wreck just with tuna & sweetcorn for a sandwich or to dip a toasted sandwich into
