All on track today, all Goals hit

Not2bObvious · 09/03/2020 19:35

That’s great life, I’m sure that’s been v helpful for the mindset.
I’m trying to listen to my hunger cues, not looking at what calories I have left and eating for the sake of it.

Sounds good not.
I'm being taken out for lunch tomorrow and travelling so, you know, one day got. Grin

Happierwithouthim · 09/03/2020 19:54

Out walking & my head torch batteries need replacing

Not2bObvious · 09/03/2020 21:05

I have it easy where I am, plenty of well lit paths (albeit covered in dog poo grrr asshole owners)
My stupid back is bothering me, not greatly but enough that I’m done stepping at 10,700’ish. Hoping a ibuprofen, hot water bottle & sleep stave off a bout. On the plus side, finished under calories & not particularly hungry. I could eat, I can always eat, but I’ll bank a few for the weekend

Going to put a shout out for borrowing Fitbit charger today & if not I'm going to buy another one as I've searched and not found it

lifelongfrugaleer · 10/03/2020 07:43

Does it look like this one happier. I have an old Fitbit I've just found that we don't use. You can have the charger if it works. Or the whole lot.

Happierwithouthim · 10/03/2020 08:42

What's going on? life

lifelongfrugaleer · 10/03/2020 09:04

I will pm you

Not2bObvious · 10/03/2020 13:33

Giving my best shot at only eating when hungry, pity I’m hungry a lot of the time or at least I think I am. Anyway I’ve ran out of food so I may just keep busy to distract myself. Bloody school has decided to do a dress up day tomorrow, and I had no recollection of being told about it. Going to have to shop for something later as I don’t think I have the right colour (happier bet you can guess what that is😉)

Is this in lieu of parades not?

lifelongfrugaleer · 10/03/2020 15:13

Pizza for lunch was meh. Chocca bar at the station. Only 5800 steps today but will do a class tonight.

I got offered the job and verbally accepted

Not2bObvious · 10/03/2020 15:53

Yep, no parade in school cause of corona but they always do the green thingHmm Not a fan
Congratulations life, are you pleased?

OP posts:
Happierwithouthim · 10/03/2020 15:59

I'm not either, I had dc last St Patricks Day so their darling father can have the joy of this year, but he's escaping the parade stuff Angry

lifelongfrugaleer · 10/03/2020 17:13

I'm mixed at the minute between elation and wtf and a bit teary.

Only 130 left for dinner so will be going over tonight.

Happierwithouthim · 10/03/2020 17:40

Life I hope you're proud of yourself too

I started symprove today bought 4 weeks supply of it, either that or week off the pill but my system's a bit upset if you catch my drift

I've 576 cals remaining going to make chicken satay with light coconut milk for dinner

lifelongfrugaleer · 10/03/2020 18:28

I am happier. I will need to see how it impacts gym days. I might only travel on a Wednesday when I don't have a body pump class Grin

Already have portable food scales in the office.

Not2bObvious · 10/03/2020 18:35

What’s symprove for happier, is it for your gut? I’m trying prunes these days, great at first, but not great today. I’ll persevere though.
Maybe it’s the stress of it all life, didn’t you have to do application stuff etc. Takes its toll in the background - you’ll probably just be elated tomorrow.
515 left even after dinner, feeling hungry still though - going to let it settle for a bit
