Well done curvy! That’s brilliant & fair play to you facing up to things. Hope your dd has a great day 😊
Nearly 17,000 steps, busy day

Thanks Not.

Agree with not curvy. It would have been so easy to give up.
I'm a disaster food wise today. 3x chunky chock bars and a ruby magnum. 14k steps so will just have to be maintained day. Oink oink

Thanks life.

I just think the whole lockdown thing has made me much more emotional and therefore eating more.
Did I really need to eat 2 bowls of cereal after having a full dinner?
No I did not, I wasn't even hungry, just emotional.
So, I'm hoping that, going forward, I can spot those things before it gets to the point of no return.

I really enjoyed my fake away.
Vegan kebab meat in pitta with loads of salad, really didn't feel like I was missing out at all.

I’m deeply envious of the ruby magnum life, is it all that?
Spent my spare cals on garden drinks but still no chocolate or crisps. Having bread & butter for supper, just within cals I think?

Curvy that was strong making fakeaway while everyone else is having takeaway.
Thanks for words of support sounds like you have turned a corner too.

I'd breakfast, big snack and dinner today leaving me with 204cals. I haven't met my macros it's day 1 so I'm going measure out a Bacardi in a tall glass with ice and Pepsi max and weigh out my crisps to go with it while watching an episode of super garden.

I've another litre of water to get down me too

I'm also going to make a fruit salad in a Tupperware tub to have in the fridge for snack time tomorrow and next day.

Life that was me on Tuesday night

No not, not worth the calories. It's not a patch on raspberry. I'm craving sugar now

Good result happier

Happier, it helped that the takeaways that are open only have a very limited vegan menu, think chips and salad, so I'm glad I picked up some vegan kebab meat the other day.
It was well nice!

Ohh I love bacardi, it is my favourite!

Thanks life, you’ve saved me from wasting the calories. Remember last year was all about the raspberry magnums! I had to track them down when I was on holidays, delicious.
That’s a great day back on track happier, enjoy your little treat, you earned it.

Down a bit today. Busy day at the coal face. Will put my gym kit on and see if I can fit a class in or 2.

0.6 down.

I love raspberry magnums.

Still my favourite but I have to not buy them as i eat all 3.

I've been cooking from the pinch of nom books and also joe wickes workouts which is also tasty .
Lost about 4 pound now

I've got to write a week's food diary for the nutrition course I'm doing then critique it according to healthy eating guidelines 😂😂 that's going to be fun...

That’s an interesting assignment wreck, I wonder how all our food diaries would fare. Or in my case too much food & too many drinks diary
Up a pound - so that’s my average up again too. Oh well, it’s my pattern it appears

Sts very frustrating

That's interesting wreck. Be nice

Mine would be too much sugar, too little veg, too much full fat. Meh.

Got off my ass and did 30 minutes so now on 4600

I might make mine up it'll be too few carbs, not eating breakfast, not enough fruit, not enough dairy, too much coffee

I realised going to bed last night I never input my OJ from breakfast so 100cals over

I haven't had raspberry magnum nearly always go for white.

Down 1.1 on scales bringing my average to +0.8lbs now.

Stayed out of the sun pretty much yesterday and managed to get burnt on part of my arm under the glass on driving arm

Maybe showing the critique of knowing where it's not correct would be better than a picture perfect diary?

Mine would definitely be too little veg too much dairy over reliance on chicken

Well done living

I hate that, you think you’ve tracked it all & something gets missed.
It’s shit wolf, I’m irritated by my gain but probably would have been just as irritated by a sts. Sort of felt this morning what was the point of it, of course as point is not to get any bigger as a minimum. I feel very belly’ish this week and it’s bugging me. I’ll push on, attempt a decent weekend. I’ve had a good start to the week, no going over and banked about 650 to use over the weekend. Could do with sticking to 1800 tonight as steps low today, may try get a walk in a bit

Keep the faith not and wolf. Don't sack it off now.

Was lovely and planned not they want chipper tea. Might scrape calories, now else. 11k steps ATM and tube work out so not world ending

Got a walk in, over 18,000 steps so that’s good. No, definitely won’t sack it off, too depressing to have to keep starting again.

Tea took me 300 over and bugger all protein today. Walked there and back so on 13800 steps and still need to go get my Sainsbury's order

I'm still under but haven't been healthy today. I've had a doughnut, Caesar salad with six(!) chicken goujons and a chocolate mousse!
