Savoury snacks now, today is a write off

Didn’t even bother thinking about what I was eating the last few days. I drank wayyy too much yesterday and have been playing the snack game all day today.

Start again tomorrow. Am weighing myself daily now to see how much my weight fluctuates through my cycle. Dh thinks this is nuts. But it’ll help me.

Going to try and go for a pre work run tomorrow morning. Depending on what time I wake up.

We can all be angelic from tomorrow on, nothing between now and summer to distract us. We'll be like supermodels by then. Hope I sound convincing??
No proper idea of cals but doubt I went over by too much - maybe 200. That's what I'll log in mfp, just need something to go by.

2457 steps so far. Been out for a short work. Melon for breakfast. Made lunch for work - leftover salads.

Aiming for 10k steps by lunchtime.

Up 1.4 after yesterday's takeaway. Freshest of starts today, smoked salmon & cream cheese on a thin bagel, only around 250 cals. Salad for lunch, not sure what to have for dinner but it's going to be a light day after a weekend of excess. I should be doing weights but thinking I'll switch to tomorrow morning as I'm quite tired.

Up today but deserved after the weekend. Weights tomorrow here too. Walk planned

Got a brisk 40 mins this morning, and a bit of trotting on the spot. Just shy of 7,000 steps, a bit to go but it's not too bad. Plenty of day left. Salad demolished. Let's see can I stretch til dinner!

7149 steps. Had to do some birthday present shopping so a schlep around town.

Salad done. Wahooo. Starving though.

14000 steps

Just had a packet of corn crisps, sometimes the salad is a waste of time, bloody starving.
Great steps life

Hungry.
200 over so far.

Must be something in the air, I'd picked at the Easter eggs and had a mini twix! Sometimes I'm well able after a weekend of excess to cut back. Other times I think I've stretched my stomach & there's no filling it. Make it a maintenance day life, you'll still have 200-400 extra left in that case maybe?

I'm leaving it for now. Had dinner and am full. Craving sweet stuff but that's probably the come down from the weekend chocolate feast.
None of the chocolate left is mine so it's stealing from DC too

Maintenance day as cracked and had some nuts and a bunny

Made an almost fat free chilli for our tea tonight , so will behave myself although l had BUTTERY toast when l came from Mumbobs
Everyone here seems to be ok ish post Easter though especially re the exercise
It's been nuts here today , snowing, hailing, raining and strong sun & blue skies

Now if they were Lindt ones then YES!

Have had the worst few days food wise, need to stop now! Transfer on Friday so a few days of healthy food needed.
Haven’t dared to weigh I dread to think. Once I’ve had the embryo in I can only walk for exercise so will need to have an angelic 11 days until the test, then if it’s negative I can crack on with the spin classes.
Have been binge reading cosy 1930s mysteries and eating cake

Down .6 this morning, although that took some scale relocations, only fooling myself! Got a body pump and 45 min brisk treadmill walk done. Add that to shopping, a mediocre 6500 in the bag.
Cake and 1930's mysteries sound fab, is it Agatha Christie?

Patricia Wentworth’s Miss Silver series - the first book is called the Grey Mask. VG!

I didn't touch easter chocolate all weekend, resisted ice creams, desserts etc
Had a salad for lunch yesterday, substantial with a chicken fillet and two pieces of soda bread. It was frugal too as it was bf's salad from his steak sandwich on sunday which he didn't touch! His pepper sauce made my dinner the evening before

well and truly tarnished after last night, ate most of easter egg, had nutoka on piece of soda bread. Reminds me must put up recipe for mrsmadevans

Saw 186lbs on scales this morning, this is my alcohol bloat but still horrifying

Good luck gen.
Pump and aerobic today. Pacing park to keep warm

ds asked if we were walking yesterday while dd was horse riding, I'd an extremely busy day on my own at work yesterday so said no, we did go for a short walk with dog later on though
