May I lose more this month

[Octopus37]

Apologies, cannot remember who's idea this was for a thread title, but I have stolen it.

9st3.75 this morning, meaning I am 0.25 down from the start of April. Not great, but I did get up to 9st7 in April, so I'll take that. Would be delighted if I could lose a pound this month. Lets hope the weather picks up, I'm sure that will help everyone.

Hello, back from my 2nd restaurant meal in as many days. I must focus for the rest of the week now. Water water water! (by the way do you think squash counts?)

Yes it does.

I have a bag full of fat lady swimming options that were delivered today. I couldn't face it today but will brave trying things on tomorrow. At least home mirrors are not quite as atrocious as mirrors 5cm away from you from all angles in a changing room.

@NutellaEllaElla hope you enjoyed your meals. Sounds as if everyone is doing well. Had a reasonable day yesterday, although not enough steps cause of the awful weather. 9st3.5 this morning. Like you @TheHoneyBadger no idea about whole period thing. Nearly 4 weeks since my last one, had a little bit of spotting from last Wednesday till Sunday, really almost nothing, dont know if that will be it for this month. Its all such a guessing game, hate what it does to my mood as well. Nevermind. Have a good day all.

Oh gosh I'm sure my period can't be too far off. 9st 0.25 this morning, so 1.5lbs done from simply eating three completely satisfying meals.. Just to get it into my head to continue this.. Will get another short walk in today, was literally 3k yesterday but something better than nothing. Dreadful sleep again.

Water, teeth, skincare, walk.

I went to the gym today and fuck knows what I've done but I'm in agony! I was on the exercise thing where you lay down and use the back of your legs to curl the weight bar up and when I stood up I had this immense pain under my right boob and all that side of my chest. It feels so painful still four hours later. No idea what I've done

Crap stressbandit

Came on to say water, water, water!

Logging for day here.
Ono and cappuccino
Chicken stir fry and rice leftovers
Spag bol
Done. Heading for quick walk now.

Night night, hope everyone OK out there! Teeth brushed, skin pampered and a half hour walk in. So far, so good. One day at a time.

@stressbandit hope your injury is better today, you poor thing. 9st3.25 here this morning, but have a bad stomach, think I ate too many nuts the other day. DS1's 14th Birthday today, going out for a meal later, so hopefully it will have calmed down by then.

9st on the button this morning. Back to the sub 9 aim by the weekend. Three good meals ahead today.
Main aims however: water, early night, skincare and.... Water. Busy day ahead, no walk likely but that is OK. Have a good day all and hope you're not as sore stress bandit. Tbh just looking at those machines makes me think of twinges and bad backs but obviously I know nothing about it. Just looks like too much pressure on legs at expense of lower back.

Good morning, it was my leaving do at work yesterday and there was lots of cake. I have no willpower so today is clean slate day.

13:7.2 so down by 0.6 since Monday but still above lowest. Period has landed though so that may help.

@HeyGirlHeyBoy well done, thats fab

Thanks Octopus, enjoy the birthday meal! Still no meals out here yet and I can't wait! 4 x 400ml water in already so hopefully that will do its job. You'll get back on track Nutella. I figure every hour, day and week on track is something, that's what we should count rather than the other days!!

Found today hard enough. Had a free and unexpected hour and of course thoughts of sugar sedation rushed in to hook me. I actually drove to try and find some decent food and just have an early dinner but no luck so had a latte and a call with a friend. The substitutes annoy me when I read about them but they do work. Heading home for dinner now and feeling hungry for it. Hope you all had a lovely, sunny day!

So I fasted and was busy on my feet at work plus came home and went back again during my free to pick up some worksheets I'd forgotten so not too bad on steps and burn. I've had two slices of pizza and 6 salted caramel profiteroles though. Definitely comfort food. Just so tired at the minute.

Shockingly not only was my period on schedule but it's very heavy and I feel wiped out. Doing well on water though so that's one good thing? Need nutritious food tomorrow.

Same here, gold star for the water today
Logging :
Ono, cappuccino
2x soda bread and butter, 3 slices cheese, pear
Latte (cals on these also vary widely but it held off my hunger)
Cheese and tomato omlette... Yes, that was my much looked forward to dinner DH seemed surprised that I expected something when I arrived in at 6. Grrr.. Anyway I made do and no harm on the scales. Have a lovely evening all.

A good day today, I wasn't feeling hungry or at all snacky so an under budget day which won't go far enough to counter my recent over days but certainly won't hurt.

Well done Nutella! Count all the wins I say! Teeth brushed so it's a wrap here!

Thank you Heygirl

Well done @NutellaEllaElla and @HeyGirlHeyBoy. Sorry to hear that you're feeling wiped out with your period @TheHoneyBadger. Up a pound here today, not enough steps yesterday cause earlier in the day was feeling rubbish with my stomach. Went for a Toby Carvery, just ate a normal plateful, didn't dare chance any alcohol. Up a pound this morning, but thats ok

Hope you're feeling better today octopus and you Honeybadger. I'm down a pound to 8st 13 so looks like last week's excesses didn't do too much damage somehow. Back on track. Here's to a good day everyone. Water water water!
Goals here are: 3 decent meals, fruit for snack if needed, walk and reasonable bedtime.

Ooh, just realised that's a new low for me since Christmas

Storming it Heygirl. Are the Chemical Brothers your favourite band? I used to like them too, enjoyed the Push the Button album. But I was always more into rock, punk rock.
