Hello everyone,
Sorry I've not checked in in a couple of weeks!
@EngelbertHumperdinck it sounds like things were really good when you posted! Getting someone to take the cans home was a very sensible plan - there's no benefit to proving you can resist them, better just to remove the temptation! I remember a little while ago meeting a friend at a cafe. And she was ordering drinks. I asked for diet coke but they didn't have any and she bought me coke! She's very slim and didn't know I'm trying to lose weight - I was gutted! Anyhow it doesn't matter that you've not done amazingly overall, reducing sugar is a fantastic start! I hope you weren't too disheartened trying on swimming costumes as well.
@Thejugglestruggle well done. That's amazing. I hope it's not too long till you meet the next goal. Maybe you've already met it?
@Roussette glad you are not too discouraged - 4lb is ok. Hope the last few days have gone alright.
I haven't been doing too well the last weekend. But I've basically maintained I think. So that's good. I have made a couple of decisions. The first is no more burgers on my own. This is quite a big deal as this entire time I've basically had McDonalds delivered every week on the day I weigh in. I'm on board with having a little treat. But it's kind of ridiculous. And the other is there's one day a week where I have nearly 3 hours to kill between work and a social thing I do. And no matter how hard I try, I end up eating lots of food, which is slowing my weightloss and costing money. But I've found a class in my gym that's at the perfect time, and will be a lot of fun, and will cost less money than I usually spend on food. It's a handstand class. And I've always wanted to be able to do a handstand. So I'm delighted! Unfortunately I won't be able to go this week, but from next week I will. I think having some structure in that downtime will help a lot.
I was 83.6kg this morning. Fingers crossed for the next week.
