Frugaleers - into 2022

[Not2bObvious]

New thread to see us into 2022

What is a frugaleer?

Thanks not

Maintaining yesterday's 163 - kept to around 2000 cals yesterday so that's ok. My mind is moving between f'it it's Christmas and Christmas is only 1 day. Hopefully heading away for 3 nights next week so if I can stick to the 1 day idea I'll be in better shape to have fun while away.
Winding down work wise, very quiet so no complaints.

Thank you for the new thread Not
Excellent work re the 163 maintaining Not
Have been busy yet again so have been good , will be treating myself as from tomorrow probably l almost don't want to because l have had such a great run , we'll see
B/P is stable and good at least so l am thankful for that
Have a lovely evening everyone

My scales and weight can be a bit tempramental but it appears I've lost half a stone so hopefully I'm starting to get the hang of this weight loss malarky.

Down a fraction today to 162.8 - I think it's safe to say it's going to go up from here.
I hope you find a nice balance you can be happy with mrs, some treats not all treats is going to be my mantra. The 5th quality street won't be much nicer than the 3rd, a second slice of cake won't beat the first slice - that kind of thinking I'm going to try.
My heads banging, the thoughts of going to get the last bit of perishable food is killing me😩

Great focus there not
I ate an entire pack of Terry's chocolate orange chocolate fingers night before last, I'm not really a biscuit person but had no dinner and fancied something nice.

What is a frugaleer?

It's someone who is frugal with their money & resources in life. We're all on another thread together regarding our finances so made this one for our weight loss talk

Those chocolate fingers are devilishly moreish happier, and you had room with no dinner onboard.
Shopping done, most everything sorted I think, need to take a few bits from the freezer. Will get showered and cleaned up this afternoon, hopefully my headache will be gone by then

Oo hope the headache clears not
We’re the biscuits worth the calories?
Pringles for snack this morning

Oh they were lovely life
199.5 this morning

Turns out I left the caster sugar at my parents because I was going to make the brownies there! I might make them later on.

Rain is gone away now too

I keep telling myself the chocolate and crisps are not my friend and to keep away from them. Sometimes works!

Bought some lemon and ginger tea so hoping this might help with weightloss.

Got my wheat drinks and smaller than usual tub of pasta to keep me going today. I'll try for the treadmill tonigh, if not my 'usual' 20 mins hula hooping (3 nights in a row now!) Aim is another half stone loss by new year.

I dragged my arse off the couch and did a low impact cardio session & 2 x get fit with Rick in the hope of sweating out the headache (The headache is totally self induced and is staying to remind me that all the wine is not necessarily) Glad I did the gentle workouts, not feeling up to weights or jogging after last weeks tumble.
I looked back on last years mfp around this time and I was mainlining the Pringles life - none were bought this year, I'm not safe around them😂 Plenty of other crisps to abuse though.
Good for you talk on the loss so far, I'm more likely to gain half a stone by new year of past years are anything to go by.

Talk what about enjoying yourself, there are 51 other weeks in the year for being strict on yourself

Merry Christmas everyone
Have eaten buttered toast x 3 slices , 1 pib, 4 Thorntons chocolates , a cinnaman swirl so far today and l am so full and uncomfortable atm l never want to eat again Serve me right!
Well done Not not buying the Pringles is a great start , honestly l have so much food here l want to get rid of it asap lol.
I do hope your headache has done one
Talk well done on the fighting talk
Happier that wasn't too bad because it was instead of dinner
Can't fault the Pringle snack Life

Happy Christmas all

Sounds plausible life😉
Kids delighted with their haul, delighted with my own bits. Only one chocolate & 1 fancy biscuit inhaled before breakfast so go me. Still holding the 162.8 - blessed are the hangover headaches for getting me off the floor and away from junk. Hope all your days going beautifully 💕

Kids are happy here too. Giant roast underway

Merry Christmas all! I’ve eaten my own body weight in cheese but have booked a PT for 12 weeks starting next week so I feel calm. 😂
Hope you’ve all had fab days x

Hope you had a brilliant Christmas gen
I was doing great til I sat down to watch CTM, then my inner Christmas piggie came out to scoff all the chocolates! Could have been much worse though. In bed at 10, asleep before 11 and just woke at 6. Wash on, sitting down relaxing. A much easier day today, EP heading home, so a day to ourselves. I enjoy Stephens Day, the calm after the crazy
