Morning and and TFI Friday!
@nodtik I have been waking up hungry but that does pass pretty quickly when you get distracted unless you mean in the middle of that night. That sucks and is a pain. Hope you enjoyed the quiz.
@GrannyClanger biscuits and anything sugary are a real weakness for me too. I bought a packet of 6 mini breadsticks from M&S and I think it’s 83 calories a pack. It’s no where near as good as biscuit but not moreish so one packet is enough.
@RestingLettice do you have quinoa? You can use it for sweet things as well like porridge or protein balls. That’s great for protein. I eat a lot of chickpeas and tofu and varying beans as well and try and do double protein in an evening meal even if it’s a few nuts as a starter or yoghurt with fruit for pudding.
@bigdecisionstomake sorry about the lack of sleep. I struggle with sleep too but do find a relaxing yoga session just before bed really helps or reading. I also have been doing a lot of walking and not as much other exercise as I should be!
Friday weigh in day 🤓 my starting weight taken on Saturday was 10.st 13.5lb my weight today is 10st 11.1lb so very happy with that. I am sure there will be plenty of water weight in there but I did start on the 1st so not too much.
I have been smashing my steps but only one really active yoga session and two weights sessions which were both a bit of a welcome back gently. I do need to increase these.
The storm is already here so today’s steps will be from Get Fit with Rick as the poor dog will not want to walk in this.
Skipping breakfast has been working ok. I can go till one or two without eating and listening to some of the podcasts has been really motivating.
Have a great day and stay safe in this awful weather
