I've been away for 4 weeks and have put on many pounds and several inches. If food is there [and put in front of me] I will just eat and eat. If it isn't there, I'll just eat what I need [which isn't very much]. The more I exercise the less I want to eat. Because I've been away and staying in someone elses house I just became very sedentary. If the weather was good I'd go out walking but, if it was cold or wet I just want to hibernate [and then eat a lot]. I was also watching box sets late at night [couldn't watch what I wanted during the day as had to wait for the S.O. to go to bed...don't like watching favourite programmes with him as he talks through them!] and snacking late at night [something I don't do at home]. Even so, I reckon that when I eat the amount of food that puts weight on, I'm still only eating what a lot of people eat all the time. Reckon I wrecked my metabolism by crash dieting so much in my youth. I've also been eating bread again [the food of the devil].
