Monday 6th January Weigh in.

Hello everyone. I have no idea how much I weigh and have no desire to find out. I am judging my weight loss/gain by how my clothes feel when I put them on. I am being careful with what I eat during the day and enjoying a good (normal) meal in the evening with the odd treat thrown in here and there. I did go a bit "off" over Christmas, who doesn't? but I am now getting back on track with things. Not a conventional approach to dieting I know but its working for me and I can now get into clothes that I haven't been able to for quite some time.

I went on Monday but afraid I didn't go this morning as planned. I had sardines with my ryvita today and replaced the usual mayonnaise with one that had only 10 cal per tablespoonful. I did give in to the temptation and had a chunk of cheese last night but, when that's gone I'm not keeping any more in the house. I'm a bit achey after my gym session on Monday [that's my excuse] but the weight had gone down slightly this morning. Need to give the dog a walk this afternoon. I'm a bit worried about something at the moment which can work in several ways ie I either don't want to eat at all or I binge; thus far it's the not eating mode [but that can change!]. Bought a printer for the pooter on Monday and it's keeping me occupied trying to figure out how it works. Oh, and I dug my juicer out of the larder yesterday and made a carrot apple and orange drink for breakfast. I may even have a green tea in a minute [but that might be taking things a bit too far ; I hate green tea....

Hi gilly good to see you and your approach works very well, it always shows in your clothes.

Well I have had a good 1st day:-
2 weetabix and a banana for breakfast cup of tea.
Apple mid morning.
Made a Slimming world quiche for lunch.
2 satsumas mid afternoon.
Salmon new potatoes carrots and brocolli for tea.
Through the day Tea, coffee (black I used my milk for breakfast and a drop in my tea).
Just had glass of wine.

Oh Tegan, my tummy needs to be shrunk back to pre-Christmas 1967 proportions....but I'll give it a go!
