somewhat eratic progress
Well, I lost. Only a pound but was happy with that as I really hadn't done very well at sticking to the new plan. However, I know I am eating 'normally' again (instead of crazy over eating) and my diet is lots healthier than it has been in recent weeks. So that's good.
I'm still not fully in the right frame of mind. Or I'm certainly not in the "diety" frame of mind I have got into in the past. Maybe it'll be a good thing to take things a bit slower and focus on moderation, gradual changes etc. Don't know. I do know I fall off the wagon very easily and before I know it I'm back to eating like a heiffer.
Yesterday.... excellent all day. Healthy, low points etc. After dinner (which was filling, satisying etc) I was craving something sweet. Nothing sweet in the house. Well, there was plenty of fruit and yogurts but nothing naughty-sweet, which was what I was fancying..... anyway, I resisted the temptation to go to the shop for a truckload of chocolate, but instead snacked on three slices of wholemeal bread with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, a bowl of sultana bran and then a hot chocolate. Was I satisfied? No. Would a Mars bar have had fewer calories? Yes.
