weight loss, easy exercise, healthy food
Evening. Today has been a good day. I had initially booked today of work to do a good top to bottom house clean. Very much needed given the lack of time I’ve had since… well before Christmas! Time is something I really miss and need right now. As you know we’ve had stuff on every …

Evening all, hope you are well. I’m feeling quite run down today, Even though I only got up twice during the night. Had a strange moment during dinner, I was half way through, chatting to Paul, and then I just got very light headed. This is not something I’m concerned about, this is not unknown …

My personal annoyance with my journey is that I am STILL a UK size 24, despite losing something like 18lb now! I mean… REALLY – I’m doing lots of things right, yes, not 100% right, 100% of the time, but overall I’m doing well. I am pleased with my weight loss, I am pleased with …
Hiya all, hope you are well! Thought I would start this post with a bit of internal reflection. On past attempts, I started of extremely motivated, and then after a few weeks, look for cheats, ie, deliberately not eat anything for hours before weighing. Or deliberately eat something wholly unhealthy as soon as the weigh …

Morning all, so I stumbled out of bed and grunted at Paul once or twice. Really did not want to do this today, especially after a poor night sleep, but heyho, I know it’s good for me. I am glad I did it, but both knees started hurting and my hip, oh my word, it’s …

Hello! Here’s the weekly result. I’ll do my usual daily update later. 12lb loss in 8 weeks, recommended healthy weight loss is about 1.5lb per week, so actually that’s spot on. So, I could look at my 3lb weight gain this week as a moody failure, however… Print out also shows approx 1lb of fat …

What a difference a day or two can make – I’m feeling… not motivated as such, it’s a better feeling than that, I feel the food has been a normal day, rather than a healthy eating day… almost as though my mindset is changing? There’s been a couple of eye openers today, first one, milk …
It occurred to me today that this is approximately the same number weeks that my motivation during health journeys begins to wane, regardless of success or failure. So with everything else that’s been going on, my own natural motivation drop was just the straw that broke the camel’s back. However, I’m feeling the slump was …

Ok, last week wasn’t brilliant, last night was a disaster, that’s it, done. Back on track now. Beans on toast for brekkie, scales shortly, walk soon, healthier fish and chips for dinner tonight…. I’ll let you know if that all gets done in my evening update. Draw a line – don’t give up!
Today was a successful work day, as they so often can be. The chocolate covered flapjacks called loudly to me today. But… I stayed strong… YAY! I didn’t have my milk this morning, and until now had forgotten about it. I’ll have a glass shortly. Usual day stuff, nuts, grapes, cherries in the morning, salad …
