It started well with two weetabix for breakfast. Collapsed at lunchtime.
My new waste-reduction campaign entails me eating up left-overs, which in this case meant white bread. Toasted with butter (lots of it obviously) and marmalade. On the plus side I did have some chilli beetroot before it. And some left-over barbecued corn on the cob - which although a Free Food is not a Speed Food so not entirely good.
So while saving the planet I am putting my diet at risk. Hey ho. Sacrifices have to be made.
I want to lose some of the weight I've put on over the last few months of holidays and enjoying myself, which is all very well and good but I am torn because every now and then I think, 'So what if I have a bit of extra weight? I am enjoying myself.'
And I reply, 'But you feel much better in yourself - more confident and happy - when your shorts don't feel so tight.'
We shall see which one of me wins.
But I shall have to go back to Slimming World because however strong I think my resolve is it doesn't work without some other motivation.
I'm push-me-pull-me with the weight thing. At my age I think why bother but then I'd like to lose a bit. It's not new, I've been like this most of my life. Photos of me all different sizes, lol

ReplyDeleteToast and marmalade with chili beetroot? Guaranteed to ensure weight loss surely…
ReplyDeleteI must try it, I'm a size bigger than I was at Christmas.
