I everyone, I’m making myself post because that’s one way of trying to stay accountable. I’ve not wanted to ruin the hopeful mood in this thread but so far thus challenge has been much less than successful, all my own fault. I thought I would be able to negotiate the parties etc a lot better than I have. So with less than a week of this challenge I am 600g up on the start, so still more than a kilo away from my final goal.
I’ve been kidding myself that at least this is better than other years, I can catch up after Christmas, blah blah blah. I see so many of you powering through and am thoroughly ashamed of myself!
So back to weighing and recording yesterday, 760 cal and 19 carbs- and that’s just my normal diet if I leave out the extra spoonful of yoghurt, the scrape of the wok from my son’s teriyaki chicken, the glass of champagne when I catch up with friends.
Five more parties scheduled in this festive season so I’d better make me a better plan 😨
At least it’s turned cooler today, pool parties yesterday and the day before with temps over 40 were far too conducive to icy relaxing beverages.
Best wishes everyone for a happy and peaceful Christmas!
