Hi everyone . Thanks Sunny for setting up the new thread xx
Phew it has been a very busy summer with lots of wonderful family moments and lots of indulgence but it’s time to get back on track big time now all our guests have left . It feels an exceptional year after so many travel restrictions and it was good to reconnect with family and friends.
I sort of feel how I did when I first began BSD but knowing a lot more ! I recognise I have to be STRICT as I start back because I sense the dangers now and the temptations which were not resisted . That’s life, it was a special time but it has to be reined in now.
So I have to harness my inner SG who is so disciplined and committed ! Seriously SG, I am glad you are feeling better and have found an approach which works for you right now. I definitely think guilt free is the way to go . I don’t think we should feel we are ‘bad’ for indulging .I don’t do self recrimination. I am being sensible….but focused !
I am beginning my September reset with a fast which I haven’t done for what… over 2 months .I am actually looking forward to recognising hunger signals again . As I have said before, September is always a time of renewal, a fresh start for me even though I no longer have to think about school and work .
It’s still hot here .We had a smattering of rain yesterday after high winds but everywhere is still so dry . Hubby is preparing for his knee op next week and I am likely to be on my own for 3 weeks if he is admitted to the physio centre . That’s a target … to take me to the end of the month.
Good to see you with us Verano and I am glad you had a lovely time away .Yes, I was eating 3 meals a day at times too, previously unheard of for me . Well done on a very modest gain which you are already addressing .
I hope we get some returners .I will begin a new list when I see who is posting .
It’s Windy Julz’s birthday today .Come on Julz… let us know how you are !
Lauren, I will seek you out ! Clare, are you ok ? Glad you a had a good holiday in Scotland.
