Hey, Pod – as we are in confession mode, I shall bare my soul too.
As most of you know, I have been very focussed on my bsd journey, and have been in maintenance for 10 weeks – was 5lbs under goal weight.
Well I was as good as gold yesterday, yoghurt and berries for breakfast, no lunch, BBQ for supper, consisting of asparagus, chicken and veg kebabs and salad. And a glass or three of white wine sitting in the sun! Then, and I have no idea why (certainly wasn’t comfort eating as I’d had a lovely day sailing, walking and gardening, so don’t have your excuse), I had cheese and biscuits – didn’t need them, didn’t particularly want them. Then yet another glass of wine, which led to some nuts. Then some more nuts. Then some more wine, and some strawberries and cream. Then some more nuts and finally – and I cannot believe I did this……………I am not and never have been a chocolate type of person, and there has been a box of expensive Belgian chocolates which a guest brought as a gift, sitting in my cupboard for 2 YEARS, and I have never even been vaguely tempted. They are now out of date but, you guessed it, last night I broke them open and scoffed half a dozen!!😆😝😢
Did I enjoy them…………NO!!! Did I enjoy any of the over-indulgences? NO!! Why did I do it? Absolutely no idea but I didn’t have the courage to get on the scales this morning😭
I think in the entire 6 months I have been following this WOE, this was my first full on, mindless blow-out – paid for it though as I was up most of the night, with a churning, bloated tum. I will be having an 800 (at most) day today by way of atonement.😇
It really is helpful to have this forum to stay accountable to – I feel as if I’ve been to confession 😜
PS The remains of the out of date box of chocolates went in the bin this morning, which is where I should have consigned them long ago!!
