Great loss Lara! 8.7kg in 5 weeks is amazing. And 10%! Great milestone.
Ah Granny, don’t we envy those who turn away from food when stressed. Lucky are those who want to go and exercise instead. But on the bright side, I’m grateful I don’t turn to cigarettes, alcohol or drugs as many do when life gets stressful. I’m hoping a longer time on this diet will get me out of the habit of turning to food.
Speaking of which, I recommit to these last six weeks before Christmas. I’ve had a few bits and pieces and a couple of particularly bad days just in this past week, I seem to have relaxed a little too much. So, doesn’t matter I’m hosting a big family dinner tomorrow, I don’t need dessert or snacks just because I am serving them to others. I’m even trying to cut down on junk I serve to other people (I love them, why would I want them fat and/or sick) but this is a special occasion dinner so I’ve made dessert. Most of the food will be healthy.
You’re right MK, they are not really treats. Even Christmas, as I say I’ve been taking note of how I feel after eating non-Med foods, so I haven’t quite decided how far I will deviate from plan then. Maybe just a bit more food without eating junk. I don’t want to feel tired, sick and headachy on Christmas Day!
Angiebabe I have noticed how much hungrier I feel after eating sugar. It’s crazy.
