    Does that feel like a kinda win? or would you want to do things differently next time?

    I figure that these moments will come again and again - and just saying my usual "next time I'll just stay strong and not eat" - over and over - is starting to feel pretty foolish. I have to get a few tricks in my bag.

    Yeah, I need more than a few tricks lol….I had my usual roast beef wrap for lunch and then just randomly noshed thru the pantry on some crackers, eco…I used to know a man that locked his pantry and gave his wife the only key to open it….but the again, I could pick the lock……

    Hmmm. No useful advice.

    I arrived with 1000 Cal room and basically no meal through the day (basic white bread and "smoked turkey" slice sandwich at noon was closest to meal) actually full on attacked the "left over" goodies cupboard for 7 chocolate shortbread cookies (445 cal) to which I added marshmallow fluff! I then went on spooning marshmallow fluff. Surprisingly slightly less bad than it sounds 71g and 237Cal later I was lucky enough to have the Fitbit yell for 250 steps for the hour @ 23:50.

    I looked and was at 19350 for the day so far. Which means that 20k was within reach. And stats down the road don't care that 19999 is as good as 20k. One gets added to the (now 833) days that you got to 20k or higher step count stats, and the other doesn't.

    So I went mental over the next 10 minutes trying to walk, run, and as an extra "cheat" run up and down the stairs as it seems to not forget to register steps when I do that to get to 20049 plus another 330 added to today.... which broke me out of the 🐹 mood 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Then CCCGG called.... and I was sent to brush my teeth and go to bed... so further disaster was averted👍

    So .... run around like a nut bar was my solution this time! 🙀

    ⭐ - Stay below maintenance calories (ultimate goal of 1650 - but not going to beat myself up yet)

    Back to it after a weekend sidetrack...

    Not too bad - comes and goes in waves like I'm fighting something off. Which I guess I kinda am. Worse part was the anxiety. After all these months of being properly terrified of Covid...it his hard to shake the tension, even though this is Covid light.

    Fitbit says that customers who sleep 7 to 9 hours on average have lower BMIs on average than their customers who sleep 4 to 5 hours.
    S->M 6:00 in bed, slept 5:18 per fitbit, all good
    M->T 4:50 in bed, slept 4:10 per fitbit, 1,800 Cal after midnight says all NOT good :disappointed:
    T->W 4:25 in bed, slept 3:56 per fitbit, and woken by phone call at 7:36... :worried::warning::cold_sweat:
    I wonder what daily habit I should contemplate... :pensive:
