I did not bake the cookies yesterday - hubby wants me to wait until when he is out of the house. I am doing SO well on this low-carb eating, so really don't want to eat any. Hoping to just bake them, and freeze them until next weekend and the weekend after. Then whatever is left - will be out of the house!

Drink water while baking, and pop in a stick of gum so I don't eat any
I did this last Christmas while baking 100 dozen cookies for my business to give as gifts. I ate a good meal first, chewed gum and had plenty to drink and I knew what I was going to eat for my next meal. 1200 cookies and I didn't eat any.
I know you can do this Joan!

So a week of average to not so good eating but below average exercise as I have a knee injury and really can't train properly at the moment.
Off to Dublin for 3 v intense days of work tomorrow (although thankfully in English for a change).
Goals during hat time:
- Do basic knee rehab routine Every. Single. Day.
- Avoid any sugar based snacks in the mornings/ at lunch
- Remember to just pause and breathe to check in:Is it hunger or just tension making me want to eat?
Will reassess how I will go about the rest of the year with potential injury when I'm back.
Keep going everyone. .. your honesty and your posts encourage me.
