Really pleased with myself so far! I did have a glass of champagne at the spa yesterday (it was complimentary, I had to, right?!) but still fitted within calories. Not exercising today to give my body a break so will need to pay attention but so far so good. Going to the cinema tonight so for once it will be water instead of popcorn and coke 0 -

Sat we went to a kid's party and I ended up scoffing on the sandwiches and sausage rolls etc. I logged the best that I could - obv I didn't know exact weights and brands but it equalled just under 800 calories which I think is about right. If I hadn't have eaten that I would have had a FAB day - I did have to make a choice to have salad with my paprika pork instead of rice.
I have logged today as RED (even though it's only 8:20am) but I KNOW I will be going over today and if I don't then at least I get to come back and change it for the better!!! So, week 1 for me = SUCCESS as my original goal is to have 2 red days MAX but preferably only 1 - if not 0!
Good job so far everyone, hope you've enjoyed the week and enjoy what's left of your weekend xx0 -

Looks like everyone is doing great, well done!
I didn't even feel like popcorn at the cinema last night, it seems that now that I haven't eaten sugar in a while, it's really quite easy to stay away from it and I don't have any cravings for it either. At this rate the whole month might be green!!
Enjoy your day off, Leigh!0 -

Well done everyone on the green week, here is to week 2. I would like to have a green week apart from Sat when I am going to a wedding so I know beer and nibble food will be eaten !!!
I drank 2000 calories in beer yesterday, had a cheese & bacon burger and chips meal and then chicken nuggets and chips at around 10pm !!! BIG FAT RED DAY HAHA.0 -

WEEK 2 : :bigsmile:
How is everyone today? I had such a busy day at work, wish it was Friday already! Managed to find the courage to exercise twice though, did kettlebell circuits in the morning and a boxing class at lunchtime. Ready for bed now
Hope you all have a great week!0 -
Green again! It's like a strange experiment for me, actually keeping to my calories :laugh:
Today I had one of my hungry days, when I have to eat all morning to soothe the snarling beast in my tummy, often followed by a loss, but I doubt it will be this time. I think calorie cycling is in my nature, but this challenge is a good chance to try to do the right thing.0 -
