    At least it’s not a gain, right? LOL! That’s how I’m looking at it. ‘No shame in a gain or a maintain’ as they say at group. There’s still a bit of me that does feel shame but I’m working on being kinder to myself. I remember when I first started Slimming World I’d had a bad few weeks and I told myself stressing out was keeping my cortisol level high (which can lead to weight gain - I can attest to that from last year) so one week I was kind to myself and if I slipped up I said it’s okay, you can only do what you can do, you’re doing your best etc... and the week after I had a loss! I need to do that again.

    Breathe in happy, breathe out fear!

    Steps -
    Sun: 524 (I have the Fitbit blaze and have to take it apart to charge it, and I forgot to put it back on)
    Mon: 4885
    Tue: 4402
    Wed: 5472

    I can do so much better than that! Come on, whatever is still left of this virus, time to go so I can get back to being a beast! :D

    Definitely be kind to yourself! We all could use more of that. This is a lifestyle change we are making so its a marathon not a sprint. Hang in there for the long haul. 🙂👍🏼👍🏼

    Anyone got anything nice planned for the weekend?

    I’ve got a Sky engineer coming tomorrow to upgrade our TV package (gadz) so will need to stay around waiting for them. We have a storm atm (Storm Eric) so might be best to stay in :/ otherwise a quiet one for us

    My husband and I are headed to Boston to see one of our sons. He is in a play opening Sunday night. So looking forward to seeing him!

    Hope you stay safe in the storm!

    Relaxing after a crazy, stressful week. Have a few errands to do but not much else.

    I was stuck at Sydney airport on Friday night and had a couple of glasses of wine - I feel very bloated. Hoping next would be much better.

    Hi guys.

    Here is our step count for the week.

    We were LAST PLACE among the groups. I think if we had reported better (myself included - my Saturday was not counted) we could have been better than last

    If you cannot report - please let me know. We have a couple backups waiting to take slot.

    Well done on the group weigh in results!

    I was naughty and went out for breakfast with my husband this morning. Had poached eggs with black pudding and sour dough. Maybe a piece of millionaires shortbread... Something didn’t agree with us though as my husband and I have been playing bathroom ping pong with each other due to dodgy bellies. I guess that’s the diet karma gods :D:D least we didn’t want anything else all day

    Monday weigh-in
    Week 2 results
    PW: 255lbs
    CW:252lbs


    Happy with the overall loss, but my weight was a bit more zigzag through the week.

    Interestingly, when I strayed mildly from my diet on Wednesday (as I attended a Bushtucker workshop to learn more about native foods and sampled a few things), which involved eating some macadamia pesto on bread (I do not usually eat bread, and have a mildly keto diet), a couple hours after eating it I was ravenously hungry all afternoon and evening. I think the bread - even though it was only one slice - triggered my body to want more. It's only the second time I've really felt hungry in the past two weeks (the other time my partner & daughter were cooking pizza, and the smell had me salivating and triggered a hunger that wouldn't go away even though I had eaten enough of my own food). It really makes me think about the "triggers" to hunger, which can tempt me to overeat.

    For week 3 my intention is to stick better to my diet (no bread!) and increase my exercise.
