    Still within calorie limits, just had dinner. Now to avoid snacking the rest of the night. Another six hours. I can do this!

    My mother is eating chips and her chocolate candy for dinner. I can't watch! I can taste the chips but I know if I start I won't stop. They are likely stale anyway. But so tempting!

    Just for 'the rest' of today ...
    I will not mind-bash myself for overeating this afternoon. The too-full feeling is enough of a reminder so 'be still my shouting mind'.

    @Anniesquats100 - your mothers dinner is one I would have. :)

    @nsk1951 - no sense in listening to that voice mind bashing.

    I had a great day, cleaned this morning. Ran to the store to get a set of curtains. Ended up buying 3 onesies for the grand baby due in December. I couldn’t resist.

    The afternoon was spent with my girls at ceramics. We came home from there and made homemade pizza while Kaitlyn called her grandparents and my brother to share her news.

    A great day!

    Tomorrow is sunday ... so officially starting over. I don't know what I have to do to get really serious. I'm listening to podcasts .. and I think it is my "self talk" that I need to work on. I am so upset with myself for gaining back what I had lost .. but this is not doing me any good. I need to focus on what I am doing, which is exercising. Instead of beating myself up for gaining weight, and looking at all the things I am doing wrong. Next week I will focus on the positives.
    So I'll start a new week... and vow to do better

    Yesterday was an odd day, mix of good and not so good. Ended by sitting on a bench throwing a ball for the dog, small pleasures.

    Today I have loads to do, so I'm just working through it. As long as some gets done I'm happy. A more positive day.

    I have yet another cold and a bit of a temperature. About to do a test but pretty sure it's just a cold.

    Will try to be sensible with diet, but son is coming for evening meal and there will be pasta and sticky toffee pudding. I'll get back to it tomorrow

    MAY Challenge
    Walk minimum 150 minutes per week

    Week 1 190/150
    Week 2 /150

    Well I walked to make up my lunch calories, but then I was hungry again. I had a yogurt so now I'm 107 in the hole. Better than chocolate or cookies. Sundays are always hard for me. But I won't let it get any worse.
