Hi, I'm amigababy, I'm in the UK, and returning to MFP after a very long break
(we were on a break!! 😁😁Ross Geller)
I want to lose about 30 pounds, but the first 15 in the next 3 months is ideal for me. I travel in Europe a lot which makes it tricky, but I'll be home till early April so lots of time to build good habits. I'm vegetarian, not a very good cook, and looking to do a sort of 5:2 version. With 800 calories a day on weekdays, and unlimited (but not crazy) on weekends, to allow for snacks, meals out etc.
Oh, and I'm nearly 60 😊 and I'm about to start belly dancing classes.
Thank you @RubyRed427 for starting this challenge!9 -

02/01-183.4-(Trend Weight: 183.0)- WTH? I did NOT expect this. Could it be the travel & restaurant from two days ago? Could it be the birthday celebration complete with cake/ice cream catching up? Could it be day 2 of no TMI? Could it be the worst sleep last night that I’ve had in years? Maybe it’s all one big ball of wax (or fat) all rolled up into one. In any case, I feel cheated when I probably shouldn’t. Looks like I’ll be spending much of this month chasing my own tail.
