@pridesabtch jeans fastening more easily is a great win! JFT Thursday 9th Log everything Stay in the green Only one snack No evening snacking Word for the year Health I'm so over winter, I dislike feeling cold :)

I really wanted to eat something last night, had to fight the urge the whole evening. Resisted because I reminded myself that I really *really* want to lose weight. JFT Wednesday 8th Log everything Stay in the green Only one snack No evening snacking Word for the year Health

A bit late posting today but want to keep the habit. Already had xmas cake for lunch with a friend instead of proper food, mustn't make a habit of that! JFT Tuesday 7th Log everything Stay in the green Only one snack No evening snacking Word for the year Health

JFT Monday 6th Jan Log everything Stay in the green Only one snack No evening snacking Over the weekend my back got progressively worse, so now I'm struggling to walk. Will keep trying to move around and hope it rights itself. Frustrating that I can't be more active right now. Word for the Year Health

Oh my goodness, my tax bill was Huge! and also wrong. It still wanted payment from when I sold my business last year, but I'd paid it a year ago. I worked out it was partly their fault and partly the way I had done my tax return. It took me about 3 hours to correct, I don't find their website user friendly at all. So…

@Bex953172 Well done on resisting, Ash certainly doesn't make it easy for you! Today we have black ice so another day indoors. I have a lot still to do reorganizing things since family left so should do some of that. Taking it as an opportunity to have a clear out and changing what lives where. JFT Saturday 4th Jan Log…

@ZizzyBumble I'm in Scotland too, we must be looking at the same sky :) thanks for the tip re using a camera. @Bex953172 I also want to improve my flexibility and balance. I do some easy exercises I saw online by a guy who calls himself Grow Young Fitness. They would be much too easy for you though, they're for seniors.…

@Snowflake1968 Your home is lovely. I'm going to do the same, keep some lights up for the rest of the winter. I also got some flameless candles this christmas so will keep those out. @ZizzyBumble Where in the world are you, when you saw the aurora? I keep seeing posts by people in my small town saying they can see an…

@mytime6630 Thank you so much for starting this new thread. I like your positive view, that even though we haven't reached where we want to be at least we are still here, trying. Not given up yet! @PackerFanInGB You are spot on, having my house to myself again is definitely mixture of lonely and awesome :) I've had a…

For the first time in months I weighed and logged my breakfast today. Also weighed myself! Not so good. After 4 months my family moved back into their own house, and I'm now in complete control of my meals again. And no longer have any excuse for some comfort eating! Realistically I'm not going to diet over the holidays,…

Been reading along but haven't posted as I'm not making any effort at all! @HappyDonkey75 I hope you can get your knee issues resolved soon. @cschmitz110515 I've never seen an upside down rainbow either, how unusual. Hope your doggo's op goes smoothly and he's back to walking soon. @PackerFanInGB I hope you are continuing…

Oh my goodness, I did not know that! I'm on holiday this week so not really thinking about dieting. I haven't been able to visit the places I'd planned on going as my back pain is so bad I'm finding walking difficult. I'm enjoying the change of scene though, and the peace and quiet lol. Doing back exercises and hoping for…

JFT Sunday 5th No mid morning snack No mid afternoon snack

Seems I didn't post yesterday. I was out of the house early, and away for most of the day. Managed to not snack between meals, so a tiny win. JFT Friday 4th October No mid morning snack No mid afternoon snack

Ooops, forgot a daily goal... JFT Wednesday 2nd October No mid morning snack No mid afternoon snack

@mytime6630, @pridesabtch, @cschmitz110515, @beachwalker99....I completely understand you all! I came on the thread this morning to catch up, and you are all saying my words! I too have been failing recently, I've put back on some of the weight I'd lost. Not at my highest, but enough to make me feel uncomfortable. I had to…

I missed posting yesterday. Had my osteopath visit, and she is fairly confident it is a back issue which is giving me the pain elsewhere and affecting my walking. So may have another couple of treatments. Today is a day at home, catching up with things. JFT Wednesday 18th PF exercises General exercises Gardening/cut grass

I don't think I posted at all last week. My house is quite chaotic at the moment, and I'm not managing to keep up with my routines which helped with exercises and logging. I've also had an issue that is pretty painful and stops me walking. I have booked an osteopath treatment for tomorrow. If that doesn't help I'll need to…

Also walked to the shops. JFT Thursday 5th No snacking PF exercises General exercises Gardening Cut grass

@emgracewrites Sorry your new recipe didn't work for you, how disappointing. Hope the others are better. Quite sore yesterday, I think it's because I've been doing more recently. I need to up my plantar faciitis exercises, feet are hurting. Had one small piece of cake for lunch (honestly, I know you won't believe me, it…

@cschmitz110515 What a great day, looks like you had a lovely time! Still getting used to the new normal, very odd not having to cook my own evening meal! I shall miss them all when they leave. Today I'm meeting my walking friend, then to an outdoor cafe for tea (and cake?) JFT Tuesday 3rd No snacking PF exercises General…

A little over, but not too bad yesterday. I'm not sure how much I'll be on here for the next couple of months, maybe I could post just to do exercise goals. My son and family are moving in with me this weekend for a couple of months. I won't always be doing the cooking, and I don't want to weigh my food in front of…

Got a walk in in between the rain. I was half way round when I got a sharp pain in my back, so painful walk home. So frustrating! JFT Friday 30th Log everything Stay in the green No snacking PF exercises General exercises Walk Dye hair

@pridesabtch Puppies are so cute! Merlin is just lovely :) @PackerFanInGB , I am the same, all the different reasons that will make me want to snack! Especially being anxious. When I was working I didn't snack, or eat lunch. but now I'm retired and at home all day food has a greater part in my life. Each meal is an…

@cschmitz110515 Happy Anniversary! THat looks like a really nice place you visited. Lunch out, had fish and chips, didn't eat all the batter. No dessert. Lovely long chat. Gave up for the day when I got home and snacked instead of eating anything for a meal. Not going to set goals for the weekend, but will try to keep it…

I was prepared for it to be a good day, I had even pre-logged my evening meal. Then plans changed and instead of eating alone, there were 8 of us. My meal for one wasn't going to cover that, so it was a visit to the chippy! Chaotic but fun. Today I'm going out for lunch with my sister-in-law, so will be estimating again.…

Got a little derailed, unexpected visitors for lunch, and kids first day back at school. Ate 2 biscuits without any thought, definitely comfort food! However, I did keep logging and not give up completely. No walk, as the weather was disgusting. I don't mind having to wrap up in a coat and scarf to go out, but I really…
