NSV
I threw away chocolate today. Went and bought a bar when I was shopping as was tired and hungry and feeling at a low ebb. Had a few bits then realised I was being stupid and chucked the rest in the bin. Probably saved myself maybe 150 calories even if I did take a bit of a hit Instead am looking forward to dinner. Chicken…

Motivation
Thoughts to ponder, quotes to enjoy, pictures to laugh or cry at My first thought for the day... I am a massive Dr Seuss nerd hence my tattoos. One of my favourites being the Lorax. There is a very pertinent quote I'd like to share Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot. Nothing is going to get better. It's not .…

Victories
I posted a thread similar to this in another group and its really taken off. As a group larger people dont always celebrate their victories because other people who dont struggle with their weight dont always understand them. So heres a safe place to share the stuff you cant always share with other people For example my…

That means losing about half a stone maybe 10lb in the next month or two. Im going for a Rockabilly look as Im quite heavily tattooed and love that look. The dress is a Hellbunny…

They were a bit more than I'd usually spend but I had a proper gait analysis done and was stunned by the results. I heel strike on the outer edge of my heel but I have a weakness on the…

Not sure if its because I trained 6 days or not this week or something else. In addition am worried I may have a stress fracture in my shin. Its so sore to touch and i knocked it…

Nightshift brought me a surprise
Had to take an ambulance jolly into another county with a sick patient last night. Our hossie is a district general and often has to send speciality stuff out to outlying specialist hospitals. This was a cardio thoracic emergency and had to go 40 miles away to the nearest CT centre. I am going somewhere with this. I only…

Mmmm Lime
I made some sugar free lemon and lime jelly today, 1 pint, and on whim stirred in some greek yoghurt and agave nectar, 100g and 15g respectively. It made two huge bowlfuls for about 60 cals each and tastes like Key Lime pie
