A decent update

I've been going pretty well the last couple of weeks. I had a moment there for a while where I thought that this was going to be a big failure for me. I've been down and out for a while, not really motivated... I'm still not quite back to normal... but it usually takes me a while to bring myself back up after spells like this.

I weighed in again last Thursday (very quickly, didn't stay for the meeting) and have lost another 1.2kg. Very happy. I wanted to stay for the meeting, but we were going camping at the break of dawn the next morning and I still had to go and do a few hours worth of shopping and packing.


I have been a good girl over easter. Had one or two mini solid eggs last week and over the 4 day break I only had half a Charlie the Easter Chick! (the small one)

How cute are they!

Besides that and the two chocolate mini eggs, I didn't eat much in the way of junk food. A couple of potato chips here and there, maybe a handful in total? Not even half a handful of salted cashews, a few jatz crackers with some dip and half a meat pie (I got rushed and couldnt make the breakfast I had organised, and all that was open was a stinking bakery... bah!) So I did pretty well, considering last year Easter was an excuse to eat bad and drink too much. Oh! And speaking of drink, I only had one alcoholic drink while I was away... ONE... last year? Don't even ask lol.

I really am surprised I did so well, chocolate is definitely a weakness for me... but because I write down everything I eat, every day... it's always on my mind.  You always eat more when you don't write it down.  Never believed it until I realised it myself by doing it myself.

Back in the swing of things now, it's pretty overcast and snuggly here today so I pulled out a porridge sachet from the cupboard and had that for breakfast. Creamy Honey flavour from Uncle Toby's.. yum.

Hope you all went OK over the long weekend.
