1 DD and one UP day under my belt

[Derbynanny]

Morning Gil and luv 2 nice to see you here with us.
I hate counting calories luv 2 one of the things that attracted me to judddd (500 every other day does not seem to bad) and I know if I don't keep choc in the house I can probably get away without counting .
Annoyingly I can't use the mfp app on my phone at the moment but a new phone is on the way

After a whole week of not running today is the day I am getting back to it. Meeting a friend at 10 not sure how far we will go but minimum of 5 . She is training for a half marathon so there is a chance we will do 10 . If so I will up my dd calories to 700 . Not a day to experiment with not eating until the evening lol .

Hope you both have good days

Good Luck with your run. I've clocked 2miles this morning and I will do 3 later on.


I've managed to restrain myself from weighing myself today-gonna do it Wednesday with 'official' day being Friday this week -what with days being opposite.

Stuck to the 366 cals yesterday-so quite impressed with myself.

Catch u later on,

Well what a good DD i think my best ever

I finally did that 10 mile run i have been talking about for ages slow but we did it Want to try and do a 10 every other week until the end of the year so I am all ready when marathon training properly starts at christmas.

I had planned on eating back some of my exercise calories as i probably earned around 1000 but at the moment I am sitting at 501 cals ! If i am hungry later I wil have some melon and or satsumas

Hope you have had a good day Gil

 

[gillvegas]

I'm sitting at 1700 cals if pure rubbish. What total crap I've eaten today and I feel lousy-actually my DD was better! Never ever thought I'd say that.

Well done on your run, ten miles is amazing. I could never do that! What was your time?

I felt like that yesterday although i ate way more than you. And feel almost wired today. Weird isn't it.

Honestly if i can do 10 miles and run a marathon anyone can. I think it was about 132 minutes 11 minute pace average but we had 3 times when we stopped and had a little rest and turned our watches off each time.

I have now had some melon 566 calories in total

Good lcuk for dd tomorrow

 

[gillvegas]

Ended on 2117

Shattered.

See ya tomoz

Struggling today. Think cos I ate load of rubbish yesterday and had no actual 'meals'. I feel really hungry.

How are you today?

I know if I don't keep choc in the house I can probably get away without counting .

I need to try this too. It seems as the weeks go by I'm eating more and more chocolate on my up days. It's quite shocking how a small bar has soo many calories in so it adds up really quickly and is normally the reason I've been going over my allowance.

 

[Derbynanny]

well another UP day almost over. Don't feel stuffed, actually feel a bit hungry but more cos i have been picking a lot today. Not vastly overeaten but need something now and not much that i can think of to eat and i don't think a box of maltesers is the right thing to have LOL

Hope you both had good days and Gil you survived your DD

I do think figuring out the balance is quite hard . I am going to try and work towards 3 healthy meals a day on U D plus one or two treats rather than looking all day long for treats.

[gillvegas]

I agree. I have found it difficult today (final total 462), and I think it's cos I didn't have a proper meal yesterday.
As such I've already planned dinner for tomorrow as I'm so determined to have one (well that and cos its Halloween and I need to go round the doors with my girls).
Also, I work from home on Tuesdays and DD seem harder if I'm at home and not out and about.

Good morning enjoy your UP day I am just about to go for a quick run dd for me so need to get organised for work only 8 or 9 hours today instead of 12

 

[gillvegas]

Weighed in, I know it's still mid week but first time since Saturday so still an improvement on my usual hop on hop off.

1lb down this week so far

Well done !!! I have been weighing every day cos find it interesting but not stressing about it even though it is showing a gain this week but it is totm. Have 4 kids here today and my boss decided to work from home !!! Oh joy luckily it is a big house and it is keeping me too busy to eat ! Only fluids so far !

 

[Derbynanny]

I made it all the way until 5.15 with tea/water and diet coke.

Then I had some homemade tomato and red pepper soup YUM

And just about to make tea

rf saus x2
parsnips
carrots
mushrooms
courgette
gravy and mint sauce

A FEAST

The whole day comes in at 482 cals

 

[gillvegas]

I'm not enjoying this. I've again eaten such a lot of rubbish. I know not buying choc is ideal but with 3 kids and Halloween it's impossible. My plan to eat 3 normal meals disappeared. :-(

Bless you it is a horrible feeling I know feeling out of control and stuffed.

Do you eat 3 full meals and then snack ? I am finding I pick and pick and somehow feel stuffed and unsatisfied at the same time :-( so from tomorrow my goal is to think of the 3 proper filling healthy meals first then treats not banning choc but not starting the day with it .

I do think if we stick with it it will get easier . Both of us are still in the feast or famine mode but once we accept we can have treats every day it should less of an urge to be a piggy . Xxx

 

[gillvegas]

Thanks Teresa. You are totally correct. Today I started with a Turkish delight, then got home from work-did a (very lazy) run and ate 2 mini mars bars while making lunch. Then had dinner-which was kinda early at 5 ( as going round doors with girls), so was still full really.
Going to have a good dd day Tom (always find it soo hard but end up with a good total), and plan decent meals for Friday. Assuming I can get kids to eat all the choc before then.
