Bren's Maintenance Diary

And me!

Gluttony, gluttony! After total gluttony for the last 2 days (including - although not exclusively - a box of Guylian seashells, chocolate orange, some fudge, bottle of wine, yorkshire puds, mince pies etc etc) I am really sick of eating. I have my official weigh in tomorrow (usually a Monday, but swapped as it's bank holiday) and I'm not hugely looking forward to it as my scales this morning said 11st 12lbs. 5lbs gain over the last fortnight As I don't want to eat anyway, I'm aiming for a 100% day today to try and get back in the swing of it (and hopefully undo a few lbs of water damage!)

Tomorrow I have a friend coming to stay and we'll be eating out in the evening, but I'll still try and stick to meat / fish and veg, and NO PUDDING! Wednesday is similar - cinema trip and then dinner incl. cocktails. I will be drinking several cocktails, so it won't be a great diet day, but actual dinner will be mainly meat and veg (steak house!)

I've had porridge to start today, and really enjoyed it. I must just keep thinking water, water and more water. Wash away all the crap I've been eating, get me hydrated again (I KNOW I've not been drinking enough), and make me feel full later when I get hungry.

Aww Bren, if we cant over-do things a little at Xmas and New Year, then when can we do it. I am sure any damage will soon be off with healthy eating once the festivities are over.

I think it's good to get sick of eating now and again - then it feels good to get back to 'normal' ... I don't think 5lbs is bad at all! xx

I agree, in previous years I'd have put on more than 5lbs without doubt! Aiming for a STS this week (obviously a loss would be brilliant, but I'm being realistic!) and looking forwards to restarting TFR next Monday
