Gah! So annoying with the scales. That really doesn't make sense at all. But as you have said - it often seems that weight loss doesn't. I have also given up on trying to work it out a lot of the time, just carrying on doing the things I think I am meant to hope for the best.
Sounds like you've still had a lovely end to the holidays. Are you back next week? Very nice of the lady in the café giving you the cakes to take home
Well caught love!
That shop lady sounds an absolute sweetheart
Bless her!
Weight loss sucks, it really does! I've been very active for every day this last week - including moving concrete slabs around - and still STS'd. It doesn't make sense - but then that's life and dieting... it'll never work exactly as you want - otherwise like you say, we wouldn't be here.
Onwards and downwards xx
Yep, I have decided that if I wait for it to make sense I will have a very long wait!
I keep forgetting to eat the cakes! They are in the fridge, so will probably share them with OH later if they are still OK. Last day of the holiday today, so once I (eventually) get off the computer will be washing clothes and getting some stuff sorted for tomorrow. Tomorrow is an INSET/training day though, no kids back until Thursday, and I quite enjoy those as they are a chance to catch up with colleagues without the normal school day interruptions.
I didn't write everything down for Sunday or yesterday, but from memory, food is as follows:
Sunday August 31st
Breakfast: GF toasted muffin/roll type thing with two poached eggs, a slice of ham, spinach and rocket - a sort of Eggs Benedict
Lunch (out at a sea front café) Roast beef with one yorkie, boiled potatoes, veg and gravy
Loooong walk along the seafront and back, including a 10 minute break to listen to the brass band in the bandstand, and a GF cake slice with a pot of earl grey tea
Later, watching the sunset from the van, a packet of wotsits, an apple, a tangerine and two pieces of beef jerky
Other drinks: earl grey tea with lunch, diet cherry cola, diet cream soda, one milky coffee when we got home.
Monday September 1st
No breakfast as slept in late, then OH got in at lunchtime from work and we had to go out o drop car off at garage for service etc, so we decided to have one last holiday afternoon!
Lunch (at a Station Bistro) three all pork sausages, mustard mash and crispy leeks, one coffee with cream. This was delicious and the cakes looked just as good, but decided to pass on those!
Then we went for a drive around the coast, looking for nooks and crannies where we can picnic in the future. Found several for future reference, but settled on a North Norfolk Harbour for a cup of tea, a jelly and pannacotta dessert from Tesco, half a small packet of prawn cocktail crisps and three plums.
I haven't listed or counted syns for these two days as I decided to enjoy my last two days without going too mad and have today signed up for SW online, so will be starting my week from today. I am not under any illusion that paying the money will 'make' me stick to it, but I like the fact that I can find syns for more things on the calculator, and have downloaded the latest food lists etc. I also feel like I am doing things properly once I can get on the website and read up on articles, healthy extra info and so on. So, here goes... we shall see.
