Newbies food diary, water challenge and C25k log...

[Charmel]

Thanks Kerry!

I'm so used to EE that I wasn't sure of the green guidelines without access to my books etc. I was stood in the canteen at lunchtime looking a bit blank!

Phew - back to EE today - I feel far safer with that

 

[Charmel]

Must add that it's 3.20am, and I've just had a glass of milk and a fudge, but I'm not counting either of them! I've woken up coughing, can't get back to sleep and feel full of cold, aches and pains. So, the cold milk is to soothe my sore throat, and the fudge was to line my stomach before taking pills ;-) That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

I wouldn't worry I've been off plan for 4 days because I've not been well and the thought of cooking - I just couldn't!

Hope you feel better soon x

 

[kerry2285]

Just thought - you cam have up to 2 hea so u could class the milk as your 2nd hea and then fudge is only 5 or 6 syns? So really you didn't go off plan

Thanks saintsue!

The C25k first run is definitely the hardest! Well... It was the hardest of the four I did before hurting my knee. Are you thinking about trying again? Or looking at something else?

Kind of looking forward to WI tomorrow. Let's hope it's onwards and downwards for us all

Bit of an odd day, after being so elated at my first half stone award. I didn't have any yoghurt in for breakfast, so went with cereal and decided to do a green day, but I definitely prefer EE days! I'm off for three days now, and need to do some planning as we are going away.

 

[kerry2285]

Congratulations to you both on the weightloss

You look like your really in the swing of sw now - im sure the lbs will be flying off you! x

 

[Charmel]

Thanks Kerry

How are you getting on?

 

[kerry2285]

Im re-starting tomorrow! Ive managed to stay the same weight while falling off the wagon for a week or so. Going to try some green days as ive brought lots of meat free stuff and then I can have some mash or chips! I do struggle with carbs!

 

[Charmel]

Good luck - and well done on the STS despite falling off the wagon
