Awww, you poor thing, I think its classed as the middle of the night, I hope you can get more sleep soon :) Maybe throw on Netflix and close your eyes while listening to it? That often helps me.

I had a craving for chocolate & I ate like half a bag of choccies :oops:. Not good but I guess its bound to happen at times. I suppose in moderation its fine.

Yeah of course it's ok Petal. Don't beat yourself up. You can't give up stuff for ever or you'll be miserable. For this to be a sustainable change of habit rather than a diet, you have to allow yourself treats. Moderation is key. So if you fancy a biscuit have a biscuit, just don't have the whole packet :)

So I went out for an hour's walk today and I drank quite a bit of water (still not 2 litres though) so I'm pretty happy. I did good food wise too. I had toast and marmite for brunch, then some fruit and nuts mid afternoon and a big bowl of carrot and coriander (cilantro) soup for dinner.

How is everyone else getting on?

Well done for having such a good day, I had more chocolate in the afternoon so not such a great day but its only 1 day I suppose. Today is a new day :)

The same as most of you here, I like to eat Snacks. But nowadays for Snacks I stay away from cookies and pastry. Instead I eat a Cucumber. And without any salt or any condiments at all. Because a Cucumber already has taste.

I ate alright today. Had some water, coffee, lemon pepper tuna, mandarin oranges to name a few things. Now I'll have some lean pork, carrots, and some salad. Walked a mile and a half today and carried heavy bags, hopefully that gave me a bit of a workout.

I haven't eaten much today @Petal It's been a manic day at work and I've been feeling a bit nauseous all day. Just had some oaty breakfast biscuits this morning and then beans on toast when I got in from work. Haven't done any exercise, but with all the rushing around at work I've still managed nearly 8500 steps, so not too bad.

Me too I got home from work and started eating everything in sight or not so much in site I don’t know what is wrong I was doing okay other than eating out yesterday but I was going to get back on it today. Ahh I want more to eat no more tomorrow I have to go on a popcorn run. So I eat that instead of the donut I bought at the store ohh well it might just be a bad eating week sigh :(:eek:

Your popcorn indulgence is alright. You can eat a big amount of it without worry-- as long as you avoid butter. It's the butter that turns you into a blimp. That's why when I go to a theater, I never buy their popcorn at all. Because their amount of butter is enough to knock out an elephant. And the overdose of salt doesn't help either.
