:eek: I did exercise early in the morning, - 1 hour max though, I felt less energy and OCD / anxiety has drained quite a lot of my energy this week. However I'm glad I did go to the gym without feeling too much resistance. 
Yay for you, keep it up
@Petal I reached the goal for today I suppose..

I finally feel better, I think my tiredness was simply because I wasn't eating enough. Now I have a lot of pasta in my tum-tum and I feel better (-^_^-)
Tonight I will go bouldering again, I hope I will have enough strength I need more proteins I think, I should cook lentils or chickpeas instead of pasta ._. or maybe boulgour ! with a few red pepper it would be great I'm sure.
@Petal fantastic it seems you're on the right track
keep it up !
@Woowoo It seems that you don't need sport anymore since you run around all day haha !
@Kiwi2016 what do I read ? a Challenge ? Awesome *puts on karate band* ON FIRE ! I'm sure you will manage, don't worry too much for chocolate, it's good to indulge sometimes

So, I had another OK day yesterday. I went out to the theatre in the afternoon with friends and then out for dinner. I knew there'd be a lot of calories involved so I didn't have breakfast or lunch and I went out for a walk in the morning. So in the evening I ate some bread and olives to start, followed by chicken with mash, tenderstem broccoli and a mushroom sauce and then chocolate ice cream with warm salted caramel sauce. I also drank quite a bit, but all gins with slimline tonic so not as many calories as wine.
I had a healthy day yesterday. This was how it went;
Breakfast: oats & yogurt
Lunch: Chicken and stuffing slimbos
Dinner: Chicken caesar salad
Snacks: 1 yogurt, pineapple, strawberries, raisins
Exercise: 30 minutes on treadmill
What are everyone's goals for today? Mine is to do 30 minutes exercise.
What is your goal @Woowoo Do you have one?

I've actually had a good day today. I went for a 4 mile walk this morning & have done over 13000 steps in total. I just had coffee for breakfast, a cereal bar and fruit for lunch and salmon salad with a jacket potato for dinner so less than 1000 calories. Drink wise I just had water and iced green tea.
So, 2 weeks ago I set some goals for the month and I want to check progress at the end of week 2:
* cut down on the amount of carbs I'm eating, particularly bread. I've eaten less but still need to do better with this.
* cut down on the amount of alcohol I'm drinking. I'm going to try to have at least 3 alcohol free days a week. I only managed 1 alcohol free day this week but have only had 1 or 2 a day so have cut down.
* exercise more. Go for a walk of at least 30 minutes 3 times a week, do at least 8000 steps every day and do some toning exercises 3 times a week. I went for a walk of at least 30 minutes 4 times this week and did more than 8000 steps every day (I've done about 79000 steps in total this week) but only managed running exercises once.
* drink more water and green tea. I've drunk more but still need to drink more.
* visit this thread every day for the rest of the month to report progress. I've done that.
* lose 4 pounds. I've lost 1 this week.
I hope everyone else has had a good day
