Thanks flumes. My important day did go well. I was doing a petition for my project and got 60, a good number, in 2.5 hours. I"m very happy with that since almost everyone who came by signed the petition.
Yes vegies are not enough for sure. But its not meat or vegies Its meat or carbs such as rice, bread, pasta, beans, lentils etc. these foods are low calorie, high bulk and excepting white flour products will keep you satisfied for a while. And that is bearing in mind what other things you put with it. There's not point piling your bread iwth butter and other high fat foods. Sure i put cheese on my toast but that's because most other foods i'm eating aren't high in fat and i'm not eating meat. When my weight gets down, i will have to cut out that amount of cheese or increase my activity if i want lose weight.
Vegies themselves are too low in calories to keep you going. EAt a lot of them to bulk up and provide nutrition, but you need other foods as well.
So for friday, i did eat quite well. I was in the supermarket but didnt' buy any food. I'm not feeling like reporting my food. I'm too busy with my project. But i shall continue to try to write something every day. and if i've anything of interest, i'll say that too.
And when i get on the scalse, i'll add that. I had my gear off before but i didnt' think to weigh myself till i had my dress back on and it weighs a lot. I was 76kg then. See what it looks like tomorrow. I know i haven't put on fat again.

I haven't given up. I've just been too busy and distracted.
I haven't weighed myself yet today. Too many clothes to take off and i'm not read to do that yet. Its cold and i'm having my coffee first.
Yesterday i weighed 75kg which is no reduction but its "ladies week" so no weight reduction expected on the scales.
Diet has been all right with a few misdemeanours. Yesterday for example i was in town in the afternoon doing a petition. I didn't take any lunch and when i got hungry i bought a strawberry milk (i should have bought plain milk i think but i didn't think of that then ) and a packet of twisties.
Dinner i didn't do very well - I had a tomato soup and some lettuce leaves and got hungry later on so i had a weetbix meal.
Things are more settled down today so i'll be good.

Gee how fast the days are going between visits. I've been busy and even starting to feel a little stress and pressure which i don't like to admit since i'm so big into meditation. But if i'm honest, i am under a little pressure but handling it i think.
well ok not too well today. which my eating seems to bear out.
I got up at a fair time considering how late it was when i went to bed but i forgot to have breakfast before leaving the house and so as i was going to visit a friend, i knew it would be longer still before lunch. But my friend had just lost her sister to breast cancer and this was the first time i'd seen her so i took her and hubby some biscuits (no flowers in the supermarket) and at some of those with tea.
Then in the supermarket i bought a whole tiramisu and during the rest of hte day i've eaten all of it except one piece that my father ate. This cake is almost entirely made of cream and sugar.
Apart from this, i've had an orange.
Oh and some cheese on toast.
not good is it. I don't feel like weighing myself either to be honest. At least i ate my vitamin pill today.

Today was a bad day regarding food. I've been stressed lately so sometimes i forget to have breakfast. I forgot today too but i made up for it later. I haven't got time to log all my food. Generally i've been good but not today.
I'm struggling with pressure and stuff like that at the moment. Weight doesn't seem like an important issue right now.

Generally i've been quite good though i feel i haven' got time to pay as much attention to this as would be good. I'm too preoccupied with my project to write it up or even to be very careful about what i'm eating.
However i am still not depressed so i am generaly not over eating. My diet could still be better in content but its ok. I'm still cooking easy foods and not bringing home loads of junk food.I have indulged in the odd icecream sundae with caramel topping and things of that kind but its nowhere near as bad as before when my whole diet seemed to consist of icecream.
I haven't jumped on the scales either lately but its probably about the same as before.
I've just started to get out in the garden and do a bit of work. I know i've lost a lot of fitness in the last year and i need to build that up again before september.
