Well almost the end of July and the summer is yet to arrive properly in the UK - we can keep hoping - although it is warmer this week. Well life is often about resisting temptations even with food - it feels good when I can sit in a cafe with friends or family and whilst they eat I am content with a low cal bar or just a coffee - well I don't always do that but I am finding it easier now to do it!
The reason I have to count calories is that I have no willpower (or am too much of a free spirit) to stick rigidly to someone else's diet - this way I please myself how I do it.....and I ring the changes.
Today I enjoyed boiled eggs and salmon for breakfast - then enjoyed a coffee with milk mid morning. At lunch time I enjoyed a chicken wrap (381 cals) in Wetherspoons and later I will have some cous cous and veg.
This is all good and I am getting stronger as people comment on how I am looking good and losing weight. Now I still am not weighing myself because until I get a lot slimmer I am far too heavy and find that bit depressing. I have bought some size 14 clothes for our holiday - and have 4 weeks to fit properly into them! So here goes.......see you again soon.......
