Thoughts and Feelings

* Sunday, which means roast dinner;. Which in turn means the one day of the week when I will allow myself a normal evening meal. That doesn't mean abandoning the plan though. Carbs are managed, if not rationed so intensely.

* For various reasons, I couldn't squeeze exercise in today. I am not disheartened though. I got some things done that needed doing and I know that I will be back into the usual walking regime tomorrow.

* There are very specific moments, under (perceived) times of high stress, when I just want to chuck it all in and go buy some sweets. I have resisted thus far but I am very conscious that I am only one bad weigh in or one material adverse scenario away from falling off my self imposed dietary wagon.

* I am also conscious of how many 'allowances' I give myself. A roast here, a snack bar there. In isolation they are fine but added up they will add the pounds back on.

* Finally, I am aware that, really, not much has changed. It has been two weeks, I have made a few rudimentary adjustments to diet and am more conscientious with exercise at lunch time. But other than than, it is still pretty much business as usual. I should not expect weight to simply start falling off just because I want it to.
