Thoughts & Feelings

* Wednesday, which means crisp day (yay!). It did cross my mind that, with crisps being extra, I could (I almost said should, a powerful trigger word) forego some of the other daily snacks, perhaps the rice cakes. Clearly I didn't. I have some degree of guilt over this but rather than ruminating, I shall chalk it up as an option going forward and one that this time I chose not to exercise, nothing more.

* Talking of exercise, another vigorous power walk at lunch today but I noticed shortly after that I was incredibly tired. Was it the walk or the big, carb heavy lunch in my stomach? I'm not sure but it was fearsomely unpleasant. I came very close to giving in and having a hot chocolate to get some sugar in the system but opted instead for a cup of tea.

* Received some nice comments today from someone who had noticed my weight loss, a welcome reinforcement of my regime.

* Pain watch - a constant dull throb down my neck and across my shoulders, which is likely contributing to my tiredness. Physio appointment is now booked for December, fingers crossed it produces some results. In the meantime, I am tempted by a visit to the Osteopath, the downside being that it isn't cheap. Something to consider though if I need a short term fix to get me through until December.
