You seem to be doing something right with your son there :) The checkout sweets don´t tempt me, which is nice - the sad thing is they don´t tempt me because of the tiny package size. You´ll get there, though!

I'm sorry that your friend is struggling with the treatment, Petal xo
You'll get to the stage where the sweets at checkout lose their appeal too. That switch will flip :)

Well I think it’s gettijg there but somedays they just look so tempting lol .
 
The big thing that tempts me in the grocery store is chips and dip. Its mainly the dip that I crave accompanied by chips. Chocolate bars used to be a big temptation for me but having an odd piece of dark chocolate satisfies me.

Chips are a big problem for me too. I find that it is relatively easy to say no to them at the grocery store, but if someone in my household puts a bag of chips in the pantry, I will find them and eat way too many.
 
Jelly sweets and cakes for me . And Ice cream but I am getting better . I don’t have that much anymore . I reckon this whole summer I had ice cream 2 to 3 times in total and that’s compared to 2 to 3 times a week .

I felt a little lighter today and tighter and toned . Stepped on scales and was down to 14st 0.5 . Weigh is not till Saturday so I won’t get too big headed as have a few things on today and tomorrow .
My exercise is going good . Did 2 lots yesterday , a workout at home with Hit and strength then a walk before bed . Did 14000 steps in all .
 
Well I have been doing lots of exercise recently and this morning my legs are really sore . Perhsps a rest day is in order . Saturday was my last rest day
 
Had a lovely day out today . Walked a bit and socialised and got extremely wet in rain . Too tired to type now so be back soon
 
Well it dried up after . Went to harvest my plums today and not 1 was left in the tree . Not even a stone in the ground . I’m baffled
 
Really craving a very cold icy drink this eve . Think I will make some orange squash which I don’t normally fancy but it’s all I have
 
Hi Petal, so sorry to hear about your friend, but so happy you are resisting the urge to eat your feelings about the whole thing. I don't know where the time went. Have been out sketching with my family and not keeping up on our journals, but my daughter goes back to school in a few days, so will make time to read everyone's entries and be more supportive! So great you lost some around your waist, and great about being under 200 pounds! I am struggling around 198ish right now, but am going to try to copy you and exercise a bunch each day.

That stinks about the plums. I bet you have very happy wildlife though. Good to catch up on your journal and hear you are doing so well!
 
Thanks Marsia for your encouragement.
Yes I suspect birds were the culprits
I had a big fall off the wagon yesterday. I ate a huge tub of ice cream . I'm not sure why but I was probably bit emotional and tired .
However I did go for a 7km walk after and just made baked aubergines for supper with fresh tomatoes and little mozzarella on top . I don't feel the urge to continue to sabotage today and nor indeed did I yesterday after .
I did it , I will pay the price on the scales and I will move on .
 
Hi, Petal. Good for you moving on from that tub of ice cream. That is a positive step forwards xoxo
 
Hi Petal. I try to eat a lot of roughage after a slip and that seems to help a lot to get back to normal. Glad you have just put it behind you and are focused on the positive!!! Hugs!
 
Thanks for the hugs . I’m struggling at the moment . But keeping exercise up and to be fair I’m struggling but probably doing okish .
Hormones perhaps
