Put that down, fatty! (again!)

Thanks guys - dinner was about as inspiring as a cats asshole last night. BUT, it was very filling. And nourishing. I guess. I hate that word so much - my friend is a pretentious butthead and every time he eats a vegetable he says how "nourishing" it is in this smug little voice and I'm like.. some of us actually eat this shit all the time. For him it's a wonderful nourishing novelty. Now he lives in Japan and lives on sushi and lost like a thousand pounds. Lucky chap.

I got up at 6am this morning to slow-cook the shit out of a veggie chilli. My organisation levels are awesome right now, meals are prepped for lunches all week and I know what I'm doing for dinner each night. I walked 16,000 steps so far today which is banging. I'm rather pleased. Scales still telling me I am giant whale creature but body is looking fiiiiiine. I love it when you wake up in the morning and your body is empty of all fooooods and your stomach is super flat. I like them feels. Felt good this morning. Now I am in my PJ's, drinking gin and waiting for my friend to come over. She's staying the night so I get to be all friendly all evening and I'm not really feeling it to be honest. It's a watching Rick & Morty in my pants sorta evening but gotta be social.

Food for today was left-over veggie curry and a low-fat yog for lunch and veggie chilli (can you eat too many chickpeas? I feel mostly made of chickpeas today) with some QUINOAAA AND PEARL BARLEYYYYY ARGHHHHHH> >>>

Thinking happy thoughts - fatty out <3
 
Ahhhh I just realised my laptop has a webcam function - we should totally share "HULLLLLO" videos.
 
Ooo I wish I could afford to live on sushi! Pretty sure I´d manage to down so much of it I´d be gaining weight :p

I see where you went wrong: next time you don´t want to add shit to your dishes in the first place. Easy thing to get wrong of course.
 
Hi Hana,

Actually veggie chili sounds very tasty. I have learned to like veggies - not because they are nourishing(lol) but because I really do like them. I think as I have gotten older - I eat a lot less meat- a LOT less. I think I could almost become vegetarian very easily.
 
I reckon I'm rather late, but I read through your entire thread today. Your wedding pictures are absolutely stunning! ;o
 
Thanks everyone :) I do love my veggies - I would just rather be eating giant bowls of pastaaaa.

Nearly did 16,000 steps again yesterday. Think I've been doing a little too much after work.. I feel awful today, really tired and sicky. I've been doing 10 hour days at work and then either volunteering in the evenings or seeing friends. I'm supposed to be working the soup kitchen tonight and I've brought a hot water bottle for one of the homeless chaps so I really want to go and give it to him but it means I'll be doing a 14 hour working day and I feel like balls. He's like 75 and street homeless and has arthritis :( So sad. I'll see how I feel later. Calories were high yesterday, around 1900 for the day but mostly on healthy foods, just too much of them. I've been logging on myfitnesspal though so at least I know what I'm doing. If I volunteer I wont eat until 10pm tonight and then will go to bed but I decide to go home I'll nap and avoid food as well so either way it should be a lower day today. I'm gonna try not to drink as well, despite increasingly high stress levels.

I have my Grama coming to stay all weekend so steps are likely to be high but food probably not amazing.. We are ordering pizza on Friday but I'm going to order a thin crust small one with a salad or something. I'll try and do the best I can!!
 
Kudos to you for putting in so many hours AND volunteering but take care of yourself please! 1900 healthy calories are a lot better than 1500 crappy ones in my book and they'll still let you lose weight so well done :)
 
Hi Hana. Don't crash & burn sweets. I hope you had a quiet evening & recharged your batteries xoxo
 
Thanks girlies - I went home from work early and slept until dinner and then ate and went back to sleep. Still did 15,000 steps during my work day though so really pleased. Steps are consistently high at the moment. Ate far too much at dinner but missed lunch so think calories worked out to around 1800. Will check in over the weekend xx

I´m just going to leave this here...
 
Yet again I have been BEASTLY this weekend. I ate some fucking gross pasta at this restaurant last night and then was sick when I got home..which may have had something to do with the 6 glasses of wine I had... It was pesto linguine which I usually love but they served it with fries (seriously...pasta and chips?) and walnuts and feta cheese? Was fucking bizarre. But I was so boozy that I had to soak it alllll up so I ate it all, got a taxi home, smoked a cigarette and then was sick everywhere. What a stupid Sunflower.

Today I feel like assbutt and will not be moving from the sofa. My friend brought me some senna tea which basically just makes you shit through the eye of a needle for a day every time you drink it so I've drunk a cup of the tea and am awaiting death by poo and writing on here. Steps were good all weekend, did a long walk this morning and yesterday did 15,000 steps walking around the Marines Museum in Southsea. I'm doing some meal prep for the week now and will do a healthy shop. The drinking needs to stopppp. I can NEVER just open a bottle and have a glass, always end up finishing the whole thing so I'm spunking 600 calories on wine every other day which is just stupid. I associate it when "de-stressing" but actually, I have healthier ways of destressing (like SEX, mwhahahahaaha) so it's all a bit of an excuse for quite an unhealthy relationship with my beloved grapes. Going to avoid drinking tonight and do some reading about cutting down. I do Dry January every year so maybe I need to do that for December to kick start some healthier habits.

The walnuts and feta I can see (pesto is traditionally made with some sort of nut - often pine nuts - and cheese - often parmesan) so I can see how that makes sense. HOWEVER - serving FRENCH FRIES (or chips) with pasta is just WEIRD. And, WRONG.
 
18,000 steps and 1650 calories yesterday. Horrendous day at work so not had much time to post - it's been very busy!
 
Thanks LaMa.

It has been a very busy few days - I spent 8 hours on a train yesterday to go to Wales and back but still managed 13000 steps so was pleased. Calories for yesterday were 1300. I managed to avoid alcohol last night and the night before so that felt pretty awesome. Not weighed in yet but will over the weekend. Got volunteering tonight so Yank making dinner... (so much fear...). Hope everyone is having a good week!
 
Ten times as many steps as calories sounds very slimming though it might drive me to binge. Well done on no alcohol!
