Little Miss Binge came back last night :'( Feeling a lot more down than usual lately for no particular reason (I suffer from depression/anxiety), think its the change of the seasons. Its a vicious circle and last night I just had a big old cry to my other half, who I think is seriously drained from the whole situation.
Worried about weigh in tonight now and now have the added pressure of going with my mate. Going to be embarrassing. I really need something that's going to snap me out of this mentality, not just for the diet sake but for my general well being.

I think you should maybe have a chat with you C Lily, see if she can offer some pearls of wisdom?
I hope you're ok babe - I know a lot of people seem down recently due to the weather/seasons xx

Stayed to group. Consultant- "I'm worried about you". Me - "Me too."
I had a massive ramble about how I didn't know what to do, the depression, the bingeing, the fact I know every nice recipe and I don't need advice from group because I know what works. I had a bit of a breakdown to be honest and apologised to the group after as I hate people that talk for ages haha! She said that I need to take positives out of everything - think of an NSV everyday. As she said, I was on plan for half of the week and if I hadn't I could've gained more like I have in the past. The fact I tried is something. I find it so hard to look at things like this but I have to try. I don't know what more to say really, I don't feel like I have a new found motivation or spring in my step but it was nice to jut rant about how annoying I am. There I am telling people about all these soup recipes and then it gets to me and I've gained, they're probably all like "well soups clearly don't work love". Ha oh well Just going to try again. Gym tonight.
Thursday EE day:
Breakfast:
Pineapple chunks (S)
Mullerlight vanilla yog
Tea with milk (HEX A) and sweetener
Lunch:
Soup - Leeks (S), Onions (S), Carrots (S), Potatoes, Swede (S), Chilli (S)
Apple (S)
Banana
Grapes
Dinner:
2x glazed pork steaks
Broccoli (S)
Green Beans (S)
100 ml Gravy (1.5)
Other:
Ham sandwich (HEX B) with BBQ sauce (1)
Crunchy claw crisps (5.5)
Hot chocolate (2) with EL whipped cream (1)
HEX B To be confirmed
Total syns: 11

Hi Ya today's another day and your menu looks spot on. Hadn't thought about hot chocolate with EL whipped cream - sounds like a very nice treat
Thank you. Going to try and up my superfree more now as well as an extra boost. And it really is! I normally have a Flump for (1.5) too, might add it tonight, see how I feel

Sorry to hear your depression has been bad have you ever tried therapy/counselling? Really helped me when I was in a really dark place, helps you find the route of the problems rather than covering it up with food/comfort eating etc. Can take a while to find the right therapist though, a lot of people get put off by a bad experience with someone yhat didnt work for them. Hope you feel better soon, enjoy the spooky fog, at least a bit more exciting than rain, eh? X

Sorry to hear your depression has been bad
I did CBT therapy for about 8 weeks back when I was first diagnosed and I got a lot out of it but after a while I felt we were just repeating everything. Plus, it meant I had to leave work early a lot and I worried about losing my job so it seemed silly that my supposed "cure" for anxiety was causing me it! Maybe it wasn't the right person, I think I need to try and keep myself busy, even if I don't want to and that will help a great deal. x

I wish I could help
I know it's not ideal but you can ALWAYS message me if you'd like to talk about anything, sometimes off loading onto a stranger helps.
As someone that has suffered from major depression & anxiety for a very very long time I know how difficult it can be. My best advice is to focus on looking after yourself and be as kind to yourself as you can be.

Good things about yesterday:

Resisted the several tubs of Pringles AND Ben and Jerrys (1 spoon def counts as resisting imo!)
We went for an hour walk
I drank at least 2 litres of water before starting on Diet Coke.
Bad things about yesterday:

So yeah star week is here! After being reminded Ben & Jerrys exists thanks to last night I was seriously craving it! We had to go to Tescos to get a few bits and All I wanted to do was raid the choc isles. I resisted though despite my stupid boyfriend buying this huge choc brownie cake (which I've told him he cant eat in front of me) and one of thier Chock a block bars. Instead I bought some of those mini mars bars and asked him to hide them so I only have access to one a day. So heres today's food:

2x toast (HEX B)
2x Light Choices sausages (2)
