Food Diary - Where am I Going Wrong? Help Needed... :) Red & Green Days X

[Lillyxx]

So sorry about your gain, such a shame. Like others have said it is good to hear you being so positive.
You are doing so well.

I had a small gain this week, but I know I overdo it on the portions. I am rather a foodaholic but my head is in the right place. Yours certainly is Lily. Keep going xxx

Thanks Doreen x I am the same, i need to cut down on my portions as well, its definitely something i need to work on! Lol. But your right as long as you know where your going wrong and know what you need to do, you will be fine. Hope it comes off next week for you xx

I knowwwww, i just love carbs Im useless haha xx

Oh wow I did know they did a dark chocolate one, I bet that would be so good with porridge. The normal almond does have its own taste, i really like it though, its really creamy I find, i prefer it so much more to milk, i wouldn't have normal milk anymore anyway, its perfect in porridge, just makes it that bit more creamier, if you try it let me know!! Hope your week is going good too hun xx

Thank you I work on the computer all day, so its a bit easier for me because i just keep a notepad open all the time and write down as soon as i have eaten so i don't lose track or anything, could maybe try doing the same on your phone or something like that?x

Food sounds lovely Lily, don`t know when I last had an indian meal.

Over syned today but I'm ok with it, I need to get the birthday cake out of the house, I have no control when I have nice things in the house & this is the first time we have had cake in the house in 9 weeks and I have just proved to myself why we cant keep any close by haha. Cake is definitely my down fall. I have done a full red day though which Im happy about so even though I have over synned on cake, hopefully that will counter act it a little.

There is only 3 slices left and that is all wrapped up now for my boyfriend, so I wont be going near anymore!!!! Lol xx
