*sigh* I have a confession..
It isnt one bad incident.. I have made a discovery!
I am a picker, and if i am not careful.. i will go back to wearing big knickers!
I did not realise that i did this. Often i have heard my consultant talking about people who 'forget' they ate somthing, or who graze without realising. Despite writing a food diary, every single day.. i have discovered i am one of these people.. and as i genuinly didnt realise i did this.. i don't know when i must have started, and thus when it really began to affect my weight losses.
yesterday for example.. (from what i can recall..)
i had two alpens and a fruit salad for breaky.. however i also forgot about the corner of white toast and butter i bit off before handing to OH..
i also forgot about the tiny peice of kfc popcorn chicken i popped in my mouth before i got back to the table in the mall with my diet coke and home made fruit salad.
.. and then, whilst waiting for my homemade syn free cod and chips with mushy peas to be ready.. i ate 4 slices of pepporoni and then some crust off the dominoes pizza that my family were celebrating my mums 50th with.
I guess because i plan every single breaky, lunch and dinner of my week, i eat whats on there and think nothing else of it, unless i specifically eat somthing else.. .. its the little things i pop in my mout without thought.. i mentally note them at the time as being off plan, but do not write them down. Although a bit here and a bit there, on a rare occasion will do no harm .. but without measuring quanities or thinking more thoroughly about it, i have no idea how many syns extra i am having, uncounted per day.
so, if its just me.. then heres my confession! - and if there anyone else who would like to join me in this confession..
or maybe your genuinly oblivious like i was.
so. Here we go. Im mid-week (weigh in on wed) but none the less, from now on.. im going to pay alot more attention to what my pesky hands are reaching for!
