Just been reading up on a few bits and it is that my exercise has increased which is why my numbers have increased.
I have moved back home and its a 30 minute walk to town and I also have a new job which is out of Harrogate so need to walk to get my bus!
Also at my new job i get proper breaks and they do fresh salad every day
Currently on a mid to ease myself back into it- have had that awful flu so drinking lots
One slight concern- off to Manchester for 2 days with friends next week but im going to enjoy myself and do a fasting day one day and 2 DDs/1 mid to counter act it. Saying that my eating habits are so different now we will see my portion size has really dropped!! Will reactivate MFP as i have been just manually working out. However I have a new phone so why not take advantage of it?
Just working it all out now with MFP, its been a while
will post back!

Ruth, you know what you are doing. You were the best at getting the most for your calories. I trust you will work it out. Congrats on a new job, hope it was the right circumstances as I remember u were having issues before.
I'm doing ok, had to step away from juddd. I have come to realise I'm just too greedy! I am calorie counting just now for the foreseeable future and will return to this way when I have better control of myself x

Yeah Im sure I will sort it out I do like to think about what im eating etc haha!
Yeah I now work in a 5* Hotel on the outskirts of Harrogate as a Reservations Coordinator and I am also training to be an accountant for them too. My life is changing lots! So so happy its untrue!
I know what you mean about unlimited eating it reminds me a bit of Slimming World, however I believe that its helped me and that my portion sizes and hunger have actually decreased. I don't eat breakfast at all because it makes me ill and I save my food intake generally until my dinner unless im off (like today!) I really enjoyed calorie counting but I actually found it took over my life in the end and I was constantly worried and terrified if I was caught without any info eg like an emergency takeaway!
I hope you come back soon I miss you t2g!

Of course I can!
theres many different ways you can do it but I do it this way.
On Monday Wednesday and Fridays I have under 500 calories for the day! I dont find it hard either!!!
On Tuesday Thursday Sat and Sunday I have 2000+. sometimes if I dont fancy a 2000+ day I will have roughly 1200 to be good for example if its totm or ive been out or on holiday etc.
I drink 2 litres of fluids a day too
Monday Wednesday and Friday are my down days and Tuesday Thursday Saturday and Sunday are my up days. The 1200 are my Intermediate Days.
I calorie count using My Fitness Pal on my Down days and I dont count at all on my up days. its strange because this has now become habit in my life my portion size has reduced and im nowhere near as hungry!
My actual numbers are 454 and just over 2200 you can check yours by going on the Johnson Up Day Down Day Diet website and these vary depending on age weight exercise gender etc.
its a good motivator because its only one day and your cravings and wants can be sorted and you arent dreaming of chocolate for months! And it works!!!!
Stopped coming on the site in august September time and ive maintained and lost 4lbs in that time and that never happens to me. im so happy all of my health problems have gone its the best thing I have ever done in my life.
