Hi Trudy, just caught up and have loved reading how you're getting your head round conso (with sensible advice from Sara!). I've just suddenly washed up in conso myself after a v unexpected weigh in today and am clinging to your every word for help and inspiration!

My absolute biggest worry is the yoyo thing. I want new, solid, ingrained sensible, relaxed eating habits but am petrified I'll slip into a cycle if gaining a few pounds then going back to cruise, rather than managing it smoothly. Keep inspiring me please!

All your horse travels sound suitably exhausting! Glad you had a great time in Edinburgh - I lived there for 15 years before moving back to London and still think of it as home. Great city, enjoy yourself and good luck with the conso rollercoaster! Jx

So arrived in Derbyshire and journey all good. Did a shopping trip to sainsbury's in the lorry to top up supplies! Felt v v hungry today for some reason so taken the good doctors advice and eaten the house!!!!
Off to chatsworth house tomorrow, my boss has lots of sculptures there , the biggest one is out of order and waiting for repair but lots of other stuff to see. Been there several times for the country fair but never been around the house!!!
B- eggs/ toast
L - ham/ 2 muffins/ apple/ skinny latte
D - salmon and veg with soy/ginger/ stuffed peppers with mince/quark/Parmesan / 2 muffins
Again glad of conso today, really enjoyed everything I ate today!!! Adding Parmesan to stuff just makes such a difference and 40gms is loads of it!

Hi Trudy, I am following your diary with great interest as I am now at the cons phase too.
It's a bit scary as we know the cruising works, but to add other foods....as yet unsure !!
Hope your fabulous success continues
