Toad in the hole.  Oh wow.  So good.  I have paid the price.

I knew that binge was a bad idea!

Apparently it takes 100 days until you really lose weight.  Anything before that is temporary weightloss.  One big meal and you will wallop it back on.  After 3months the weight will really go down and stay off.  This has to be 3 months of consecutive dieting days.  By this time good eating habits should be the norm.

I was so thrilled with my excellent 9 lb loss that I decided to celebrate with a bingefest.  Oh dear.  It was so huge I couldn’t eat any dinner.

Three white doorsteps, with butter and Camembert, beans on toast with cheese, banana custard with sugar and cream, little gems, a bit more custard, anything else I could cram in and then cheese and biscuits later.  Oh dear.  I felt full for the first time all week.  It was lovely.

No nice things to eat.

179

But I have been absolutely GOLDEN so gaining weight is just not fair.
Bad mood.  Grrr.

178

A loss each week.  1.5lbs.

That registers 3 on SW but 6 since Christmas.

178

Ooooh this is better.  

179

At long blooming last.

silly Sunday

I still feel a bit sick.  OK Magnificent Monday I greet you.

180

I am bored of 180.  I think 178 would be more pleasurable in many ways.

180

Slimmer of the week.  Queen of all she surveys.  I ate cake.

180

One hundred and eighty - top darts score for me.  Four pounds down.
This time last year I was 174 - work to be done.  

181

Why I wake up all night long - sleep apnea.
Lose weight, buy a machine and take more exercise.
OK.

181

I now only have 17 to go to make it to my 20 lb first phase.  That will take me to base camp.

Alarm bells .... Tuesday lunch, not sure which Tuesday but there is a lunch coming up.
Kiddies coming down on 19th.  Usual fatted calves to be served.  At least I am Dry Januarying.  It will really really difficult but I will be iron willed.  

182

Well, at last I seem to have stopped gaining weight and actually this has only taken two days not the two weeks it feels like.  On a good note I haven’t felt hungry but I have felt very hefty and bloated.

I wish the horrible cough I have would depart.  That would make exercise a bit more appealing.

I still haven’t exactly worked out how to lose these 20lbs I want to shift.  Now 18.  

184

Day One was bloody perfect.  Well there was that cheese incident but apart from that it was very good indeed.  I am extra vast now.  Why?  Oh balls.

Look, a minimum of 4lbs must disappear before Friday.  Help!

2018

I feel like a heavyweight prize fighter entering the ring.  In the blue corner we have Mrs Fatso Blob Features weighing in at a staggering 184 pounds and in the red corner we have Food.  The crowd roar and the fight begins.

I am going to adopt the attitude of if I don’t want to get bruised I must duck the blows.  I can’t get out of the ring as I actually have to face food in some form, often.  I really don’t quite understand why anyone should need to seek help to not do something.  You don’t want to drink alcohol, just don’t drink it.  You don’t want to eat too much, just have less food.  I so wish it was that easy.  I will pretend it is.  Addiction isn’t a behaviour I know.

My resolutions:
Eat less, drink less alcohol, get up earlier, work more, less Facebook, no internet shopping, be tidier, spend less, finish things, take better care of self, dress better, exercise more and improve concentration.

His resolution:
Abolish Sober Monday.

I like his better.
