Onwards & Downwards: June 2019

Last month's thread is here.

With summer just around the corner, is the warmer weather helping you eat less? I know us gnomes find it hard to eat in the blistering heat!

Cheers SpEd.

Were that each day was warm, but overcast seems common still. But I've temporarily have another reason to not want to eat much yet; but that's changing.

[ummmm]

I am in Spain and have never eaten so much in my life.

Thanks Ed.
I take it that you’re on the mend OG. That’s good news.
Ummmmm. I hope you’re enjoying the wonderful fish and salads that you can get there....have you tried the fried green peppers? Even an every day omelette is better than I can make here. I’m drooling just remembering. Enjoy.

[ummmm]

Fish and salad everyday. It was mussels and squid for dinner last night. i'm not used to eating 3 regular meals a day. My portions are small though, there was a young child at the table next to us and his portion was bigger than mine.

Ummmmm all I can say is hmmmmmmmmm

A day late but worth it just a little over a pound .I have cut down on biscuits .which is my downfall and cakes .if I take the packet through when I have a cuppa I will sneak an extra few but I just take 2 through and I don't go back for more .Must be all in the mind but it works .

[Old_Geezer]

1.4 lbs down here too.
More than I expected so suspect it'll slip back up a bit next time.

[xstitcher]

Pat on the back to you and OG Wendilla! Wish I could say the same.

[xstitcher]

A wet good morning all, my scales just went up a digit...hmmmmm. Hope things are going better for you

[Old_Geezer]

Ah, so long as it's just the one kilogram.
Was expecting to be back and weighing myself this morning, but two days ago I got an e-mail warning of a mail delivery for yesterday or today, so still stuck waiting for it :-(

[wendilla]

I have a good idea before I weigh so its stay the same ,

[Old_Geezer]

Holding a bunch of helium balloons ?

[xstitcher]

A genial idea OG.

[Old_Geezer]

Hmm... seem to have gone up a bit. Unsure why.
Being given too many kilocalories and grams of saturated fat to eat I suspect :-(

[wendilla]

Not a very good week despite having a few salads . its not the salad that is the problem its the celery and nut dressing and the few chips I have along with it .So the pound I lost a couple of weeks ago is nearly back .

[xstitcher]

Good morning all, I almost forgot that it was today hmmmm! I’m down a pound since last week and very pleased with myself. Are you totting out the summer salads? A nice low fat Greek yogurt or fraiche with your favourite herbs makes a good dressing, add bits of chicken, ham, prawns, bacon or steak and you have a nice summer meal.

[xstitcher]

Good morning all, well didn’t 3 normal sized scoops of ice cream just upset the apple cart. We were having a midsummer celebratory dinner hmmmmmm. It didn’t even taste as good as I thought it would. :-((

[ummmm]

I currently weigh myself about once every 6 months. Now I've been told I have to weigh myself every other day. I keep forgetting!!

[xstitcher]

Ummmmmm I write my weight down in a little diary book....it helps me to remember. Are you doing it because of water? I am.
