A tiny bit of desperation is kicking in !! Made the mistake of weighing myself after a feast day - seem to have put on 1 lb this week
Though people have started commenting if I have lost weight (!!!!) but I really havent lost much yet ..
BREATHE ... and weigh again tomorrow .. This can't be a lost cause yet - I have 3 st to lose !!!!
BREATHE - BREATHE - BREATHE ...
(Note to self - destroy the weighing scales or hide them away !! )

..because today I am going to Blighty (England). In just over an hour I will load up my little yellow Smart car and head up to Calais over 400kms away! Oh and this is a fast day. For the first time in living memory I will not have a big bag of sweets in the car. I will not stop at a favourite service area for a cheese baguette. I will stop for a break and a black coffee and will have water and sugar free gum in the car. Not sure how this is going to work but today is a fast day and I do not want to change it. For me it is very important to have set days I stick to. I travel back next Monday which is also a fast day but at least I will know what to expect. I will visit the fasting today thread and let everyone know how it has gone. I am quietly confident.

I've barely had a chance to breathe and Thursday my ADF kinda went to poop. I ended up at about 800-1000 calories instead of 500. Friday I had a pretty regular up day and then I did two "semi-fasts" on satersay and Sunday to try to even things our. I had about 1000 calories on both days. The anxiety and stress I have been under this past week with all the working traveling and being sick has been overwhelming. But I'll cut myself
Some slack. It's a new week, it's an up day, and I have a free weekend to spend with my fiancé only 6 dad away! lol hopefully this week will seem like a breeze compared to last week. I am enjoying being up today but I'm starting to crave a lot healthier foods than I did in week 1. Don't get me wrong I ...

Read most of the book and ready to get rid of some fat. It may be a slow process but going for it. Hope weather clears up although snow forecast as the bike and golf are calling. Burn those calories

I fasted yesterday (Monday) and tried a new tactic - no breakfast or lunch saving my calories until evening meal. I think this will work much better for me as something to look forward to in the evening. Weight loss is slow - 1lb per week roughly but determined to keep going!
