Have felt hungry today but have have limited what I ate as I need to cut down on feed days. My size 12's are feeling loose and I can get some size 10 skirts on although they are snug. Hopefully the scales will reflect this but I am less concerned about that now. As long as I get into my winter clothes as I cannot afford to replace them I have some favorite size 10 jeans I want to wear again and that is my target.
Suki cat has today washed herself for the first time in weeks and is eating her food as soon as I give it to her. She also fought me today when I gave her the medication.
Still nothing from the social worker about the latest assessment on my dad. Will have to hassle her tomorrow.
Visitors go tomorrow and hopefully life can settle down again.
Will try to pull back on what I eat again tomorrow.

I'm fasting today as I have had 3 day carb blow out (and probably the first binge in the last 90 days). I was expecting to feel ashamed of myself but strangely I'm not. I'm in the mode of "it's ok, just make sure you do three fasts this week".
I lost a pound last week - the first one in a whole month so I have probably undone all of the good work, so it's a good test for fasting as a WOE to see what happens when I next weigh in.
I have decided not to do the daily weigh in stuff any more. It dictates my mood for the day which is a complete waste of energy, and I was getting frustrated. I'm just going to go back to weekly (Saturday). Granted, I'm a bit scared to jump on the scales this morning and I'm sure that has something to do with it, but honestly, I'm none the wiser.
I last fasted on Thursday and did a 40 hour bulletproof coffee only fast as I did not eat again until Friday lunchtime. On the Friday morning, I had gained a bit on the scales, which is why I had only...

I’m just starting week 5, fast number 8 (I missed one over Easter) and although I have lost some weight & my clothes are starting to fit better it’s still a struggle to believe this is actually going to work for me.
Weight wise I don’t think I have loads to lose. I started at 11lb 8, and now at around 11lb 3 (bit heavier this morning after pizza for tea and not a very healthy weekend) so it does seem to be coming off, but this is kind of the weight I have fluctuated at over the past couple of years so it doesn’t feel as if it’s actually going to stay gone.
However my waist is bigger than it has every been (started at 38 inches) and not sure what my body fat is now but a while ago it was over 30% (33% rings a bell) so I’m at risk for lots of horrible diseases and I don’t look good in any of my clothes. While I wasn’t expecting the weight to fall off rapidly I was hoping that I’d start to see a bit more of a difference by now, so I thought I’d start a diary to record what I’m doi...

Well it's Christmas I suppose. I gained a pound this week, despite 5:2 (didn't manage 4:3) and 16:8. I'm surprised it's not more really given all the partying. Again another fast day broken yesterday with visitors turning up unexpectedly last night. Ah well, at least I did a 16:8.
I'm glad I weighed in as in many ways it means I will be extra vigilant over the next few days. Next weigh in will be Saturday which will be the true test.
Happy Christmas everyone and a big thanks to you all for reading my blog. You have all been so supportive and I could not have come this far without you cheering me on! I feel I have made many great new friends this year and for that alone I am so very grateful.
Here is to a healthy and slim 2014 for us all

Ok so I completed my first fast day yesterday I had porridge for breakfast and a plain omelette for tea. I surprised myself as I only had one small snack of a few carrot sticks and did not get tempted when the other half had a glass of wine.
I noticed that while my mind was occupied and I was busy (went for a long walk with my dog)it was surprisingly easy; it was only in the moments where I was not thinking or doing that I felt the odd hunger pang which soon went after drinking water.
Today the day after my first fast I do not wish to undo what I achieved yesterday, however, this has not been a conscious decision and to be honest has just happened naturally which I know must sound bizarre. so porridge for breakfast this morning and a bean and lentil stew for tea with a few carrot sticks thrown in for a snacks.
I have already been able to identify that I eat out of habit and not...
