Apparently people don’t have much of an appetite in hot weather. Who are those people? Introduce us. I want to know. Cause I eat no matter the weather. Therefore the first week after the recent trip away to Turkey sucked from the diet point of view – there was just no diet. As for exercise – come on, in this heat (UK). I’ve just about enough energy sit upright on the sofa.
Last two days haven’t been so bad though. I’ve turned the hungry – versus – thirsty switch back on, finally. That was a long time coming. So now, once again when I feel that first pang of hunger – I reach for tea, water, cordial, coconut milk, anything liquid other than food. Result being – 2 days and I’m back to my pre-holiday weight!
The problem is – when that happens, I then let go off the reigns a bit, it’s like “oh, great, I have room to play with, let’s have chocolate, ice-cream, extra chips”!!! argh
The chocolate / sugar thing – still not reached the goal. Well, I say that. In the last month or so (excepting the weekend away), I’ve had few odd days where there was no bread eating, or no chocolate/biscuit/cake eating, or cheese eating. So I am doing a lot, lot better than months ago when I first took on this challenge.
Now, if only I could combine a no sugar-bread-cheese days into the same day for like at least 3 days on the trot. Wouldn’t that be a win.
Good luck to me!!!!
I have, just the other day though, signed up to a veg-box delivery scheme, in the hope to introduce more vegetables into my diet, and reduce the sugar and processed food intake. Let’s see how long that lasts.
In a meantime, I hope this weather subsides. I can’t take the heat any more, not even to go for an evening stroll.
Hate To Exercise
