Not such a good day today... 2 years ago

I ate a healthy breakfast, but for lunch I had pizza (but just a portion, not a whole one or anything) then for dinner a falafal sandwich. I also had, ahem, two sorbet cones. And I hardly drank any water today. Hangs head in shame.

But I did walk a lot around the city today, so that should go some way towards repairing the damage. I find this goal sometimes conflicts with my goal of making the most of my time here – there are so many new foods/restaurants that I want to try but I hold back a lot of the time because I don’t want to overdo the calories. While losing weight is my most important goal, I still want to enjoy the food here. And really, I eat healthily and exercise a lot during the week, so there’s no reason why I shouldn’t take myself out to lunch or dinner at the weekend. This goal shouldn’t be achieved by completely sacrificing other pleasures.

I agree--

you’ll establish a more sustainable routine for maintaining a healthy weight if you enjoy a special treat once in a while!

Generally, it sounds as if you’re doing quite well with this.

Cheers Ruth...

I had been doing well with this, but slipped a bit in the last few days. I just weighed myself and got a huge shock…I’ve put on weight, and seeing all the unhealthy food I ate translated into pounds has put it into perspective for me – it’s not worth it! I will have to work really hard this week to make up for my deviant behaviour. Still…I’ll just breathe and start again tomorrow.
