Healthy lunch in the office

Relatively Healthy Lunch In The Office

Since I started this diet regime back in January I have changed my eating and shopping habits quite dramatically. Previously my lunch on work days (Monday to Friday) was a roll or possibly a salad plate from the corner shop. They do absolutely fantastic salads, but the really tasty parts are really heavy ie. coleslaw [...]

Over the last couple of days I’ve been misbehaving quite a bit. I haven’t been sticking to my diet as strictly as I should and I feel quite guilty, though I also feel like I lack motivation. I’ve eaten things that I know I shouldn’t eat and earlier this evening I was very very tempted [...]

Weight Fluctuations

When I came back from the US I was quite annoyed with my progress. I’d gained weight. I wasn’t imagining it – my weighing scales was telling me that I’d put on over a kilo. However a couple of days later I’d “lost” it again (or most of it anyway). That was bizarre. I’m now [...]

Post Florida Diet Post-Mortem

  Last week I was in Florida for a work related event. I had been worried about eating while “on the road” and unfortunately my fears were more than justified.   I weighed in this morning and I’ve gained over 1kg, which is NOT good. Whether that is due to alcohol or food, or simply [...]
