No change at 74.3kg which is better than expected! Last 2 weeks has been lots of stress, travel and rubbish food!
Keep at it all

Rituals! Help pass the time/ miles whilst looming at the scenary... On my old commute there was one hill that when I got to the yop I'd make a 'Whuh' yell in relief / exhaustion. The huh became more and more Tom Jones in nature so the exlamation then became "WHuh, Tom Jones" The overall ye...

Finding the LCHF discussion very interesting.

I've noticed a gradual change in my attitude towards less than heathly food. (I'm avoiding the word treats) now when considiring whether not to consume, my first thought is no longer "it's just the one, it'll be fine" - I'm no longer thinking of that food in isolation but now think of the ...
