Had lunch which consisted of a jacket potato with a 3 bean chili, along with a pint of beer. We went to Goblets wine bar in Southampton. Very reasonably priced very good food. On the way back I waivered. I was going to buy a cake but remembered my promise from earlier. Then I was [...]

… 213 lbs, can’t believe it, that’s 4 pounds less than last Saturday. Got to keep this up. Went for a great cycle ride this morning (after I had cleaned up the half eaten pigeon the cat’s had brought in, nice.. at 5:15 in the morning) Cycled nearly 14 miles. See the route here Burnt [...]
I didn’t need a maple and pecan danish for my breakfast yesterday but I felt a pull towards the bakers when I went down to move the car. I was too weak to resist the pull. I also didn’t need the vanilla slice I had at lunchtime. For those who don’t know what a vanilla [...]
….. I’ve got lots to do so was in the office before 7:00. Lot’s to do normally equals stress which normally equals excessive food intake. Look out stomach and look out scales. Got to reeeeeeesist.

Early morning cycle ride this morning. See the route here. 1719 calories burnt so should not have to watch what I eat too much.
The surprise was that I ate fewer calories than I burnt yesterday. And that’s even despite my son serving strudel for desert. Here’s my summary for the day
Rhetorical question, no need to answer. Went for a walk lunchtime as I was on an errand. Because I had a good walk I thought I would treat myself to a chip butty. Not many chips so not too calorific, I reckon about 500 calories in all. I also popped in the COOP to buy [...]
Slept reasonably well but then I needed to because I was absolutely bloody knackered. Today’s going to be a tricky day for the diet, as every day in the office is. I didn’t go to the gym as I try to on a Monday as I knew I would be tired. What that means is [...]
