Diet disasters

 

So that's me with my sister's. I'm in the middle lol.

Well what a diet nightmare week! 

Firstly, I had a mental binge day. I just couldn't stop eating. I wasn't hungry and I wasn't bored. I was maybe feeling a bit low and I'm pretty sure I was trying to fill a big gaping hole. Obviously, food wasn't the way to go but I was blinded to it at the time.

Secondly, I then convinced myself I had diabetes. I thought my wee was smelling a bit sweet. One Google search later and I had diabetes. I asked my sister (a diabetes nurse) and the pharmacy for a wee stick to check my glucose levels. Though by the next morning I decided I had just imagined it all. And I certainly had no other symptoms. The worst thing is that even though one day I was really nervous that I had developed diabetes, the next day I ate my body weight in chocolate! I am utterly hopeless!

Thirdly, my phone brought up a 'on this day in 2012' photo. We'd gone to Ben Nevis and the pic was of me walking up a little bit of the mountain. Looking chubby and hot and worn out. Not a good look. I asked hubby if that's the way I look now. He said no, you're fatter now! Oh bloody great news! 

My dog is a diva! It was a lovely evening so we took a bottle of wine to share with next door in their garden. Libby came too, to see George. Everything George had, Libby wanted! If any of us made a fuss of George and gave him a pet, Libby would put her head between George and human and squeeze herself into the middle. Also George likes to steal things from the house and parade around the garden. This night it was a dustpan. Libby took it from him and she paraded around the garden instead. George got a huge lump of wood for the chimnea. Libby took it from him even though her little jaw could barely accommodate the log. Then she actually took a ball out of George's mouth!! So embarrassing. George is so laid back he's horizontal, which is just as well as Libby just helps herself! (It is quite funny to watch though).

Anyway I am really struggling to get back to plan, but I'm not giving up. Never will I surrender! Hopefully I'll have more encouraging news next week 😂

The reason people don't become what they want to be is because they are too attached to who they are.
