Just weighed myself and...

...I've lost 200g in the last 7 days, so I can still do the laps once a day but I'm only 150g into the safe zone now and I'll be having protein shakes each lunchtime which is only 108 calories, so I'm gonna be relying on the me-friendly creamy hot choccies even more this week which isn't a good thing, but rather that than going underweight again.

Mornin' all

Well, I've woken up feeling like I haven't slept again, but that's pretty normal for me.

My blood pressure was slightly low for me again this morning, I've swallowed my 9 morning pills with my first glass of water of the day and remembered to set off the monthly virus scan, so time to go and weigh myself after I've put today's to-do list together now, then finish off reading the book then bring my rubbish and recycling in when it's been collected I reckon.

TTFN

Nite nite orl

Tomorrow morning I've gotta remember to refill my squash bottle, bring the rubbish and recycling containers in and run the monthly virus scan instead of the daily one, but for tonight I'm absolutely wiped out so I'm gonna sign off and crawl straight on up to bed.

I'll see you all in the morning.

Nite nite orl

Today's (27th July 2025) lunch photo

For my second meal of the day, I had 4 slices of fruit loaf and "Buttery" spread with a 500ml glass of water.  It's back to the liquid lunches next week and possibly a drinking chocolate for breakfast if I'm safe enough to make it, but we will have to wait and see.

Here's today's lunch photo:

Just...

...taken the fruit loaf out of the freezer so lunch will be at 12.40pm today and I can't wait!

Today's (27th July 2025) breakfast photo

My breakfast today was something I've never had before - chocolate Tiffin -  which were yummy but have seriously dried my mouth out now.  I also had a 500ml glass of water to wash it down with but it hasn't at all lol

Here's today's breakfast photo:
