Was feeling a bit off the last day or two culminating in me entirely missing two day’s updates. I’ve not been feeling at all right but discussions with the family have made me realise I’m still not 100% over covid. After all, it’s only been a couple of weeks since I thought I was dying … More Lost a day.

Can’t say I’ve been perfect but yesterday I *did* try. I had the shake, a small salad for lunch, and some curry in the evening followed by a small wrap and an apple. My weight dropped a little to 148.3 kilos, but I still don’t feel I’m moving properly in the right direction. I’m hoping … More Still trying.

Yes, the operation is scary, but that’s not the problem. What’s wrong is that I’ve somehow got entirely “off the boil” and I’m finding it harder each day to keep my food intake down to the level it’s supposed to be. In fact, I’ve all bar abandoned any pretence that I’m following the diet. Whatever … More It’s Really Scary

And here we go again. My insides finally functioning properly, and my weight is still way higher than it ought to be at 150.1 kilos but better than yesterday. I’m feeling *much* better than I’ve done for a couple of weeks and am even off to the shops for supplies. None are urgent as such … More Again?

So yesterday I made a real effort to stick to the diet again. And to a large extent, I did keep both calorie intake and bulk to a low level. Having done that, I really expected to have made serious inroads to the weight increase I noted from Friday. However… not only did that not … More Odd Readings?

Ok, did I eat sensibly yesterday? Well, of course, I didn’t. I ate almost anything I could get in my mouth. I started with the shake, then moved on to two eggs, baked beans and tomatoes. I can’t recall just what else I ate, but whatever it was, it was waaaay too much. In fact, … More Why Do I Bother?

I was intending to ‘go for it’ again… again. Didn’t work. I’m still sick as a pig so I’ve gone back to eating for a day or two to keep me functioning. I’m totally exhausted despite sleeping pretty well for days. People are telling me it’l last at least three weeks… maybe more. I’ll just … More Gave Up Again

Not literally ‘on a bike’ yet, that’ll have to wait a few months, but I *am* starting to recover properly and the weight is, again, moving in the right direction. Ok, a drop of 0.8 to 148.9 kilos isn’t massive, but better than it might be if I was still on the takeaway rubbish I … More Back On My Bike!

So been quiet in here for a few days. I’ve had Covid and I feel like crap. My weight has neither gone up nor down despite the amount of food I’ve eaten to keep my metabolism capable of fighting the illness. I’ve had anti-virals, painkillers, cough medicine… and it’s still affecting me. As is the … More Covid, Covid, All fall down

So I tell myself “Let’s get back to some serious dieting!”, and the first thing I do is have a Burger and Onion rings from Hungry Jacks for lunch… followed up by tacos that I’ve ordered for dinner. I’m telling myself this is the last day to do that. I’m starting to feel *much* better, … More Oh Good Grief
