Getting bored with logging my meals so I'm going to post successes and failures (though I'm not keep on that particular f-word). Anyhoo, Sunday was ok, with 3 structured meals and a few snacky bits and bobs.

I've eaten more fruit and veg today than usual - it's just what I fancied. It's now 4pm and I'm pretty hungry. This is the point I'd usually be reaching for a junk food fix but I've decided to embrace my hunger and use it to motivate me to cook a really nice dinner.
Oh bum - after all that, I ate a carrot cupcake and some toast in the evening after dinner. What I am NOT going to do is use this as an excuse to overeat tomorrow, however.

2 successes in a row - particularly pleased about yesterday as I work late on a Wednesday and usually come home and eat whatever I can get my hands on.
