Ok starting a daily diary to see if it helps

Me: 53 years of age. KIT are my initials not my name. Mum of 3, mostly all grown...2 coeliacs and 1 anaphylactic! So food has been an issue for the last 24 years! Hubby and I looking forward to a child free home in the next few years! Live in New Zealand. Have lost 40kg successfully and maintained for 3 years.....now creaping back up and wish to stop the rot now. Since losing weight have taken up trail running. Have run a marathon and an ultra as well as a number of mountain races.

Monday: Shopping day, so I have eaten a a huge filling bowl of porridge.

I will report in tonight to say how the day went. I am aiming for 3 plates a day plus 1 dose of healthy exercise!

Tuesday.

Breakfast: porridge

Lunch: 2 slices homemade sourdough with hummus, tomatoes, and lettuce.

Supper: homemade cottage pie

Exercise: 7 km run, beach and estuary

Minor victory over habit. I was really hungry going into supper, and wanted seconds. But I didn't have any and it was fine. In fact it is now early Wednesday morning and I am still fine. Habit only. Once the food had a chance to hit my stomach, it was sufficient.

2 sucess days in a row...going for the third!

Wednesday. Success...third day in a row.

Breakfast: porridge
Lunch: left over cottage pie (a HUGE plate full, I was hungry after my run)
Supper: Dahl and rice.

Exercise. 2 hours running in the hills with Bonnie. Laters Spur, Mitchels track circuit. I had nothing but water on the run, though I carried food just in case. I think more than 2 hours running in the hills I will need to eat though. Thankfully my long run is normally on a Saturday!

Thursday....this is daughters 21st birthday....and therefore an S day I am sure!

That sounds absolutely lovely to me considering it was 107 today and humid to boot!

And I have spent most of today huddled in front of a warm fire. I ran 10km this morning in driving sidewards freezing rain straight off the sea.....
We need to blend this weather out!

Saturday. S day ( and just as well really....)
Went a bit silly. No exercise, hubby took dog out. Ate 3 meals plus about 3 real snacks on plates, a pot of nuts and seeds, 2 dark chocolate bars.....a hand full of this and just a bite of that.....

And felt bloated and lousy at the end of the day. Hum....can we learn from this!?!

Sunday. S day. Started well, 10km run on beach. Probably burnt some extra calories due to the cold!
Breakfast, porridge.
Lunch rolls, avocado and salad.
No snacks as yet, but planning a sweet after dinner tonight.

I felt the same way after my S day - bloated and yucky. I was just sitting here thinking about how I need to learn from that feeling.

I think that is what is so good about no s. We really get to come face to face with our own gluttony!

Sunday went well. I had desert after supper, and enjoyed it. Felt a lot better than Saturday!
