When is enough not enough?

I haven't been keeping up with blogging this week! It's strange how when I am not working all my other routines seem to go awry. Anyway, I wasn't feeling too great yesterday . I think that is probably down to the fact that what I ate on Monday was not usual for me. My stomach really doesn't appreciate too much of a change! So I started the day with an egg and some crispbreads (HEb) as well as a banana. Apart from coffee I didn't eat anything else until mid afternoon. Then I had a jacket potato with some beans and 15g of cheese (half HEa). I followed that with a large bowl of berries.

During the late afternoon I did manage to eat a pear. Apart from that I had nothing until I ate dinner. I made sausage stew from the new magazine. Thankfully I halved the amount of chili as it was very spicy! I also had some sprouts and potatoes. That was followed by some strawberries and 0% yoghurt.


During the evening I again treated myself to a HiFi (6 syns). I didn't have the other half of my HEa.

This morning I started the day with banana on toast. (HEb) I intended also to have a yoghurt but promptly forgot. I didn't have anything else until around 3.00 pm when I made myself chicken and stir fry vegetables followed by a yoghurt and a pear.


I managed a HiFi in the afternoon (6syns). At weigh in tonight I maintained. It was a bit of a surprise as I feel this week I have lost inches. I thought I may have lost a little. Anyway, I have been thinking about it all this evening and I am wondering if I am eating enough. I listened to all that everyone else says they eat and then they seem to lose every week. Although I eat my HEb every day, I am not so consistent with my HEa and therefore I am not measuring it. I think I need to go back to my plans of two or three weeks ago and see exactly what I was eating. Something is going wrong somewhere. So, the question is: 'when is enough not really enough?'

Tonight I had my usual jacket potato with beans and then some strawberries. I wish I could say that was it but it hasn't been! I have been 'grazing' on all sorts that I should not, so I think I need to go to bed and start afresh tomorrow!
