Ever tried to put a banana on your plate in an upright position in oder to fit in as much food as possible?
Sad but true.
At the moment I am having a very hard time complying with the rules so I try to bend them as much as possible just to feel a bit less out of control.

Hi there, Bright Angel,

I think if I used pounds as a system of measurement 150 pounds (or rather 149 in order to stay below the magic number :lol:) would be special to me. Since my scales only speak Kiloian in my case the number is 69 or even 69.9, ie anything below 70kg. I do not look for this ...

Negative tracking is not very fruitful sometimes, it's been a couple of days since my last check-in. But at last a fail , today, just yet. Less than one hour after a big lunch I just had to have a tiny bit of cheese which had been left on the breakfast table and some grapes. And since a red day ...

My weekend was quite active, Saturday was village cleaning day (tidy town day?) so I was basically doing squats for two hours and on Sunday I worked in the garden and went for a run.

I figured having one this morning was not going to interfere with my No S habits. I haven't had a chocolate milk in months. So I bought it and enjoyed it, guilt free.

No BS , rest assured that everything I write is dead serious. I am an expert in liquoricy. There are two kinds of violet liquorice, very small hat-shaped black ones and violas , purple sugar coated ones. Most people say they taste like soap. I say that this is just the point.

My next steps:
1. Start running at least 3x week to begin with.
2. Continue working towards 100% compliance on N days.
3. Continue to keep all temptations out of the house (so also no baking).
4. Work towards more moderate portions.

This is a very sound plan. I think if you stick to 1-3 you ...
