Drive Thru Madness and Me
Posted by Becky
This week I seem to be breaking all of my dieting rules. I’ve avoided breakfast, I’ve snacked instead of eating regular meals and today, I went through the drive-thru at Mcdonalds when I was peckish and got myself a “snack” (all 350 calories worth!). I ask myself: what is the point of eating nutritious but small meals when you are just going to get some greasy rubbish later on? I should have eaten properly at lunchtime.
Right, rant over. Time to get back to dieting.

It’s hard not to feel like “I don’t want to have to do this”
I notice you go under 1000 calories regularly – 900 was a breaking point for me. I could do it for a day or two and then I went off the rails. You only had 1200 cal, so you did fine. But it is maybe a case of being a bit too strict with yourself over all?
