Who is joining?

I indulged in some sweets over Yom tov and my face is paying the price TMI

.
It’ll be lots of healthy salads this week and back to no added sugar.

I may add a bit of raw honey or coconut sugar (I don’t like artificial sweeteners) to my tea.

I hope to keep to it this week. Wish me luck please:)

This is the way I always eat
Plus I eat only 3 very satisfying meals a day
Not to brag but over Tishre I lost 6 lbs.
I didn’t eat different then I usually do except I picked fancier protein options.
And may I add I’m post menapausal so I don’t lose weight easily
True miracle
It was only Hashem

Almost perfect today except for a sliver of store bought gf cake, but literally a sliver, and a handful of puffins, but literally one handful. I didn’t read the ingredients on the sausage I had for supper, nor on the herring I ate for lunch, so I hope they didn’t have added sugar, but I ate negligible amounts of those things too. I had no sugar added pineapple sorbet to fix my sweet cravings. And just now a kiwi and a clementine.

I did not eat breakfast till about 3 pm, which consisted of chicken soup, eggs and a salad.

No noshing all day (which is my typical. Other than Yom tov when I allowed myself a rugela or some cake).

Going to eat dinner soon. Still have to figure out what... kids had leftover cholent.

So far so good for me today. Evenings are hardest, I get hit hard with the munchies and I’m also trying to be low carb so it’s a challenge.

That's me!
I gave in last night Sad

But so far today I've been okay b"H (sugar that is, I'm not even tackling carbs now, especially as I'm gluten free already).

I plan to brush teeth at 9pm tonight so hopefully won't be tempted...

Hi. I’m joining! Kids are all back to routine and I’m back to full time at work. During the day I’m fine, as I prep my meals before I leave to work. At night I find myself opening and shutting the “nosh pantry” too many times.
