THE CC DIET: TEMPERED SUCCESS. THIS WEEK'S WEIGH-IN

 

After losing three stones in three months, losing seven inches off my waist, this week has been tough:

• Beat daily Cs target on one day, but only one day
  
• Previous weight loss has been helped by two major fits of exercise a day, but only managed that on two days.  Bad weather or circumstances. Ultra-early sundown certainly isn't helping
• Nectarines now out of season.  Braeburn apples may be the best snacks substitute, but discovered late in the week
  
• Feeling down with this lockdown, which should have been shorter and sharper.  The lockdown won't be getting any decent results for the country despite much pain.  Musical activities little chance of re-opening.
• Brexit talks stalled, as expected.
  
• International travel restrictions look set to continue into the New Year, blowing my Christmas plans out of the water to escape Brexit
  

So on six days my evening self-control has disappeared.  Comfort food.  A pound put back on.  There was always going to be setbacks.  It's how I now respond.

I am encouraged by hearing of a lady who has lost 8 stones.  So it's back to 48Cs a day, exercise or not, to lose another 3 stones.  Now the tough must get going!

WHAT ABOUT YOU?

I love my food, which is why weight loss action had become necessary.  Frankly, if I can lose weight, so can anyone.  That includes you.  Do you want to give it a go?

Here's the introduction and simple principles to get started.
