Day 86, blah blah blah

Morning all

Im having full blown week 1 craves again ( shakes head in despair) . My mouth is actually salivating, my tongue begging for a cigarette and the back of my throat craving is niggling away as well. BLAH , i really hope this goes soon.   Ive gone back to those early discussions in my head about how i could have just 1 cigarette without blowing my whole quit or at what juncture in the future will i definately have a cigarette.

I guess this is my punishment for having a few easier days. I keep Lori,s cycles in mind on days like today and she is correct in that these days are getting more distance between and easier to manage but they are HARD.

I will chose to walk it out and to enjoy that . I am blasting my step target every day and have added a bike ride or 2 each week to the agenda as well. The downside of the exercising is im waking at night with aching in my legs, so have to watch that balance so i dont get tired which is when the emotions kick in!! Does any one have advice for aching legs please?

My new addiction is also developing nicely and starting to take over the family too. I spent the whole day with both my daughters (both in their 20s!!) on sunday hunting Pokemon. We walked for miles together and laughed so much and had a lovely late afternoon meal in town with ice cream on a swinging bridge until our phones all died. Apparently im a very cool mum for embrassing the game 🙂

Weight loss update. ZERO, not 1 single lb!!!!

That is sooo unfair. I am walking loads, i am generally the most active i have been for years ( cheer) and i am eating much more sensibly and less of it, but im not losing weight. My body shape is definately changing but.....?

Sigh, i guess thats something else i ll just have to keep battling on with!! 

Onwards and upwards. Staying strong every day.

🙂
