Pukka Love Blend (bright pink box) is beautiful or anything by Heath & Heatherā¦ All very lovely teas. Blackcurrant & echinacea (canāt remember brand, supermarket tho not a health shop exclusive one!) is an interesting flavour & very good for this time of yearā¦ Cold & flu season, echinacea is good for warding that stuff offā¦ It increases your white blood cell count to boost your immunity.

welp. gaining weightās a pain but ah well Iāll just be consistent; I canāt gain weight indefinitely if Iām not bingeing
Iāve literally eaten SO MUCH today so I have no idea if I counted my calories right bc I feel way more full than 1200+kcal haha. But could be, since itās mostly high volume food.
my Fitbit seems to be giving me lower calorie burns since I changed the strapā¦could it be that Iām in fact burning less than I thought I was?
Going out for a tapas dinner with boo tonight! Am gonna take this as a challenge to gain experience from. May gain tmr, hopefully not til more than 49.6 haha. Will try to make the best decisions.

Other Observations:
Havenāt had really regular BMs
WADAFARK how did I gain 1.4kg overnight?! I didnāt even binge and even though I was a bit more full than usual I didnāt purge either. Ugh. I donāt even think I surpassed my calories out by much! Okay that really sucks because I tried so hard .-. Might reduce my meals out haha so hard to count restaurant calories. Itās annoying bc it feels like itās been 4-5 days of consistently trying to eat well, exercise, and not bp and then bam one night out (making good choices and I swear it was barely overeating) and itās back to above 50ā¦this is one reason why bp is so tempting lel. Sorry for the rant! Iāll be fine haha just mildly frustrated.
Having a formal dinner celebrating being halfway through my degree later! Gonna think through that so I minimise the risk of bp-ing ahaha.

Other Observations:
So thankful I can fall back on Huel especially in times of being emotionally drained and not wanting to have to deal with binge urges :ā)
Outcome of consulting my psych re weight loss:
Iām still ~5-6 months off anyway
Lose weight (~2-3kg) gradually and re-evaluate as we go along
Itās fine if it doesnāt become obsessive
Trying to control your body isnāt inherently bad (heck we all do it to varying extents)ā¦unless it takes over your life and you sacrifice your health
Tl;dr itās fine, worrying about it more & being more obsessive can become the problemā¦so Iām not gonna and donāt wanna worry too much about it for now. Weāll see how it goes in a coupla months! @ChristinaT

today wasnāt the bestā¦
