Well done @Wendy_Shepherd!! Keep going!

Also, not sure if anyone has mentioned it or if you use it but try downloading My Fitness Pal- you arent sure on some of the calories you have taken in therefore this will help you as there are sooo many foods already saved with their correct nutritional value. Its super helpful.

I suggest this as i’m sure 3 tbps of Houmous and 3 rice cakes are more than 100cals- isnt a rice cake like 20 cals itself? And because Houmous is made from chick peas- although healthy fats- can still quite have a high calorie content. :slight_smile:

Thanks for flagging this, have had a look and adjusted accordingly.

Thanks, I’m currently using Samsung Health on my phone, will take a look though :slight_smile:

Spent 4 hours hanging wall paper that tracker didn’t know about. Worked up quite a sweat, so must have burnt at least 2 or 3 calories there!

3 mins running. Aim to add 30 seconds each day for first week or so, then add a minute each day, and gradually increase.

Today I’ve felt a lot better than I have in months. I don’t know why this is, could be because I’m off work pending an occy health appt, could be because I’m in the process of coming of citalopram with a view to trying a different head med, or could be something else entirely. Whatever it is, I hope it’s at least semi permanent. I feel more alert, positive, motivated, healthy, the list goes on.

Thanks, I think it was a bit of a “blip”, I’m definitely on the up again now x

Yes hang in there I know what it’s like. When I have a ’ blip ’ I just tell myself it’s a ’ blip ’ and to try and ride it out. Easier said than done I know. It sometimes helps when other people say it to me when I am not thinking straight, gives you a boost. I’ve been on Venlafaxine for 15 years. Hope your feeling better soon

Thank you, I was hoping to be swapped onto Venlafaxine myself, but instead I’ve been given sertraline. Will have to wait and see. Citalopram just not cutting it anymore!

•Coffee huel 450kcal
•*carrot cake huel 550kcal?
•mint chic huel 450kcal
•slice carrot cake

3scoops vanilla huel, 400ml water, 100ml soya milk, a small handful of raisins, ditto walnuts, 1tbs brown sugar, 1 small carrot, sprinkle cinnamon. A friend bugged me into making a carrot cake for her, so I suddenly have all these evil ingredients in the house again. Brown sugar, icing sugar, flour… I’d just managed to deplete my baking cupboard, too. :persevere:

Of course.
