Why is it that as soon as you've finished a diet or fitness boost, your brain tells you one of two things.
It either says: You've done it! Superb! You can now eat what you want!
Or it says: As soon as that third grape touches your mouth you'll put on eight stone.
The truth is somewhere between those two it's just your brain doesn't let you know that.
The brain can be a shit sometimes.
So yes, it was the first day off the diet. While we didn't indulge with a bucket of chocolate topped with chips, we did bring back some extra fruit and meat.
I have made changes to my diet.
Gone is the lovely ham I used to eat and in exchange I have turkey. The dry meat.
The cabbage soup has made me consider everything I eat.
Even if that was the only thing to take from the experience, that's an excellent thing to gain.
While it won't stop the odd binge it will stop the regular treats. Good for me, good for the weight.
An app is helping us keep track of calories so what I have to do now is the fitness side.
It's here I have to make a confession.
I cannot ride a bike.
A few posts ago I said that cycling wasn't an option just yet.
Well, it's because I can't cycle.
Oh I can get on a bike, but I'm a bit of an expert of falling over again and again.
So, before I turn 30 in a few months, I want to learn.
Wish me luck.
