I have my 6 month probation meeting on Friday and all I want to say is I quit so the plan is to try and apply for another job this evening. I'm having pasta with veggies for dinner so that'll be lovely. 😊

We got my fellas Nan a double sized box of family circle biscuits for Christmas and she’s not even offered them round! Sacrilege!

I feel like absolute garbage. I'm physically and mentally totally drained. It might sound silly but what happened earlier really scared me. I can't keep eating like this, specifically or generally. I'm off to Aldi later to get some meat, fish, veggies, lentils, fruit, rice and potatoes and I'm going to cut out snack foods and ready meals for the forseeable. I've tried moderation for decades but the hyper-palatable marketing buggers have a tight grip on me. Which makes sense. They don't employ food scientists and say 'please create us a crisp that people will want to eat once a month.'

I'm not saying I'll never have crisps or sweets or sauces or sugary or snacky foods again but I think my taste buds, and my willpower, just need a little bit of a break for a few weeks, to just have some regular lovely foods, flavoured with oils, herbs, spices, salts and peppers. To just learn how to eat properly again.

I'm not going to count calories or carbs or anything like that, it's too much to do all at once. If I'm hungry, I'll eat. But I just need to get off this roller-coaster and reset.

I won't be boring and keep going on about it, I just needed to write it out somewhere so there's less chance of me talking myself out of it.

Are you all sitting in a circle though, maybe she's waiting for that.

Or she's eaten them all already!

When I was having my booster jab I was a bit nervous (but loads better than I used to be) and the woman tried to distract me by saying "what are you having for your tea"...

... lady I don't even know what my name is at this point :LOL: I just mumbled something about 'getting something easy on way home'.

Through lockdown me and my fella had fajitas every other day so I literally wrote ‘fajitas’ every other day on the what are you having for dinner thread. I think at one point I had it 3 days in a row 😂

Fajitas are so good though! I would have them 3 days in a row if I could. Obsessed with anything in a wrap 😋

I feel the same, after a phase of empty comfort earting, I was so full but feeling so deprived. Eating fresh food actually helped a bit, I hope to keep it up. You can do it!
