@acromouse thank you hoping your meds settle soon 
congrats on 9 whole months of freedom from sugar 
amazing! 
43 days no takeaways.
39 days no sugar.
25 days no crisps, no binge-eating.
I was getting angry and feeling like I wanted to binge everything Iāve been restricting yesterday, but I walked to the shopping centre and bought the healthy lunch that I get on Mondays after therapy, and then I felt completely fine after Iād eaten that. I just wish I could afford to get it every day. My back wasnāt good, it was already hurting by the time Iād walked there, and was agony all the way home, so I couldnāt get back out for the walk I did the day before, but still did the same amount of steps so itās okay, just frustrating. I received a text yesterday asking me to call today to schedule my appointment with the specialist, so Iāve just booked that and itās on the 10th of September, so thatās hopeful. The past two days have been the closest Iāve been to going to the gym so far, so maybe big things will happen today, but no promises.

Feeling less crazy around food. It (the crazy) felt quite short this month. Grateful for that.

44 days no takeaways.
40 days no sugar.
26 days no crisps, no binge-eating.
Awake early, despite not being able to sleep until late last night. Because of not being able to fall asleep, my insatiable appetite kicked in, and the cravings for all kinds of takeaways and crisps were almost impossible to ignore, but I thought about how Iād really feel if I had to reset any counters, and how long it would take (?) to get back on track, and that worked.
I managed to do my walk around the first lake, had to rest my back on a bench again halfway, and for the rest of the way I had to walk so slowly and was in a lot of pain. I know I need to keep doing it, along with my rehab exercises, so I will.

I got to 2 days and 9 hours without binging now
My stomach is in pain (IBS) for 3 days. I hope it will go away soonā¦ 
I think I figured out what it caused, so I must remember not to eat it again.

Yesterday was stressful, I was conned in an online scam because I am so desperate to lose weight, and there was this wristband device with loads of comments of peopleās transformations, so I got sucked in, they took Ā£20 more than the ātotalā I was supposed to pay, and when I emailed them to query, I got an undeliverable msg to say the email does not exist. I dont know what to do, so while I think about it, I have locked my card, the payment is currently still āpendingā in my account, and I think I can only dispute it if it āsettlesā.
Not only that, I was supposed to receive a delivery of mould remover for my shower on Thursday, but it didnāt arrive. Then it was supposed to come yesterday between 4-6pm, at 5pm it was ā8 stops awayā then the next time I checked the driver was in a completely different area and it just kept saying āthe driver needs to make a few more deliveries on the wayā, it finally arrived at 21:20, I had fallen asleep waiting at around 9pm, so it woke me up, then I fell asleep on the toilet until 23:30 
Therapy was also really hard and we ended on a really sad note. Binge mode was activated and so I had to do something, so I walked to the shopping centre and bought the healthy lunch I get on Mondays again. Unfortunately I still had the urge to binge all afternoon, and even more so after I took my meds around 7pm, so I had to do something again, and I went to the local shop and bought this sweet potato falafel and grains meal, and some strawberries, they curbed the cravings enough for me to fall asleep.

I feel like you eating healthy meals rather than binging is something to be proud of.
Today was not so good. I know what happened though. Lunch was too small, argument with husband was too big. Binged on cereal which was in the house. At least I didnāt eat overly sweet stuff, or secretly buy stuff.

@acromouse @Misokatsu thank you both, this is true 
46 days no takeaways.

28 days no crisps, no binge-eating.
Yesterday didnāt go as planned. I started doing my check-ins at 8am, and could barely focus, so it took me until 4pm. I had planned to go to the gym and swimming at 1pm, so that didnāt happen, and itās all because of the very late delivery on Friday night, so I didnāt wake up as early as usual and that always seems to mean I canāt focus right for the rest of the day.
I also bought the same foods as I did on Friday, so I walked to both the local shop, and the shopping centre. I did over 5K steps in total so thatās a good thing. I canāt keep buying all this food though so I have to stop. I am already thinking about having the pizza that I had a week ago again today, Iāve been craving it since yesterday evening when I couldnāt sleep again. I hope I donāt give in, but itās also not too big of a deal if I do, as long as I donāt have to reset any counters, thatās my prioirty goal.
