I seem to have settled into this nice eat at 3 pm and stop at 5 pm rhythm. I think the stomach does shrink. Or at least you feel full quickly. It is a nice feeling. A good feeling. And again, weirdly I do not feel hungry. It is a mystery.

I am not running at this stage, just waiting to get to my right weight and then exercising to tone myself. Yesterday I had some belly pork very crispy, half a pineapple, a bowl of crisps, dried mango and pate. I think that intake is still too high. I need to cut it down. 

Oh yes, three squares of dark chocolate.

But I would have eaten twice that amount previously. 

I did calorie count and it was still about the same amount a single person needed. No that should be fine. I'm in the ballpark. I can literally see the weight coming off daily which is always encouraging. 

I used to blog about this, then I stopped because of the stupid ads which would pop up on google and facebook. Now I just ignore them. Some of them are pure clickbait. I don't know what is so difficult about weight loss - calories in and calories out. There is this programme called Secret Eaters and people literally say I don't know how come I put on weight I eat nothing... it turns out they are eating 4,000 calories a day. Is it because they are greedy? No. It is because they are unhappy. People eat to cope with whatever they are going through. Or they are bored. I know that I did that. I had started eating absent-mindedly. I would literally forget what I had eaten. 

This system means that I know I cannot eat outside these hours. It works like. It will not work in Singapore so I will need to watch myself.

BUT the point is, that we all eat too much and eat too well. I have stopped eating the food in the teacher's room. Stopped taking food from the kids. I have just stopped myself from all that.

Right... documentation for tomorrow...
