Nikina70's Journal, 01 Sep 23

This is after an un-recorded weight of 67.2kg last week, so I'm not too upset about it. Started tracking calories again this week and stayed in a good range. I've also been managing my average of 7k steps a day. Did IF since Tuesday, and I think that's helped too. I will try to continue next week.

I've also started having a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in the morning since Wednesday. I used to do it years ago, and I'm still not sure if it really works or that it's just a placebo for me, but I'll try anything to lessen the visual spread around my midsection. Just hate the taste, so having it in black coffee with a tsp of honey. Weird, but tolerable.

Our holiday is approaching in just over a week, and I'm feeling a bit nervous about it. Probably just because other holidays we've wanted to go on in recent years never materialised, and for some reason, I'm dreading it happening again even though it's all booked and paid for already. Hoping this feeling goes over the weekend. Next week should be busy with work, so I won't have time to fret, which is a good thing.

Hope you all have a great weekend! Meant to be up to 24 degrees here this weekend, so we'll take a picnic on a walk somewhere pretty.
