Hey scott - I officially weigh monthly, but do hop on the scales whenever I feel the need - realising my weight fluctuates due to water, etc. It gives me an indication of what's happening. I tried putting them up on the top of the cupboard where I couldn't reach, but got desparate and dragged them down. Now I just try to ignore them and only threaten them on weigh days
And Doug, I have analysed my portions and try to keep them 'average'. I reviewed the post you suggested. I only eat raspberries and strawberries as fruit and that maybe every 2-3 weeks. If I buy a punnet (250g) it is usually eaten over 3 days. I feel I might be eating too much cheese which I am aware of and try to keep an eye on that. I slice parmesan cheese really fine and just have slivers when I get the urge - daily. Vegies may be 1/2 - 1 cup daily (but then again I may skip a day totally) and are usually broc, cauli, spinach, red pepper, mushroom or zucc. Nuts are only maccadamias and are limited to 20g and not on a regular basis.
Sugar alcohols in SF choc (8-20g) I'd like to say every couple days, but honesty tells me almost daily.
When I work nightshift about 3 times/week I take 4 SF wafers with peanut butter.
I tell myself to move more, but after a nightshift I feel exhausted.
I drink approx 5 cups of coffee a day (I don't count carbs for that as I only use 1/3 tspn measure in a teacup).
Been wondering if I should swap to decaf and skip all sugar alcohols (and in desperation cheese) and see if one of them might be doing the damage.
