I followed my Rule of Three today (see below) and am starting feel like I'm clawing my way back out of the Lard Pits. Having three proper meals has helped - before I was not bothering to cook meals then snacking incessantly so, of course, by meal time wasn't hungry so didn't cook then kept snacking. Sort of sickness-ennui combined with comfort eating. The drink more water thing has backfired though, I think I'll be making trips to the loo all night. Still not well enough to exercise, but getting better.

By the way, I weighed myself today - scary stuff. Well not as scary as I thought it would be. I have gained a little, but less than a kilo so nothing too devastating. Now I'm just going to try to hold my ground until I feel 100%.
