I've had a bit of a bad couple of weeks and haven't reeeeeaaally lost anything probably about 2 lbs altogether. I've just not had time to go to the gym as they've recently changed the creche about and I've just not been able to go when it's been on this week at all. I was a bit naughty on Wednesday as I went to visit my mum because I had the dentist and ate a mince pie, a chocolate crispie thing and a packet of crisps! I also had a packet of crisps last sunday too

I know it's not the end of the world, but what I've been doing is allowing myself one treat a week (if i cut out all the goodies completely I think I'd go insane!) Anyway, the thing is tonight I'm going out for a meal with a group of my friends to celebrate my birthday but because I've been so naughty this week I'm just not going to be able to enjoy it as guilt free as i thought i would! My birthday isn't until Next Thursday and my mum is making me one of her amazing birthday cakes (and I'm not worried about that because as far as I'm concerned when you eat cake on your birthday it has no calories in it, otherwise when can you enjoy cake?!!)

I suppose this post doesn't really have much of a point to it, other than to vent at my pathetic lapses the last wee while. I'm lighter now than I have been for a long time, I'm a comfortable size 16 now and I'm delighted with how far I've come....its just amazing how a bad week can really put a dampner on things.

Rose my darling don't I just know it!!!

Had the most awful day yesterday.

Your doing great

Michele

Rose - you're doing very well. It always helps to plan these things in advance - that way you know you are in control of your eating.

Enjoy your birthday celebration tonight - start afresh tomorrow and maybe plan not to have any treats for the next two weeks (except for a slice of birthday cake, of course!)
