Testarossa1.
You look so much younger in your after photo, so an added bonus to your brilliant weight loss.

@Thebluedog, thank you, it's nice that people can see the difference, it took me a bit longer to see it myself! I still saw fat in the mirror. But side by side photos really do help you realise how much you have lost.

@Binfield135, thanks for such a lovely complement! I feel so much better too, lots more energy. I like walking, but I used get all sweaty and out of breath and my knees would hurt. This year in June we went to Austria and did a lot of walking. It was only when my DP said that I was keeping up with him and not having to constantly stop to catch my breath that it dawned on me how much easier I was finding it!!

Keep at it everyone, it does work!!!

Need some help this morning.
First week and I was on it. I’ve been making great food choices and Yesterday I did a 10k cycle ride. All week I’d been almost dreading this weekend, we’d been invited to a 40th party and I couldn’t figure out a plan where I could be successful.
I wasn’t! Last night went to a party and drunk too much vodka. I didn’t have tea before I went (foolish) and had a bit of party food, half a large bread bun with some hot beef. (I was going to eat just the meat but... paper plates Confused, crisps and two chocolate chip cookies. I turned down the cake though!!
Today I’m feeling v delicate. Had healthy eggs on a slice of toast and a banana for breakfast. How on earth do I get through the rest of the day and not eat hangover food of crisps and chocolate?

I so wanted a great first week loss. Will it all be ruined now?

@Tobermory just pull it back by having lots of speed foods. If you need SW Chips for it have them.

Best thing to do in the future is plan. Have prepared snacks to eat, organise eating food before hand etc.

groovee, Thanks, i was good today. I had some SW chips but didn’t cave on hangover food.

I knew I needed a plan but couldn’t follow it!
My weigh in is Tuesday eve. I’m planning on cycling tomorrow eve. What do you reckon the damage might be?

Tobermory, you sometimes just have to allow yourself that one night off to enjoy yourself. The guilt will eat you otherwise.

Another great day. 14.5 syns but was worth in on a lovely roast dinner.

Had a good day Sunday, Monday was going so well...

Have ended the day in hospital with my daughter as she's having a little bit of trouble with her breathing, so she's had an inhaler and she's being monitored. So I've had a sandwich and crisps from the shop as there wasn't much to choose from. She seems ok at the moment, hopefully she will be discharged soon.

Had the whole 6 week's holiday to be ill and she chooses the first day of the new term!
