Ok. Weigh-in Friday!

Start weight: 9 stone 6.5
Weight today: 9 stone 0

Thats in, erm, three weeks? Not sure. Happy with it, anyway.

PS that bean mash sounds delicious. I might make it tonight with tinned butter beans, think it'll work?

Morning all. Am back from Croatia. Should really change my name back to plain old Buda though. Was not in the Zone. Oh no.

Confession.

Bless me fellow Zoners for I have sinned. I had pizza. I had croissants. I had ice cream. I had the most fab chocolate souffles. I had bread. I had chips. I had wine.

DH reckons I wasn't TOO bad. And he has seen me at TOO bad. First day started well. Stopped in Zagreb for lunch - it was Easter Sunday so everywhere was closed. Found a hotel and our only options were toasted sandwiches or club sandwiches. I went for the club but just ate what was inside. Didn't eat any of the bread. Did eat some of the french fries though.

Dinner ended up being one bread roll, lots of wine and some cashew nuts! Ate in hotel in 'posh' restaurant. Menu is apparently the chef's life's work. I ordered the skate. I got cod on a bed of mash potato. There was a printing mistake on the menu apparently. Couldn't come and tell me though. So I sent meal back and didn't have anything. Had PMT so was extra cranky!

Then started period next day which turned into period from hell. Lots of painkillers and stopping at little shops to stock up on tampons.

Ate at one fish restaurant and ordered 'fish fillets with almonds'. Turned out to have CREAM and almonds. Was nice. Only ate half though.

At another restaurant I ordered 'fish fillets with salad and pine nuts'. My order got confused as my friend had ordered risotto so for some reason that was what I got too. With salad and pine nuts!

Did do lots of walking. Had a lovely facial too but was told my skin is very dehydrated so am on a mission to drink lots of water.

Back on plan today though. Weather fab here so DH wants to BBQ. So dinner will be chicken and salad. Will make veg soup too.

Oh. I did weigh myself. Back up to 16st 9.

SuSylvester · 09/04/2010 09:11
