    christmas

    Saturday, December 29th, 2007, 11:03 am

    i can't quite believe i have got this far, i keep dreaming that it's all in my mind and that when i wake up i'll still be 18 and a half stone. but of course i won't because i only weigh 15 st 3 lbs now and slimming world is a way of life for us now.

     

    i have been so focused in the run up to christmas resisting all chocs and cake etc having red sw freindly meals when eating out and using flexible syns when needed it's been quite easy really although i have found it hard to be good at cooking. i was/am really dissapointed that my willpower seems to have all but dissapeared. since christmas day i have craved all the goodies in the house. christmas day evening i stuffed peanuts, crisps on top of all the stuffing balls i ate at lunch i went to bed feeling really sick and bloated.

    boxing day i intended to fill up on free food but ran out of time before our guests arrived so only had buffet food but didn't feel too bad about it as intended getting back on the wagon next day. but oh no! not as easy as thought. peanuts, chocolate and cheesy biscuits after a fairly healthy tea of turkey, prawns in seafood sauce and salad.

    gets worse, friday ate quite well all day then chocolate, pate and crackers and chocy biscuits and shortbread :( after a huge tea of turkey and salad.

    so saturday i'm focused. lots of fruit; weetabix for breakfast; bacon, tomatoes mushrooms and eggs for lunch; cooking a gammon joint for tea to have with salad. made my son take some of the goodies to work and am thinking of giving the rest to mother in law but feel mean denying the family the treats if only  cold be sensible instead of a piggy.

    fingers crossed

    but what ever happens from the 1st of january i am well and truly on the wagon as i want to be a size 16 by the 4th april when i go to turkey
