Course I don't mind
I suppose we just have to remind ourselves that even if we're not losing weight then eating/drinking badly for 2/3 days a week is much better than 7, which is what I was doing before.. What we need to do is break the association between food and entertainment.. Like this Friday it's my friend's birthday meal - I'm not going to not go because I'm on a diet.. But I don't have to have a burger and a dessert.. And I will still have fun.
Also the thinking of 'I deserve this food treat' - we don't, we deserve much better than feeling fat and a failure after we eat it. We deserve to feel healthy and happy with ourselves.
Hope you have a good day - sorry for the 'deep' post this early
aha. We'll all get there in the end, at least we're still trying! Xx

No breakfast! I know I need to sort myself out but when I'm in work I'd rather have the extra 10 mins in bed..
Lunch: Pasta'n' sauce with salad
Dinner: Chilli (onion, garlic, extra lean mince, red pepper, chopped tinned toms, kidney beans fresh chilli, chilli powder) with rice and cauliflower (oh the of combinations we eat to get our 1/3 superfree)
Snack: 1/2 a galia melon, (hexb) Alpen light bars

No breakfast again!! Tut tut.
Lunch: Last night's chilli with cous cous and salad
Snack: clementine
Dinner: SW chicken, garlic and lemon casserole (onion, garlic, chicken, green beans, lemon, chicken bovril) served with mash (part hexa milk, no butter), cauliflower and broccoli
Snack: 1/2 cantaloupe melon
2 x double gin and slimline tonics (10 syns)
That looks like LOADS!
From here on in it's gonna be a bit tougher to stick to plan.. Going to hit the wine tomorrow I think as i have a friend staying that I haven't seen for ages.. although food shouldn't be a problem.. And then Friday is a meal out although I should be able to stick to 'diet' alcoholic drinks..
My aim from now until Monday is to be good food wise (apart from the one meal out - where I will try and be sensible!!) and make the best drink decisions I can (apart from tomorrow) that way I should hopefully see a bit of a loss - or at least gain back some of the control I've been losing at weekends where I've eaten and drank everything in sight!

That does not look like loads at all! What are you like? Stop beating yourself up babes. Have a lovely weekend and a good catch up with your friend. Be good where you can and you could still be in for a loss xx

I'm really focused food wise at the moment, enjoying food a lot more now I'm eating meat again.. And feeling much healthier and less deprived than when I was on CC. Yet to weigh though and due a * week this weekend so probably not lost - but clothes feel a bit looser (certainly not tighter anyways) xx

Clothes fitting better is the best result. I get hooked on the numbers on the scales sometimes and it's so unhealthy.
