Well im back!! Had a few manic days and just havent had time to get on and also been quite naughty. :S
Friday was a meal and drinks for a friends 30th although it all went a little pear shaped. Hubby was meant to be driving and we were going to harvest and then on to a wine bar for a few drinks. But we got to harvester and there was a 2 hour wait :O shocking we were all starving so ventured into town to find something with a a little less wait, We tied a few places and ended up in nandos, i didnt think it would be to bad cause althought it was more points than harvest i had saved quite a few points and would just have a few less drinks however we were told it would be a 15min wait and 45 mins later we were still sitting there! :S Eventually we were seated by the manager who brought us a free starter of olives, and the pittas breads which were delish perfect as we were all starving and easy to eat over conversation and i tucked in and i was only when i finished i realised what i had done :S I couldnt really point it as had no idea how much i had eaten. Hubby then decided after the meal he would drink so we ended up partying the night away in town. We had a lovely night but a few to many points consumed not including the starter i had managed to stay in my points as i drank ameratto and diet coke all night and only had 4. So i kind of wrote off friday and said i would just go back to 26 points the following day. However that didnt happen either. Me and hubby went off to the 02 to see the x-factor tour and again being a saturday in london all the food places were rammed. We walking lots round london trying to find a shoe shop as i wore the worst pair of shoes and they had destroyed my feet, ive never been so pleased to see primark and a pair of fake uggs in the sale £3 bosh happy feet again, but by this point we were nackared and hungry and headed to the nearest place which was tgi's by that point i didnt care we shared natchos and i had quidillas and they were amazing but i felt so bad afterwards. I picked the wagon back up on sunday knowing there was likely to be a gain monday morning.......however this morning the scales showed a loss of 2lbs!!!! i dont quite know how it happened and i put it down to the walking but i felt i didnt really deserve it. so im fully back on the wagon!! IM NOT BACK IN THE 16'S so chiffed and now down to 25 points i think :S Wednesday im off to london again to see Shreck and see my auntie who i havent seen since xmas so there will be a meal. However im gonna save points where i can and just eat sensible i wont eat much during the day anyway as we will be doing shopping so will just point and pick wisly and then pick back up thursday!! But im back and i have to get this working. Anyway after an essay heres what today looks like:

Put on a 1lb this week and really gutted :-( it's the first time I've put on this year :-( I know it's most likely to have something to do with my bad day on Wednesday and i think not having and exercise is taking it's toll. I'm doing a roast for the family today and was going to have a day off point as it's really difficult to point a roast when your cooking for 8. Now I just feel like not eating it at all. :-( I know it's only a 1lb and will probs come off easily but I think as it's my first gain I'm taking it a bit harder :-(

Well here I am again I've Bren AWOL for a few days and it's been horrible. Firstly I had my WI on monday and had my 1lb gain! Then Tuesday I was struck down again with illness, te usual cough, cold asthma kicking in big time but my whole body was like a dead weight and I couldn't move out of bed. Wednesday morning I ended up having a severe asthma attack an had to goto the medical centre to be put on a nebuliser it was pretty scary as only ever had 1 other full on attack and that's when I was diagnosed with asthma 2 years ago! I've been put on a very strong course of steroids for a week and antibiotics that have just made me feel lously! :-( the steroids make me feel hungry and antibiotics have made me feel sick so I have just had to eat whatever I can keep down and it has been impossible to keep to the diet :-( I weighed in today, not my usual day and wanted to see the damage. 3lb gain so a total of 4lb and I'm gutted feel like I've taken 3 steps back when it was going so well. My only comfort it that is couture be helped I was ill and needed to give my body what it needed but I started back on the diet today and I will get that 4lbs back off. Walking starts on Monday with DS as he's off to nursery (so emotional about that right now) and will be doing at least 2miles every day most days being 4 miles of walking so that should be my exercise that I'm missing out on and still need to get my treadmill fixed and get back in to c25k! I WILL turn this around this weight HAS to go!! I kept to points today but will start back with diary on here on monday! Going to be making some changed and using my points much better so I'm feeling fuller for longer and eating healthier foods more often! Changes ahead and they will stick!

Thanks Hun xx
Well I've been 100% all week just been so busy haven't got round to updating diary!! DS started nursery on Monday so it's been a very hectic first week! We've both had to change routines to suit our new lifestyles but we've persevered and I think were on the right track. We still just have to wait and see what the scales say Monday morning. I've only just finished taking my steroids which the doctor did say could effect weight loss so only time will tell. Will try and get myself sorted so I can get my diary back up and running
