Just got back from hols last night! hubby back to work today, which seems a bit odd with all the time off he's had, but still it's good to get back to normal. got loads of unpacking and laundry to get done today. am hoping to get back to SW today, but haven't dared to look in the cupboards yet, cos i know i need shopping, but can't get any til tonight! Definately changing WI day to Friday's. can't say i'm looking forward to WI this week, but i need to know where i am to be able to try and get this weight down.

Just been catching up on your diary hun. Well done getting back on to it and the exercise too. Love the new piccies too. I'm guessing from the flower in your hair it was on the day of the wedding. How did it go. Bet you had a fab time and you'd worried yourself sick for nothing.

Yeah, piccie taken day of the wedding. everyone had a lovely time. to be honest i didn't much enjoy it. firstly, morris dancing is not my kind of thing, and secondly, as predicted, i was left on my own with the kids at a table in a room full of people of whom (apart from immediate family sat at top table) i barely knew 4 people, and didn't know at all anyone else. but day over now, and piccies show a different story to how i felt. the children had a great time, and polished up beautifully. my hubby was exhausted as had to give his sister away (their dad passed away 3 years ago), and be official photographer, and give a speech.

Hmm morris dancing, I hadn't predicted that. Not heard of that at weddings. Sorry you had a bit of a tough time but most importantly you were there for the kids and for your hubby when he plainly couldn't have done it all if you'd not been there. You look fab and happy in the photo btw.

I'm sure your efforts will be rewarded at WI and any tiny slips will be more than covered by all the exercise you've been doing.

lol! i love my mince meals. i started bulking them out with veggies & pulses years ago to save money, and still be full. Added bonus for it to be SW friendly. Got to wait til about 8 for dinner though shopping night
my hubby has given me an added incentive to lose weight. if i can fit into a size 18 come next July, (or smaller if possible), he will take me on a shopping spree! i'll do almost anything for new clothes :giggle: and hopefully by then i can shop in 'normal' shops again!

Try not to be down about it hun. As you've said you're probably holding on to your food from yesterday IYKWIM. Keep being as good as you have been and it'll show up eventually. A pound is good anyway.
