Hey Rosa, did you have a lovely time over the last few days? Your food doesn't sound too bad for being away, but as long as you had a lovely time, that's what matters more
Don't you think sometimes we put too much thought into what we are eating or have eaten against what it was we were actually doing? I know this is a weight loss diary forum, but I find that I sometimes lose touch on life, like the hen weekend I went in recently, I was so aware of all the food and drink that surrounded me, that I felt I needed to think about enjoying myself, I did in the end, as came on here to confess my syns!
Have a lovely day Rosa.
