Hey lovely ladies!
I have returned! I'm back at work but massively jetlagged! The holiday was totally amazing and I'm so sad to be back in the office. Thankfully I have Friday off for a spa day with one of my besties so that's getting me through.
I'm back on the wagon today - should have done a fast day but I knew I wouldn't make it through the jetlag without caffeine and I can't manage black coffee! I weighed in at 10.9 this morning, so 8lbs on. We did eat a lot but we also walked a lot and cycled a bit so I think a lot of it is post-booze and post-flight bloat and it'll come off almost as quickly as it went on! Even if it's not bloat though, it was an incredible holiday and worth every pound - the hotel was beyond amazing. Need to tell you guys all about it (especially you, Katie!!!) but need to get through some of my emails first. And regain the ability to type...after a week of chillaxingm plus the jetlag, plus the coffee, I feel like a neanderthal hammering on the keyboard!
Have a few challenges this week though: tomorrow night I'm going for dinner with my ex colleague to talk about the new position that might be coming up. He wants an indian so I will make the best choices I can and keep the rest of the day syn free. Then Friday we have afternoon tea as part of our spa day package! So I think I'm going to have to fast consecutively on Wednesday and Thursday - hopefully it'll be OK as a one off? Want to get a couple of short runs in too...maybe one tonight as I think it'll make me feel better. We are also staying with friends on Saturday night and he is an amazing cook so that'll be an off plan dinner. Hopefully running and 2 fast days should help! The following weekend we are at Dave's dad's too (his little sister is back from China a week on Friday!) so there will be some MasterChef mother-in-law food, but again, I'm hoping fast days can balance it out!
Aaaaanyway, not sure if it's a red or EE day today - depends on what I can get from Tesco for lunch.
B - Muller Greek (1/2) and strawbs, cappuccino with sweetener (HEXA)
L - tbc
D - Steak and salad with 1 syn sweet chilli sauce
Snacks - mini strawberry kitkat (a colleague went to Japan at the weekend!) - 3 syns
Hope you all had lovely weeks, ladies. I tried to pop in a few times on the wifi but need a good catch up later! xxxxxxxxx
