you'll get back on track i'm sure as you are super great at the moment with determination. i think that it's hard when you are faced with making choices. i remember taking my own meal to a christening buffet once and it tasted bad and i left most of it going for some buffet goodness washed down with a tapas meal out that evening :0
i went out sat and ate mexican too and loved the nachos but hated my main meal and wished i'd chosen differently. this happened last time on my diet when i decided to have the fish dish and be good. it was sea bass which i'd never had before and it was horrid. sometimes a little of what you like is good for you. last night was hard for me as i just wanted to eat. partially hunger partially greed. had crisps, wine, 2 small chocs etc in the end i had some gum (a packet of it), a hot choc and then went to bed and played plants v zombies to get my mind off food and drink. mind the scales have dropped this morning lol.

Sew my mouth closed!!! It's ok I know why I'm like this it's because I knew I'd be eating tomorrow and Saturday so I kinda relaxed, but way too early!! I'll be back on later to explain all but I'm expecting my best mate round any minute. Catch you in a bit! Xxx

It started when I was caught unaware on Tuesday, about the buffet for the lady who retired, I think if I could've planned for it I would probably have been ok, but instead I messed up and things went down hill from there. It's really made me think and I feel sick at what I've done, but it's a learning curve and now I know I need to be very careful in future about letting things slide. I guess the damage is done for this week, there's no getting it back so I need to accept responsibility for it and move on from Sunday. I guess the good thing is that I lost 8lbs so if I have put that back on at least I'm only back to where I was before, not back up at 14st again.
So from Sunday, I will again be 100% SS in an effort to claw back a weight loss. I find myself having to remember that this isn't a race, so long as I am at target comfortably for Vegas thats all I ask. If I have a few hiccups along the way, ok, I'll deal with it.
So don't worry about me, I'll make it, I just need to keep my focus. I just hope I enjoy my two meals out because in the past I haven't I've felt guilty. Thanks for your concern I really appreciate all your support, I think if it wasn't for you all I'd have given in a long time agoxxx

I went to Matalan today to try and buy some new clothes after yesterdays failed attempt at clothes shopping I thought I'd go for an old favourite. I can usually rely on Matalan to come up with the goods, but apprently you now have to be size 8 or 10 or 28 to buy clothes there. Everything I wanted to try on was either Barbie sized or huge. I cant believe it, I ended up buying jewellery.
I used to buy shoes and jewellery when I was bigger because I couldn't find nice clothes to fit, now I'm a reasonably normal size 14-16 I still can't find clothes....it's so bloody frustrating!!! If I was a size 8 they'd only have 14-16s no doubt!!
Sorry about that rant but it made me cross!! However I guess it just goes to prove that the majority of the population are my size - worrying???

Yay, I love jewellery. Especially cheap matalan jewellery!
I went in the other day and all the stuff I liked was in 16's and 18's. No 20's. So either we have completely different tastes or we need to visit each others Matalan stores! lol

Ha ha all I wanted were some nice summery floaty vest tops and there were loads of them but mostly all in its bitsy sizes!! I even went to the plus sized section in hope that they had some small 18 s but nope. I think it's because I've just been paid usually they have loads of things when I'm poor at the end of the month lol. I think I'll have to have another trip up to Gap on Sunday!

Well I'm laid here in my bed too full and drunk to sleep. I've enjoyed tonight but despite promising myself I would not get dessert and drink too much I did both!!! So sorry if this post is totally unreadable, iPhones and drunk fingers don't make for good posts!!
I lost my temper with good old Tactless Tessie at lunch time!! On Tuesday at the buffet she told me "it's good to see you eating!" seriously?? That comment might be fair enough if I was painfully thin from not eating and we all know that I'm far from painfully thin lol. Anyway because I seem to have lost my mojo and was planning on drinking tonight I made certain I'm not in ketosis by eating lunch again today. TT asked if I'd given up on the diet and was eating normally again. I totally lost it.... I told her "I eat when it suits me to eat, I don't appreciate having my feeding habits scrutinised and don't have to explain myself to anyone! And don't talk to me again about my diet, food or eating! Thank you!" don't actually think she even registered that she'd offended me!! I'm having a hard enough time with CD at the moment without having her add to it all.
Anyway after tonights excesses I've decided not to go out tomorrow night, I feel like such a glutton I'm not going to go outntomorrow night to the next meal!!! I'm going to get back on track right away tomorrow morning!!!
Anyway typing is becoming a struggle lol so I'm off to bed, ready to start all afresh tomorrow! Night Xxx

Morning surf sounds as if you needed to get that off your chest, it's hard when ppl but into your business, hun.!
Im glad you told her to say out, at times people really do need to be told.!
That's how i felt last week sunday going to watch the footie at the pub had good intentions but just didnt happen.!
Tha'ts y this time round ive cancelled most social events with friends.
But in two weeks time i have 2 hen parties to attend and i am going.! so need to be good.
But last sunday with my bowl of chips it didnt bother me so much really. and have been a bit better this week, it's all forgotten with now
So you will wake up this morning, and i hope feel the same too hun?? (Draw a clean line for today)
'You can do it hun'!! xx
enjoy your weekend chic x

Okay so back on track today, right now I've got a stinking headache from the drink last night so it's not going to get any worse. I'm sticking to my Huns and definitely not going tonight I need to get back on track and give myself an extra day of 100% and I really don't think I'd enjoy it if I went I'd feel too guilty!!
So I need to get my head into gear and not give in to the inevitable temptation of sausage sandwiches at work, hopefully my hangover will stop me, I need to do this again.

there are always tactless people out there that just love to stick their noses in where they just don't belong.
i've eaten loads this am. 2 slices of bread and a small bowl of porridge (it exploded everywhere in the microwave) i'm off to pump and combat launch at 9.30am. think it's on from 10am to 12 lunchtime.
p.s was at dalton park wednesday and they had some lovely shorts in gap for £7.99. wished i'd got 2 pairs now.

I feel sick, my stomach feels so bloated and uncomfortable! I love the empty flatter feeling when I'm on CD, which is probably worrying but hey. I've just upset my friend telling her I'm not going out tonight but I'm really not up for it
I've really been struggling so gar today, I can't face all these days of not eating that lie ahead of me but I need to get this done. It's my friends 30th on Friday and she's having a party on Sat I'm going but not eating, that will be a major test for me!!
If I'm honest I'm feeling really despondent about dieting, it seems that every time I do well something comes up to ruin it, I'm so weak willed at the moment it scares me, I think I'm going to end up the size I was before if I just stop doing CD. I want to be able to do this but I'm struggling so much. I just want to get back in the zone and get the last stone and a bit off and then I can't begin to feel better.

Hun, why don't you start thinking about moving up the plans. Doing 810 or 1000 for a while. You can always move back down when you are feeling stronger. I'm fed up with the scales not moving. I lost so much the first week that I want the rest just as quickly.
The scales are still reading the same as Thursday wi and I am drinking till it comes out of my ears. On sw I was doing an average of 2 lbs a week. Am meeting with the girls tonight for a DVD and they will be having Chinese, at the minute I am doubting if I will be strong enough to decline.
