Hey fellow last stoners (!!), how did the dreaded Xmas period go then and did you all have a fab time? I haven't been on here for ages as we have had no internet access as home but no longer need to come on here very often as feel like my dieting journey is coming to an end (or at least was, until Christmas).
Last WI just before the festivities, I was 9 stone 2 (but this was in the evening so I was pretty sure I was 9 in the morning and had indeed reached target). All went a bit wrong over the last week though. I re-introduced alcohol and had a few nibbly bits as it was approaching Christmas and don't seem to have stopped since (whoops). I pigged out something rotten on sweets and chocolate as well, which is actually unlike me. Also have had a few meals out (last one tonight before I am strict again). Annoyingly, my partner's mother gave him all the sweets and stuff that we didn't eat to bring back here along with some pate and sausage rolls, which has been seriously bad news, especially when last night after I had been good and had diet coke at the pub and hardly ate anything all day, I came home and couldn't resist the jelly babies. Bought some posh scales in the sales and not too pleased with the results they have given me!! Was 9 stone 3 this morning so have defintely put some on but they told me I was 9 stone 10 yesterday!! Don't understand scales at all - how can I lose half a stone in a day?? Anyway, I'll stop rambling. Was getting a bit worried it was all getting out of control again but have decided that I am going to allow myself the meal tonight (crayfish and salmon cocktail, grilled seabass and hmm, triple chocolate cake washed down with muchos vino) and all the excesses of tomorrow - buffet and booze - on NY Eve and then worry about it when I'm back to work and can then be more sensible. May also have to throw my chocolate orange, box of chocolates and sweets away which were given to me as a very nice, if slightly unthoughtful, gift. Don't trust myself to be "normal" around food yet and getting obsessively worried about looking bloated. Arggh, didn't think it would be this bad
