Weekly weigh in – November 25th

November 25th – Well, it’s 4 weeks to Christmas and I can’t see I’m going to get my 8.5 stone award back, let alone get my 9 stone award!
I didn’t do an update last week because I was really fed up.

I’d been extra good all week, counting syns, weighing healthy extras and swapping carbs for speed veg, for example, when I did chilli and rice for everyone, I had cabbage instead of rice and I put 2lb on.

I was expecting to lose at least 4lb so to have a gain after working so hard all week was really disappointing.

I was invited to my friend, Jackie’s that night for a craft party and for the first time in about 11 years I got drunk.
On a school night!

I was still drunk when I woke up the next morning and didn’t get back on track with my eating.

Friday night we went to visit Jourdain and Netty, Ant’s son and girlfriend, and we had a takeaway for dinner.
Saturday we went to visit Kellyann, Ant’s daughter and had spaghetti bolognese followed by lemon meringue pie then Sunday we made chocolate orange cornflake cakes which I could not stop eating.

I managed to get back on track on Monday and Tuesday and only put a pound on this week, which was quite a good result after all the alcohol and food!

I need to lose 12lb to get my 8.5 stone award back so 3lb a week would see me do it by Christmas but I’m not confident now that I can do it but I will try my best 🙂
