LUNCH IN STARBUCKS!

[Dorset dumpling]

I've had such a great day - I wanted to share it with you.

I had my first weigh-in this morning, I lost 5 lbs and 15 inches off last weeks measurements !! It was great to see that the bad time I had on day 4 and 5 was worth it. I didn't realise at the time, but as well as getting into ketosis, I was having PMT ! Very bad combination!! I nearly lost the will to live on Saturday.

I left armed with more supplies including bars and set off for a little shopping trip to Bath. I found some stretch chocolate knee-high boots that fitted - oh wow!! and had a great time wondering around the shops.

I ended up at lunchtime in Starbucks (my favourite!) But before you all go "oh no!" I had no intension of undoing all my hard work. I sat upstairs with a large, freshly brewed black coffee, a magazine and a CD cranberry bar. It was fantastic!! I really chilled out and didn't feel I was missing out on anything. I felt I was having a much healthier option than thoes having large muffins and lots of cream and strangely, it felt good.

I had my doubts I would ever feel better. Today was a good day!

Thanks everyone for all your support!

Mustdoit - I'm in Gillingham in North Dorset - about 5 miles south of the A303. It's lovely in the country, but 40 mins for the nearest main town (not so good for shopping - but my husband thinks it's good ). Were abouts are you?

[mustdoit]

used to work in gillingham ...before breeding ....live near ilminster 12 miles from yeovil /.......one of the reasons to loose this weight was went skiing in feb and couldn't get boots in my size 4 to fit so had to have size9 !!!! not easy to ski in !!!

[mustdoit]

i hate the caramel ones !!!!!!

[Dorset dumpling]

I'm amazed you managed to ski at all! You must have felt like you had boats on your feet!! Small world though, I used to work at the hospital in Yeovil - still have friends there that I catch up with. Have you got a ski trip arranged for this season? We haven't booked ours yet - hoping for a last minute bargin (my husband says). I would rather have it organised and sorted - I'm not paying for it though - as I have been reminded...ha...ha...

[mustdoit]

Done bank work at yeovil hosp...........my sister has a house in france near the small ski slope ......the bruises on my calf's were awful !! have you a counsellor in yeovil or gillingham i go to hendford wed 12.30-2.30 ,,,,,

[Dorset dumpling]

It was difficult trying to find a CDC near me! There was a new LL counsellor starting up in Shaftesbury - but I couldn't stretch to the £66 a week! I see a fantastic CDC in Trowbridge (about 40 mins away.) My parents have also started with her - they live closer - so if I can not make it one week - they can get my packs for me. Parents are so great ... ha...ha..
