ProPoints Karen's 'Scenic Route to Target' Diary

[Poppybibby]

My old manager came to visit me today and said how well I looked and he could see I've lost weight! That has spurred me on for the week now it's so nice when people notice the results of how hard we all work to shift the weight.

I'm also super-happy today as I managed to get tickets to the McBusted tour next year - Mcfly and Busted being 2 of my fave bands from my teenage years! :-D

Ok so this week has been a write off. I can't get to WI tomorrow as I have family coming down to visit but will weigh myself at home and see what damage I have done. I found my old Rosemary Conley workout DVD and did that twice a day until I hurt my ankle and had to stop then the mid-week weigh in (which I am stopping with immediate effect!) showed a STS despite all the exercise so I went a little off the rails and probably have had double my weeklies if not a little more..eek. Will post my WI result tomorrow to get me back on the rails then a 100% on plan week from then (well from now actually - salad for dinner). I can do this!

After a crazy busy few weeks in my new job I've found my feet and I'm back on plan. A gain of 0.5lb after 3 weeks without pointing so not too bad but now I need to see the scales going down! The next few weeks are going to be really tough - I work for a DIY store as a kitchen and bathroom designer and the big winter sale starts this Sunday meaning 9 weeks of 12 hour days, 7 days a week. I've stocked up my freezer with WW ready meals for when I get home in an evening but I'm struggling to come up with a plan for how to manage my food during the daytimes. I don't think I'll find the time to fit in much exercise at all so I'll be trying to limit my weeklies. Does anyone have any suggestions for lunches I can take to work with me that are low PP, filling and don't require heating up?? I'll need to eat at my desk (which technically I'm not allowed to do!) I think this could be difficult, lol.
