Friday 3rd
Hi All
I have been AWOL for a couple of days. Wednesday I was good all day and then very naughty when I was out with my friend to wet her baby's head - it was her first night out since having Albie and she wanted to drink, so drink we did! We had 3 bottles (I KNOW!) of Rose!!!! What lushes we were. I am not generally a lover of Rose, I prefer Red, but the Bare Foot Rose is amazing. We ate in Harvester and had lots of salad and then I had a PLantation Platter - which was so good, but soooo bad, I couldn't finish it all so I wrapped up most of the chicken and gave it to our resident homeless cat that is always around our flats, Beryl. He lapped it up!
Yesterday I was good, until I succumbed to 4 Roses chocolates, one of the girls at work bought a box for Eid. I had to! Then, on a rampage I got home and planted a Nandos seed in Mick's brain, and we had that - and no, my choices were not good - I had half a chicken (with skin!) and large chips with peri peri salt - it was amazing!
Back on the plan today - I need that weight off me! I need to start being good. I was supposed to be going out for an Indian tonight, but I have blown it out because I know I can't be good when I go there - we drink too much and eat too much. I need to get serious. Today is 10 weeks until my cruise and I have not done enough to be losing the weight I want to be.
Exercise starts tomorrow.
Food today:
B - LMc ROAR Sausage Sandwich (HEB) + (1) for ketchup and a large white coffee (HEA)
L - Roasted Tom and Black Bean Soup with roll (HEB)
D - Egg and Cheesy (HEA) Chips with fried mushrooms and onions
For snacks at work I have a bowlful of superspeedy berries (straw, rasp and black) and a plum and satsuma.
I will try and keep syns under 5 today and tomorrow to combat the naughties of the last few days.
Have a good day y'all

You're making me want cheesy chips for dinner tonight! I think you could easily lose at least a stone in 10 weeks. And how were you still standing after sharing 3 bottles of wine?!? I felt a bit dizzy after one glass last weekend!

Weeeeeelllll it was only 9% volume alcohol if that makes it any less bad??? All those empty calories! Still we had a good time.
Look at me I am trying to be berry good (see what I did there?)

So I am just making bacon cheeseburger and chips and coleslaw and I just saw the difference between what's in my burger and what's in Mick's burger. I had to take a pic!

Hi Charley. Looks like you've been having a couple of great weeks, you're new plan of week at a time is working
Thanks for your lovely comments, I've been on holiday so only got to read them today xx
I have to admit though that I haven't been even vaguely good on my hols. I totally decided to just enjoy it and not even think about dieting. I sneak weighed this morning & it wasn't pretty! So I'm giving official WI a miss this week in the hope that next week my consultant doesn't faint lol
Your food is looking fab, especially that stir fry. Is it your WI tomorrow? I'm sure you'll have that half stone award this week

Hi all
Thanks for your well wishes - I lost 1lb this week, which gives me my first 1/2 stone off, so I have just proudly updated my siggy to include the new shiny award!
I obviously wanted more than 1lb (like biscuits, 1 is never enough!) but hey its all going the right way, who cares how slowly!
It has occurred to me that because my losses are generally pretty slow and low, I am probably not going to get to my mini target by 12 December (I wanted 2 stone and I only have just over 9 weeks) its do-able if I can consistently lose 2.5lbs per week, but honestly my losses aren't that high, very rarely can I reach those dizzy heights - so I will just try and make do with doing what I am doing and just starting each day with a hope that I can stick to plan. I am also on Day 3 of my DVDs again, so hopefully they may help me shift inches if not actual weight.
I haven't been around much, work has been mad and home has been resty time - brain turns off from 7pm onwards.
I hope everyone is well.

Well done on the loss - I am also a tortoise and I think just as long as it's going downwards rather than upwards then I just have to accept it. You never know, mind!

Thanks Ladies - I actually did surprise myself today, a lovely girl that I have just started working with made cup cakes last night and bought some in and left one on my desk! They were delicious looking cupcakes with a surprise oreo stuff inside! I told her I would have it after lunch and took a tiny slice from it and had it, it was amazing, then whilst she was still at lunch I threw the rest in the bin! I felt really dishonest and awful that I told her how lovely it was and I wolfed it down while she was still at lunch, but I never, I chucked it - I feel ashamed and happy at the same time!!!!!! Here is the cupcake:
