Licking the Lid of Life....my esoteric diary

I use a vintage (fairly small) soup plate/bowl for my meals. It's much smaller than my dinner plates and has the added advantage of stopping thin 'gravy' running everywhere :)

Sadly I think my portion sizes are still probably too large though. I'm living in fear of the dreaded plateau, so seriously considering starting to cut my portion sizes now.... but would that be self defeating in the long run? Sometimes I think too much! Lol
 
I have wondered this too? Can you reduce TOO early? Where does it leave you to go??

Anyway SOMETHING worked this week, be it the homemade soup, the scan bran, the cheeky Friday pizza and the subsequent cutting back or the diet plate because I lost 4lbs!!! I'm in the 12s!!!!!! Argh!!!

Wooohooo!!! :D Well done Sam :superwoman:
 
I'm thinking of utilising the positive thinking and buying my holiday swim suit tomorrow in the size 12 I WILL be in by then.
 
So I bought it. In a 12!!!

its a tad snug around the thigh tops and across the back BUT it goes on in the way that stretchy things are wont to do. It's hanging up in my line of sight in my bedroom with the size showing as a reminder to keep on going!!!!
