Just congratulating myself for sticking to plan so well yesterday and remembering the exact same day last year (or poss year before??!!) when I took SW friendly stuff but ended up gorging on sandwiches and crisps that they supplied. This year it was so nice to enjoy my own lunch (ice packs make SUCH a difference to packed lunches on a day out - in Asda 2 for £1.50 at the moment) and indulge in my (planned) Candyfloss without feeling any kind of guilt at all.

Tomorrow (Friday) could be difficult as it's Charlies 19th Birthday and his mum has sent cakes in to share. I'm hoping that Em will let me be the one to take the transitions group to college so I'm not there for the party. Friday night I intend to buy in some nice soft drink, have a Green day style roast dinner, and watch the program that I missed last Sunday so me and OH can enjoy episode 2 together before he decides to watch it on his own.

Saturday I'm out with Mum. She's very good, so will encourage me to stick to plan. Maybe some nice fruit from the market; a take away coffee (skinny latte) in the park with an Alpen light... will think about it. She's off on hols soon so will want to look good in her new swimsuit. Looking forward to seeing her. Saturday night will be the danger zone!!

Sunday in intended to be housework and school work day. I will need will power in great big bundles to make this the case. If anyone has some to spare, please send it my way!!
