? Litres water.

I keep falling off the wagon and I think it's because I'm too strict and not eating enough of the right foods, so then I start to crave sweet things and it overtakes me. I also buy lowlow chilli cheese, which I love, but I can't have just a bit I have to eat the whole tub, so I am going to stop buying it.

I am drinking far to many fizzy drinks and no water. Today I am going to start tracking water and replacing some of the fizzy drinks with it.

I have 10 days before I'm off on holiday so I will try very hard as it's an all inclusive holiday, which definitely means I will gain.

Oh dear. I have fallen off the wagon big style :(. I go on holiday in 9 days and nothing fits. I am going to try and be reasonably good until I go and then when I'm back I am going to follow the plan to the letter, as I will be on a 20 week count down to my next holiday. That one we are going with some old army friends who I haven't seen since I was much slimmer.

I am also 50 next year, so I want to kiss good by to the fat and frumpy 40s and say welcome to the slim and glamorous 50s ;).

So back to today. I think that I should write about how I feel on here, as well as what I eat. That way I will be able to pinpoint my triggers.

This morning I am feeling optimistic :).

Today's Plan

B: banana ✔, yogurt

S: melon✔, kiwi✔

L: Subway tuna salad (4)

S: apple

D: chicken salad with mayonnaise light (4)

S: 2 Benefit bars (B.), 250ml semi skimmed milk (A)

Well I went back to slimming world last night and have gained 9 lb in four weeks, one of those I was on holiday - all inclusive. I now weigh 245lbs the heaviest I have been in years. To commiserate I then went home and ordered a large pizza and ate half of it :(.

Finished off other half today. Back on plan tomorrow :).
