If I might make a suggestion... I work out ALL my meals for the week in advance. A little obsessive, I grant you, but it's sooo much easier to follow.
These gaps you have in your menu leave you too much leeway when you get there, feel peckish, and find something...
Good luck! Getting back into it is hard but once you're there, it's GREAT

That's my girl, back on track and moving forward. You are so gonna be at target by Feb!!!! Maintainer said it all - get organised! Make sure you have protien snacks EVERYWHERE to keep you going when you feel the need to eat the biscuit or the bread - they are DEVILS FOOD!!!! LOL! I always find excuses to break my diets when I am off the rails, children being sick, 'someone' made me v cross, the horses are misbehaving, it's a birthda, party, social get together etc etc - I can come up with loads of reasons to break it but honestly it drives me nuts and the high I get when I resist is second to none!!! So on and up (or down) Rednicola - and of course I have faith in you!!

God trudy I could have written that myself ......always looking for an excuse and must have used all of those unfortunately not the horses one though
your right life is one big excuse and something will always get in the way on a daily basis but your right the feeling of beating it and learning a different way of dealing with its obstacles is definately the way forward x Thanks trudy your the best and yeah onwards & downwards for us both x

Oh crap - sorry for the language - hope you feel better Rednicola - stop beating yourself up - if you need a break maybe it is a time to go onto conso for a little bit so you limit the damage but feel a bit less restricted and therefore hopefully more in control. Fingers crossed. Thinking of you! x

Hey Nicola, really hope you're ok. I've done what trudy suggested. I was really struggling this week and just couldn't face alternate pp days so have switched to consol and it's working ok so far. I think pp was just too much for me after the Christmas excess xxxx anyway, take all the time u need. Really hope you're ok xxx

Thanks Emma & Trudy ....yeah I'm fine the choc monster has just taken me over and my willpower is shot and I kept writing my diary then blowing it and felt I was cheating everyone !!!!!!
Anyway chilling this weekend and re-reading my book and reminding myself why I want to lose this last 12lbs and how much better I feel when on plan x
And if all else fails I think that's a fabulous idea about doing Conso Trudy x
Well done too Emma it's tough getting back on it and so glad you've managed to find what's working for you, much better than doing what I've done !!!!!!
I'll definitely be back Monday as this way is the only way that works for me and it makes me feel so much better xxx

Good girl Rednicola, remember no one is putting pressure on you to 'do well' - only you can make yourself feel bad and you have nothing to beat yourself up about. Find what works best for you and go for it. There are many ways to Rome and we all get there in the end if we want to and I know you do want to........... but it's not a race or a test !!!! Enjoy the weekend and chill out! x
BTW - I really do believe the PP Thursday thing is a real winner cos if you think about it, on average, when eating our old 'normal' way we would gain 2 - 3 lbs a week on average so that PP day would wipe that out - simples!!!!! x
