Well done on getting straight back on plan after your day out on Sunday. Good luck on your journey.
 
Thanks ktdd18

Weighed myself this morning and have STS at 10.6 so suppose after Sunday that's not bad. Also it's that time of the month and feeling pretty bloated. Onwards and downwards, planning a really good 100% week!

Aiming to reduce cheese intake as seem to be having it most days, up my veg and up my water reducing coffee and diet coke!
