Back

I arrived back from my week at the coast this afternoon. I've really enjoyed myself but it is still good to be home. Even though I've enjoyed everyday to the two week break from work, I am still glad to be going back to my daily routine tomorrow.



I have logged my calories everyday and have also walked each day. I can't believe I've gone through Easter and my birthday without falling of track. It is a miracle and something that I have never managed in the past. I really feel that this time is going to be different. I am so focused and have already lost more weight than any other 'eating plan' I've been on. I don't know why I feel different this time but I do.



On the day of my birthday I even allowed myself to have anything I fancied. But I didn't want anything enough to spoil the hard work I'd put it. We went out for brunch and I picked a lovely brie, cranberry & orange panini.............








.............looks lovely doesn't it? It was, but all the time I was eating it, I was thinking I don't really need this. I felt like I had to have a treat for my birthday. We went to the pub and I had four glasses of red wine and then for dinner I picked steamed salmon and veggies and a Weight Watchers Belgian Chocolate Cake Slice (which was divine). I refused 'real' cake twice and seeing as cake is my absolute favourite food of all time, I am proud of myself for resisting.

Here are my totals for the week - I normally log my calorie intake daily on SP but it is time consuming to go back and list for a whole week so I am listing here instead so I am still tracking.

Monday 1415 cals/10 mins walking
Tuesday 1430 cals/20 mins walking
Wednesday 1123 cals/30 mins walking
Thursday 1810 cals/90 mins walking
Friday 1895 cals/20 mins walking
Saturday 2138 cals/10 min walking (my birthday)

I am crossing my fingers for my weigh in tomorrow!
