For as long as I have been trying to lose weight, my weekends have been my low points. I always feel I should be having treats at weekends, like taking kids to park and having an ice cream, eating take aways or fast food.

I would be healthy all week and then blow it on a weekend.

Well this last weekend was the only one I can remember where I didn't do this!! I have just dropped in to a lower stone at my weigh in on Thursday and I knew I would have been so dissapointed to be back up in to the higher stone after the weekend so I just didn't do it!!

I still had a couple of treats in the evening, but they were small and I made sure I was still within my daily calories goal.

And the scaled have actually moved down after this weekend instead of up for the first time every!!! Yay! I certainly enjoyed seeing the scale more down more than any of these high calorie treats that I didn't have so hopefully I can now get in that mind frame every weekend!

    Well done .... keep the momentum going and remind yourself when next weekend comes round that one weekend is an abnormality, two is a pattern and three will be a habit.
