    Fell off the wagon for a few days - a lot going on this week, have been very busy campaigning!

    Back on it now though....

    Today's commitment: stick within calories. Keep it simple.

    @TerriRichardson112 Have fun on your trip to Dublin! So lovely to go on a trip with your daughters, how great is that? Any chance you would PM me with your thoughts & opinions on the EU vote? The whole world is on tenterhooks over it, and I am very interested.

    I was late with everything today. I the chores on my to-do list, but did not exercise. I've got to come up with a routine that I'll stick with. Personal training is working out well, but I'm not going to do that part the fall.

    Hmm so I've fallen off the bandwagon somewhat the last few days!

    Think it's slightly because of having an emotional time, however I also think this has happened to me before when I've started dieting again - I've been really motivated for the first couple of weeks, then got disheartened as it gets harder to lose the weight.

    Previously that's led to the diet failing entirely, however that's not going to happen this time! I'm going to continue with it, and not allow myself to get disheartened by slow progress - any progress is better than none, and if I do make no progress I'll look at my diary carefully to figure out why. I'll also be more patient - sometimes it can look like you've made no progress but actually it's random fluctuation that is hiding progress. This is a diet for life - I need to stop expecting quick results!

    Today I will:

    - stick to my calories
    - go to gym, even if just for a short workout - and i won't eat back the calories
    - eat some vegetables!!!!
