    so yesterday went abit wrong, after having my dinner, completing my diary for the day and sat ready to chill out for the night with a cuppa my dad text to say he was picking me up as we were going to pub.

    it was my "uncle's" (dads best friend since he was a kid, practically a brother) anniversary of his death (6 years) and we always go for a drink for him on the day, problem is Id completely forgoten what the day was let alone the date so had not save any calories for a few drink..........

    so, 2 pints of larger, 2 large wines, a double g&t and a double archers and lemonade later I was well over my daily count.
    I then got home at 1am (oops) and was starving so ate a pack of cheesey doritos.

    anyway, im puttint all that behind me.....mainly on my *kitten* ;)
    and today has been a much better day, chicken curry for dinner later, all weighed, logged and still in my daily goal

    Was pleased to stay the same with the 4th cookouts last week. Up a lb or two the day after but lost it by my weighin day.

    Successes/struggles this week: So apparently last weeks' weight loss must've just not matched up with weigh-in day. So my success is that I've surpassed my July challenge weight but have made the decision to change my ultimate GW from 140 to 130, so I'll keep on working down with you all. Updating a day early because we're out all day tomorrow at the town fair and I will certainly forget to check the community at the end of the day!

    I thought I'd posted on June 30th and last week but I can't find my original posts so I'm using what's logged on my phone app... I really want to be at 135 by August but am having a difficult time getting outside in the heat ... Any suggestions? I was walking late at night but then wasn't getting enough sleep.

    Slow month. I hope that's because I'm closer to goal, but I'm still 15 lbs. in "overweight" territory and I don't seem that close to goal! Well, perseverance anyway. I feel great. I look . . . more reasonable. My doctors are ecstatic.
