Unconditional Support Group - July

rubbish, pants and words to that effect! after a bit of an absence i started back up last week and was doing really well until friday, when i had to go back home for the weekend as i had been asked to be god parent to my friends little boy and it was his christening on sunday, so this meant staying with my parents who really don't care about food, and despite them knowing about me wanting to loose weight and my dad constantly commenting on the fact that i was putting weight on, pizza from the take away was what they had decided on for dinner and it was a downhill spiral from there, i accompanied the pizza with onion rings and a bottle of red wine (yes i said bottle, and yes i did feel rough the next day), on saturday i went shopping with mum and it was half 2 before we realised we'd not eaten and mum bless her suggested the chinese buffet that had opened up near by that she hadn't tried yet so of course we went and tried it! didn't eat anything that night or repeat the red wine lol. sunday came and it was crumpets for breakfast then i got myself ready and headed off to whitby (a lovely seaside town on the north east coast of england) for the ceremony. i got there early as my other half had asked me to get him a stick of rock and the tourists can be a right pain to plough through when you are in a hurry, and then i realised that it was only a buffet after the christening and i had a minimum of a three hour drive home and i didn't think a couple of curled up sandwiches would last me till i got home and that was depending on me getting home at a reasonable hour that would allow me to eat before bed. so i grabbed a small bag of chips (fries) to get a bit more food in me for the day (there isn't much else in the way of food available to grab in whitby unless you consider ice cream and candy floss food). the ceremony was lovely the baby didn't cry and the buffet weas huge!!! i forgot that the baby's father was american and had access to american foods on the airforce base he was stationed at! i tried my best at limiting my food intake but at the same time thinking that what i had may have to last me until monday morning. and then the self control went out the window when the desert section was opened and somebody had made rocky road cheesecake, and i must say that it was not a small slice and i ate it all i enjoyed every single mouthfull of it and i felt extrememly sick afterwards. needless to say i didn't track this weekend, and i'm struggling to get back ontrack now i also gained a pound although i do think a lot of that is water weight as the morning i went away i had lost half a pound.

hopefully my new heart rate monitor will arrive this week and motivate me again. i really wish i hadn't decided to start again last week knowing full well what i was in for at the weekend its totally demotivated me

Oh my gosh!!! Went shopping this weekend and the new jeans are a size 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
