Bank Holiday Weekend

The final Bank holiday of the year & I managed to stay in control for once.
If anything I would have to say I perhaps didnt eat enough. Managed the gym on Friday night and worked really hard, then just had fruit & chicken for tea when I got in.
Depressed myself on Saturday and nipped up to Mcarthur Glenn (J28) to go to the addidas shop, got a great top from the Nike shop and some Fab new Reebok trainers, but the Addidas shop was a disaster, bought some cropped leggins for spinning and couldnt even get them over my hips and then got a Vest top that shows up every one of my rolls of flab !!! This has motivated me cause I now have to go back there again next weekend.
Then on monday someone took a few pictures of me at Moorgreen Show, with the cattle and posted them on Facebook and I look like I did when I was 22 stone !! Yet more motivation.
Add to that the motivation of beeing dumped by the bloke you thought was going to be your soul mate for the rest of your life and being on your own again at 38 and you should have shit loads of motiation .....
I have filled my food diary in religiously for the last week and I am going to keep that up as well, so its a big fingers crossed for a good loss tonight to restart me.

A very good week so far

So far I have made the gym every night this week and ate brilliantly. I am so motivated this week, just wished i could have this much resolve every week.
Went out last night and had steak salad and asked for it with no chips no jacket potatoe no peas no mushrooms and no onion rings and no salad dressing. My friend sat and ate a pudding and I had a black coffee, it felt to be that much in control and the food was really nice. I did have a sachet of mayonaise which I looked up this morning and it was 4½ syns... OMG . Just got to keep this up over the weekend then weigh in on Tuesday should be a breeze.
My personal circumstances have changed slightly (ie been dumped yet again) so i can be more focused on me an my weight loss and exercise.
Having a man in my life has made me drop that focus and cook nice food for him, which i consequentially eat as well. All that now is over his choice and I am gutted but that is the way it is. Cattle show this weekend but I am going to stay focused and in control

Weigh in w/c 23/08/10

A disappointing pound on but I am not going to let that defeat me as I know why it happened. Getting the hours back in at the gym, and looking to do the same again this week but end the week on a loss. I know it is Bank Holiday and could potentially be a situation where Alcohol may be required, but I am going to try my hardest to avoid it.
I have had a very traumatic few days but still made it to weigh in and the gym. I have to turn my life round, and I know I can do it.
If I have a good loss next week i will start to put it down again and update my ticker. Allthough I am not actually sure if any one at all reads this.

Weigh in This week & WHats been happening

This week weigh in was much better and my hard work did pay off and I got the loss of 3½ lbs that i deserved and I was finally Slimmer of the Week. Havent had that award since March 2010 and This week I earnt every bit of it. Been at Bakewell show all week so no gym and wont get till Sunday now, but i havent been too far off plan diet wise and yesterday didnt have too much to eat, just got to hold it together over the weekend, and stay focused and on track.

I am keeping up with my food diary which is helping and I have the desire to do this again, so things are all good.
