It's been a while ...

Right, hello there, I'm back now!  Been ill the last week or so with gastroenteritis.  That kind of thing should have accelerated my weight loss but unfortunately I was just in lots of pain and didn't have any of the other, err, symptoms!

I've been feeling really weak and washed out with it so I've been eating lots of comfort food and 'build up' foods, but I weighed myself yesterday and have lost a pound so am now 12st 12lbs.  At least I'm now back in the 12's, that feels much better. 

Me and hubby are out at the cinema tonight to see Skyfall (spookily enough, Adele is playing on the radio as I type this) and then out for dinner, then off to Barbacoa (Jamie Oliver restaurant) tomorrow night so things will get back on the SW track on Tuesday.

Here's wishing everyone a good week on their weigh loss journey x

Day 12

Ooh, forgot to post this one ...

Well, it's been a few days since I've been on here, and a few days since I've stuck to plan!  Sunday started well but then we had a massive roast dinner with lots of family over so I had delicious roast chicken but then had lots of roast potatoes, bread sauce, gravy, oh the list goes on!  I also made a fab lemon cheesecake and had a slice of that.

Monday and Tuesday weren't much better.  On Monday I took hubby for a surprise spa 'weekend' at Eastwell Manor in Kent and had dinner at the hotel which was amazing.  It's not Michelin starred, but it should be.  I had quite a lot of alcohol (!), then pan fried scallops, peas and pancetta followed by chateaubriand, chips, mushroom and bearnaise sauce followed by lemon sorbet with cherry 'soup'.  It was the most amazing meal I've had in a long time.  Oh, and I finished it off with an amaretto coffee.

Tuesday was a full fry up at the hotel with pastries and cereal.  On the way home we stopped off for a pub lunch and I had mac & cheese, but I didn't have any dinner in the evening.

So that brings me to today - Wednesday.  I thought I'd get on the scales to see how much damage had been done, and I've lost half a pound!!  It must have been all the massages I had over the last couple of days.

So, today I've had:

Breakfast - 2 slices wholemeal toast and scrambled egg
Lunch -
Dinner -
