I’m almost
done with my second week with the weight loss group. I went along last Thursday
and got weighed in and, much to my delight, I had lost 4&1/2 lbs. It was
actually easier than I expected, although the first week was fairly full of
salad. Its taken a bit of time to get accustomed to and I have found it more
difficult to stick to the plan on week two than I did with week one, but I can
tell you exactly why. Visitors.
B’s parents came to visit for the weekend, and
as always it was lovely to see them and spend time with them, but I found
having people around called for entertaining which called for foods that are
not exactly good for me. We watched the Eurovision, a tradition for me, and I
had arranged to have healthy snacks, fruit and veg, things I love snacking on
anyway. However take-away was suggested, and I considered saying no just for
myself but I knew once the food came I’d want some and would end up pilfering from
other people’s orders. Which was followed by a box of chocolates, among other
things. The weekend was a downward slope, but I hoped starting back to the work
week on Monday would help steer me in the right direction. It didn’t. Now I
haven’t been terrible or eaten the weight I lost in Drifter’s but I haven’t
been as good as I was on week one.
I get weighed in tomorrow after work and I
am just hoping to not have gained weight. Even if I just stay the same I’ll be
more than happy. Promise to report back soon.
