WEEK 52, 1 YEAR AND I MADE MY 70LB (5ST) TARGET!
I have completely binged since lunch to celebrate - a 1/2 day of the "old" me! Manged to drink 1/4 of a large bottle of vodka and feeling great!
2 St 'til I get to goal, but perhaps a bit more, who knows!
My next target is to get into the 10s before my bro's wedding on 29th and my birthday on 30th August - only 5.5lb to go, so should be able to do it (realisticallt, would like to lose 1st bt then, well it is 10 weeks)
Have a good weekend, i'm shopping tomorrow in london for a dress for my mum to wear to the wedding, i'm waiting until the last minute ...

OH DEAR, OH DEAR
Well, although I did not count my points on Friday, I know that I must have gone over my around 20 points! But I did have a great time - only lost £32! I gave up on the Wendie Plan and decided to go for total damage limitation and since then I have been eating 16 points per day, of which, tomorrow will be my last. There's a picture of me before the races!
On Thursday, I am going to a breakfast at Butcher's Hall for the Lord Mayor of the City of London - I know that it will be a typical "English Breakfast", but that it is silver service, so I can easily control what I eat. I planned to have 9.5 points - a massive breakfast!
Come Friday, I will be starting a-fresh with the renewed vigour on the Wendie Plan - I will not go over my points whatsoever either!
I wonder how WI goes - quite ominous to hope for a loss, me thinks!

Bad Day
I decided to repoint everything I had during my binge on Saturday, it turned out I had, in fact, gone 14.5 points over! That was the first bad thing. I realised that I could only made up 10 of those points before the end of the week, so I decided that I would use 4.5 of my bonus points - I try to use my bonus points from exercise, but I this time I had to!
Second bad thing - I had a "fat" day today - which just makes me want to eat more. I had consumed 12.5 points after I had eaten my lunch!
Third bad thing - stressing out about not being able to weigh-in this week!
Fourth bad thing - I have a lot of pressure at work and when I stress, I just want to eat chocolate. I made it until 3:45, but then I reached for the chocolate - all 5 points of it, in my mouth and eaten within 60 seconds. OINK OINK OINK - that left me with 1.5 points for my dinner (I had planned to have a dinner worth 8 points!), so when I got in this evening from my PT session, it was a WW tomato soup with a piece of WW bread for 1.5 points, I also 2 strawberries and 5 raspberries (0 points).
I am now firmly drawing a line - I have decided to go to Boots at lunch time and use their weighing machine tomorrow to weigh in. I am also going to point what I eat and drink on Friday and I will not go over my points, even if that means only having two glasses of champagne! I WILL NOT EAT ANY NIBBLES AT THE RECEPTION! I am not going to ruin 50 weeks of hard works and I WILL MAKE MY 5 STONE TARGET WEIGHT LOSS BY WEEK 52!
This will be my mantra for the next few days ... it will get me through!

Busy times ...
I have been extremely busy over the past week, which is good - stops me thinking about food. I had one major catastrophe - Saturday night: 10 points over. I have one more day (tomorrow) of eating two points less and then I have made it up, so fingers crossed!
I am also missing my WI this week as I am going to the Ladies' Day at Epsom. I have decided to go off plan for this day, as I can't really plan what I will be eating or drinking, but I will definitely make sensible choices - hopefully it will be a good day. I have a lovely (size 14 OMG) dress and have had a matching fascinator made - who knows? I could win the Jeep (but doubt it very much!
Have a good one ... I will keep you all posted about how Friday goes (WW wise and generally)!

A GOOD END TO THE WEEK!
(1) I lost 1 lb at weigh in
(2) Booked by holiday up
(3) I've got three more weeks until I've been doing WW for a year and I think I can make my 5st mini-target by then - what a nice way to round an excellent year off!
(4) Nice weather for the weekend
On Wednesday, I managed to get into a spin class at the gym. It was the first time I had done it in a year and I was very nervous before, but I loved it! Will definitely be going again.
Thursday was just another day, nothing out of the ordinary.
Today, following my weigh in, I have been feeling so positive. I even treated myself to some chocolate (but within my daily points allowance). My first holiday for the year is booked. It's a fitness holiday in the Austrian Alps - I am so looking forward to it, roll on July. All meals are provided at the Hotel and they even cater to people doing weight watchers, giving you the points values for your food. Not much of a holiday, you may think, but I am just so focused and I don't want to ruin all my hard work before my brother's wedding, so I thought this would be a happy medium - a week off work, abroad, nice weather (I hope), nice scenery, but I can still focus! BUT do not worry, I will be off to Morocco in September for a "relaxing" holiday.
I'm off to two BBQs this weekend - I'll report on the outcome on Monday.
Hope you guys have a nice relaxing weekend - chill!

Boredom Eater
Well today was slow at work and I just felt the continual urge to snack. I had anticipated this and decided to build in lots of low point snacks into my plan (an apple, a nectarine, pack of fruities and a fruit bar) - so I did manage to stick to my 18 point plan.
Just got back from Body Combat and burnt 495 calories.
I am just so worried about weigh in this week - I hope all goes well, but after my binge-fest I think I deserve to put weight on :(

Lovely Weekend BUT ...
I have had a really nice weekend - what was meant to be relaxing, turned into me not having a moment to stop.
The bad thing was, I went 8 points over yesterday - but a girls gotta have fun, right? I drunk too much vodka and when that happens, I stop caring. BUT I got up this morning and pointed EVERYTHING. I have decided to claw back 6 points today by eating 14 points and then the other 2 tomorrow by eating 18 points. I know that I have accumulated enough bonus points to cover this, but I try not to eat them, I would rather eat slightly less for a few days to make up.
Back to work tomorrow :( I've got some Hungarian Goulash Soup cooking at the moment for my lunch tomorrow - the recipe is from e-source for only 2 points, it seems quite wholesome and filling. I've also cooked myself a chilli with the remaining mince (only 75g), so that is me sorted for tomorrow.
I managed to burn 196 calories on a bike ride to the newsagents today.
Have a great week - it's only a short one!
