Weigh in this week is totally what I was expecting as I didn't do very well last week and this weekend was awful food-wise So I came in bang on 196 AGAIN..not where I want to be but alot better than I was expecting!!! This week I am going to get re-focused remember the never fully taught lesson that you can never relax..not even for a moment.
I had an excellent weekend with so much food and far far far to much drinking...one thing that I really do need to curb. Friday Biggy and I went to a friends for dinner in Oxford and had some really yummy rolled beef which was divine followed by a few bottles of wine and then we went out to a Bar we all used to know really well... it was good going back...mainly to see how far I have come and but also because I was able to put some old thoughts to rest. Without sounding cheesy defiantly got closure on a few things which was good and it was so good to see the friends we had dinner with ... they are the kind of people you can not see for a year and then pick up exactly where you left off... We were talking about how we are getting older and how life changes and your priorities change, then we were saying how we never go out anymore so we came up with the plan to go out then and there... we all drunk so much and all had massive hangovers the next day... I was actually sick on the way home the next day which never happens to me...it was not good. We got home and went straight back to bed. I then had to get back up again at 4ish to start to get ready to go to London....
London was so good as well, I was seeing an old school friend and staying at hers and we went to the most amazing restaurant called Cucina Asellina (Recent review of Cucina Asellina), it was in a beautiful very funky looking hotel and the restaurant decor was so plush and the food great quality but with high-street prices. I would defo go back...I should have taken photos of everything but to be honest I was feeling a bit too hungover still...I had calamari for starters followed by an amazing Italian sausage, cheese and basil pizza and then finished it off with a liquor coffee. It really was AMAZEBALLS! The next day we went out for brunch and I had Eggs Florentine with Hash Browns as well as Fruit Smoothie and coffee, the Eggs Florentine were so good and something I am going to try to do at home...

The thing that topped off my whole weekend was the feeling of feeling good in myself (apart from when I felt sick!)... on Friday I was really happy with my outfit and was feeling good, young and hip. When we got to the bar it was really hot and I just threw off my cardigan without holding on to it for dear life because of worrying about my arms and on Saturday night I felt really put together and fashionable where as normally when I go to London I feel like country bumpkin and that everybody is looking at me and laughing...for the first time in along time I felt that people were looking at me for the right reasons and not the wrong reasons...half of this is due to my new wardrobe which I am really happy with. I have got everything I need for the moment and really do feel like I can throw anything on... the only problem is that is has truly cleared out my account and I literally have no money until payday and am going to have to tell Biggy....so...feel free to make donations!
I might not have time to post tomorrow as Biggy's father is over and we are having a big meet between families for the first time......nervous doesn't even cover it....
