Danger Danger...Weekend of Food Ahead

Hello all, so quick update...week is going really well. Have been keeping to my allowance and the scales are looking good as they are moving down! I have been to the gym 3 times so far this week and this morning I did 30 minutes running straight, I was sweating after and had to push through it but I wasn't keeling over when I finished....so I think one more run the same and then I will increase my speed...at the moment I am doing 4.4mph so will push it up to 4.5 and see how I do if I don't find it makes a difference the 1st time I will go up to 4.6...#PROGRESS! 

The one thing I am so worried about, that is really going to put a spanner in the works, is this weekend....We are having a family weekend and all getting together as we haven't seen each other for awhile....I am really looking forward to it....but the whole weekend is geared towards food...and I know I can still control myself and not eat everything... but I do love food and I love a celebration....

Tonight we are going for a Chinese Eat As Much as You Like..the chinese we are going to is so good and I adore their duck pancakes...when I am there I just need to remember that I don't have to eat everything and don't have to eat until I pop... this is not the last chinese I will ever have and if I really want more I can taste the same things again whenever I want...I know that sounds ridiculous to say but I think sometimes I feel like I have to eat as much as I can as quickly as I can before someone takes it all away and  I can never have it again...

Tomorrow we are having a picnic for lunch...(should be ok)..Cake and tea at 4.00pm which should again be ok as I will just say NO to the cake..then in the evening we are having a raclette.. I love a raclette....for those that don't know it's a bit like a Fondu but you melt your own cheese....it's a French thing and you have a grill with a top that you can put things on...but then you also have little holders that you can put things in and grill it underneath...the main things you have is a special raclette cheese which you melt over things like chorizo, potatoes, mushrooms ...etc...its amazing...but of course very fattening. 



Then on Sunday we are having a BBQ, I am actually not too worried about the BBQ as although a lot is cooked I can quite easily avoid the foods I don't want as well as not eat masses... 



So as you can see nearly the whole weekend revolves around food....and seeing as I have my weigh in on Monday mornings it would be ridiculous to think that this weekend isn't going to have an effect on the scales. I am doing all I can to make sure I can still keep control on my eating... I know some of you won't approve but today I am just having two Slim-Fast Shakes (Breakfast and Lunch) and some fruit as I know I will be eating a lot this evening and I don't want to go massively go over my allowance...and I also plan on going to the gym tomorrow and Sunday as well... I know you can't work off a bad diet but it will help...even if it's only a bit...All I can do is be conscious of what I am eating and not go overboard....wish me luck!!
