What a Weekend

Firstly.. I drank over the weekend... so I only managed 3 days with no alcohol.... but still pretty pleased with 3 days...now going to push it forward to 5 days....
 
Had a great weekend... On Friday we met up with 2 friends (a couple) and went out for dinner... we managed to sit outside which was so nice and we had such a  good time.. my cheeks were actually hurting at the end from laughing so much. It was so nice to spend time with people and know that they were 100% genuine and truly friends... after the last few days of questioning myself it was nice...to relax and feel myself.
 
Then on Saturday morning we went over to my parents house as we had a few people coming over to give quotes about marquees and things... that was really exciting as making "the Big Day" a lot more real... then stayed for a lovely lunch and then sunbathing at home for the rest of the afternoon with a good book...
 
Sunday...Biggy's friend came up for lunch and due to the heat I just did Tapas style food but it was all relatively healthy...we also had champagne as Biggy hadn't seen her for a few years...after lunch we all headed into Windsor and took a boat trip up the Thames which was really nice and then finished off with some Pimms watching people go by... Sunday night both Biggy and I were quite tired and had raging headaches due to the heat and the champagne and Pimms so just took it easy and tried to keep cool....
 
I got on the scales on Sunday morning and saw 184lbs which I was thrilled about...but then got on the scales this morning and to be honest just got confused... when I fist stood on them it was 189lbs...then I got on them again and it was 184lbs... then somewhere in the middle... so I don't really know what I am today... My scales are the old style scales so I do stand on them about 4 times to be able to get an average as some times like today it all changes and other times it will keep on saying the same thing like yesterday...I do have digital scales but they are Weight Watchers ones and add about 7lbs to my weight...I'm tempted to start using them as they are probably more accurate in regards to actual variation in weight and don't really want to go and buy ANOTHER set of scales... I do partly think that if I did have a gain it was due to the alcohol on Sunday...
 
In regards to plans for the week.. I really want to keep with the high Protein and also want to try and incorporate the 5:2 plan on Tuesday and Thursday... I have just over 2 weeks to be able to hit my goal of -3lbs for my Wedding time line...confident I can hit it...just need to keep on the same plan stay away from alcohol for the week and hit the gym...

  1. Your weekend sounds great and the drinking sounds like what it should be; a fun addition to a nice social event, not an end in itself to force you to "have fun"!

    Keep it going hon.
