Next week is going to be a challenge

I am on leave for a week and have the kids on holidays, so I have great fear in my heart that it is likely to be a bad week, a very very bad dieting week, I am doomed, doomed I tell you!

Firstly being off work, I have the attention span of a flea, and get very bored very quickly. In particular I get bored when in the house with nothing to keep me busy. Luckily working in the evenings generally keeps me away from the fridge the majority of the time. However this week I have 6 long evenings with no work ( one visit to Pizza Express and one visit to the local thai for my birthday booked in). So that's 2 evenings of pigging out full on, and 4 evening of boredom picking at anything that stays still, looks edible and is not mouldy.

Then we have the kids on holiday, I am sure we will be very active, but sadly there are also just too many pitfalls. Country park visits, and their evil cakes calling to me, don't even get me started on the bacon sarnies. After a long drive to get to a country park there is nothing like a cup of tea and a sarnie to give me the energy to face the kids. Cinema visits with their fizzy drinks, sweets and popcorn temptations. Trips to the local cafĂ© to get out the house when I am at risk of throttling the kids. Then we have the kids friends coming over, they entertain my kids, so I get bored and guess what I eat. Finally we have the play park and the ice creams, ummm toffee crumbles my favourite.

Next weekend I am likely to be back up to 12 and a half stone!
