Seem to have magically lost a few pounds, very odd

As you know I have been in a bit of a dieting funk and was a little down at still being a hefferlump for when we go away on holiday next month. I am not being obsessive about the weight thing, I just would like a little space to eat like a piggy while away and not come back at my original 12st 7 weight.

The Isle of Wight is a haven for lovely food, if you put me within a mile of a lovely seafood platter, dressed crab or pint o prawns I will sniff them out just like a blood hound, I am powerless to resist the call of the seafood. Knowing this does add a little pressure to shift some pounds over the next month.

With my new contract starting on Monday, a fully chicken poxed up baby and the Easter holidays here I have seriously got a fail on the dieting front. I think my diet over the last week has been about 80% chocolate, 10% yoghurt and 10% bananas, not exactly the NHS eatwell plate!

 

 

By some kind of miracle I have been still going in the right direction and am now at about 11st 8lb, now that is good news!

 



Ben and Jerry have a heck of a lot to answer for

Today I was no angel, but I was doing relatively ok. In fact I was starting to wonder if it was possible to get the diet back on track.

Then evil little Ben and Jerry snuck in under the wire, took a swipe at my knees and knocked me off my feet, leaving me defenceless against their temptation. I hate chocolate ice cream, I know its shocking I love chocolate but don't like it being messed with. However the Phish food ice cream is an exception to this rule, its bleeding lovely.

I had all 4 kids today, we had a car disaster and had to cough up nearly £200 for a new handbrake thing, last night I just couldn't sleep and somehow managed to knock out my fake tooth at some point in the middle of the night. So its no wonder that I struggled a little to get my work done this evening.

I got it done ( and all kids in bed/ all housework at a sub toxic level) so what is a girl to do with an evening stretching ahead of her. Well surely any normal girl would reach for a glass of wine, a half tub of ice cream and a action movie, yeah baby!

So morning 9 out of 10 for being the dieting queen, evening probably somewhere in the minus100 out of 10 region.

It wasn't me it was the ice cream it made me do it....
