Day 92 - success & the benefits of being childless (temporarily of course!)

This is yesterday's blog as I can't write coherently after 11pm - some might say I can't do it before but I don't really do it for them!!

Yesterday was my last weigh day before our holiday & I lost 1lb (actually the pound I put on last week) so my total pre-holiday loss is 1st 1lb in 13 weeks. I'm very pleased about this as the way I was going I would have been a lot heavier and almost certainly miserable at the thought of it!!

Don't get me wrong I'm fully aware I have a long way to go but I'm entitled (I think) to be pleased with myself so far!!

So now for the tricky bit because in my head I'm on holiday already - a bit like the kids being on holiday from school BUT I have a week to go before we fly so need to be very careful this week.

That's of course the theory & if I followed that I probably wouldn't need to blog!!! So yesterday I left class positive and determined not to blow it :-)

I didn't do too badly but I did learn something - my body can't tolerate the fat anymore!!!

I had a fried egg sandwich for lunch - three eggs fried in butter on chollah (no butter) plus a black coffee. Bearing in mind I'd been up since 6 as I took Dom & Dan to Luton airport & then straight to SW so no breakfast this wasn't bad but note the high fat content!!

During the afternoon I had a large bowl of berries with FF nat yoghurt and lots of squash.
I also printed & posted the invitations for dad's 80th - my niece did a great job designing them!

Andrew came home early from work so we decided to go out to eat before the theatre. We went to the cafe in Regents Park - very nice if you haven't been there.
I had smoked salmon served with pickled cucumber salad & sour cream sauce, followed by grilled mackerel, sorrel & new potatoes with a side portion of broccoli
It was all delicious but in my head I was on hols so had all the sour cream sauce & suspect the veggies were all cooked in butter.

The show we saw 'Crazy for You' was great but sadly the focus of my evening was slightly switched as the effect of all that fat was 'dramatic' :-(

Suffice to say - I've learned my lesson.

Have a good day xx
