After my shock loss last week I went home feeling back in the game, with less tooth pain, and ready to rock the week; it didn’t last long though. I just can’t seem to get back in the groove lately. I am on plan a lot of the time but then I will just give in to temptation and it all goes to pot. Though on a positive spin, I have got myself out of the mindset that “Oh well, I’ve had this <insert naughty food here> now, I may as well just carry on!”. Instead I think, no, I can do this, I will be back on plan as much as I can. For example yesterday, I was deadly in need of chocolate but instead of going in the cupboard to my syn bin, I had a banana instead – yay me! I do need to start meal planning again though, but I think I will do so when we have moved in a couple of weeks.

Some of my Insta-posts from this week:

So on to weigh in… In all honesty, I did go expecting a gain as we were out for dinner on Sunday and I was naughty, and then we had a takeaway curry on Monday, the day before weigh in! I would have been very lucky if I had lost anything. So I was very happy when I stepped on the scales to see a maintain. Obviously I would have preferred a loss as I only needed that half a pound to get my 2.5st, but it is better than a gain.

I think I was also fairly happy as I had two NSV’s this week too…

I’ve been trying to get into this dress for the last two years. Last year I couldn’t even quite fasten the zip at the back and it clung to every lump & bump! Now it’s baggy and I managed to get it over my head without unfastening! (And it’s a size 14!) Thank you @slimmingworld! #slimmingworld #slimmingworlduk #sw #swuk #swfamily #swfriends #swsupport #swmafia #weightloss #weightlossjourney #nsv #mynsv #nonscalevictory #mynonscalevictory
