nb girl's Journal, 25 September 2014

My weight has been gradually going the wrong way despite me keeping to plan. It has been a very stressful week, but this is life and s**t happens, we've just got to get on with it!

Over the past 3 days or so, my emotions have been raw and I've found myself on the hunt for comfort foods. Monday was bad and my calories were high, though fat and carb ratio were on the money! Tuesday was an OK day, and surprisingly the scales didn't jump up in retaliation of the (minor) binge. Though yesterday I weighed in 3lb heavier than the last time I logged my weight on FS.

Yesterday we attended the 'Celebration Lunch' of our friend that passed over the weekend, and I was so pleased with myself for sticking to carbonated water. The food was gorgeous, though I limited myself to eating just parma ham, 2 buffalo wings, a couple slices of cheese and half a dozen olives. I was really proud of myself, plus no one noticed that I wasn't tucking in.

After the 'party' we went straight to our weekly dog training class. Training was outside, and in a horrible thunderstorm.

I got home about 8.30pm, cold, wet and hungry! I was at a low ebb, and the portion of French fries that somehow presented itself, was just too much! I know, I know, excuses, excuses!

So I'm up this morning bright(ish) and ready to turn over the proverbial page!

I've updated my food diary for yesterday and was presently surprised! My calorie count was way down, and my fat vs carb count was presentable! If only those French fries hadn't appeared in my life!

This morning I'm dropping my husband off at the airport for a 6 day trip, leaving me home alone, just me and the dog who needs a good walk twice a day (my dog is a young German Shepherd).

So if I plan my week right, I've got time to sort my head out, get back on track, watch and listen to some motivational YouTube's and podcasts, and get some good exercise in!

Onwards and upwards everyone.

Oh and BTW, quite a few friends were at the gathering that I'd not seen in a while, asked if I had lost weight! Yeahhhhh

Sorry to hear about your friend, but I am glad that you aren't stressing over the weight gain and are jumping back in with both feet.

Sorry about all the challenges in your life right now...but I am glad you have gone through it with more grace than many might have done. Don't sweat the fries. In the scheme of this whole thing it is a blip that will soon be forgotten. The dog will be great to keep you moving on a regular basis. Our dog gets me out at least twice a day for a 15 minute walk. Rain, shine, snow, or wind. Most days I am grateful for that. There are a few days a year, when the walk is quick and short! We have trained her to "do her business". That helps on those miserable days. :-)
