Do you know, it's so long since I had the one bad day this week, it does seem rather unfair to be punished with a below par weigh-in! However, I was very bad last Monday, so although I stuck to it 100% for the rest of the week, my average daily calorie deficit was still only 596. :(
I was SO good on Saturday. We had our toddler party in during the day, which we hosted and provided a lovely festive buffet. However, not one crumb of that delicious buffet passed my lips. I just waited for them to leave and then had my Slim Fast soup. We then had my team Christmas dinner in the evening, which was at a Chinese restaurant. I passed on the fabulous banquet that everyone else was having, and instead chose Hot & Sour Soup followed by Chicken with Mange Tout and Steamed Rice. I didn't even have any wine!
So, I am a bit disappointed overall, although I suppose I should consider how much worse it could have been if I hadn't been so well behaved on Saturday!
This week's going to be quite tough, starting with a girls' night out to my favourite Italian this evening. We're away for the weekend, although going to Center Parcs, which should at least mean we do lots of exercise! Another three pounds by Christmas Eve is starting to look very tough, but I'll do my best!!

Ooh Italian is my favourite too but its so bad for a diet! Good luck! Avoid anything creamy. (Which kills me because penne carbonara is one of my favourite meals ever!) I think its really unfair that your body didnt let you off your bad day. You never know, it might help you out this week instead! :D

I think that's a really good loss - especially considering the 3.5lb loss before it!! Well done on the self control at the office party too - extremely impressive! Good luck at Centre Parcs - don't go near that place where they sell the fudge - ooh I'm drooling now just thinking about it - it was so delicious!

I'm super impressed by your resolve in the two instances above so I'm thinking maybe your discipline just hasn't "revealed itself" yet. The body is so darn uncooperative. But if you're sensitive to a big over-indulgence at least you are aware of it. Maybe try working a little treat in each day or every other day and see if that works better. Either way, I think you're looking freaking great so don't race. Just take your time and don't get so focused you forget to enjoy the holidays!

You have still done great... and still beating me!! ;o) All these parties though, they are difficult aren't they... oh gosh, I have the same problem this week. You did fantastic passing on the buffet the other day and sticking to your slim fast... so proud of you there! Just keep sticking with it and hope you have a great time at Centre Parcs! :o)

Thank you everyone!! I'm so sorry I've not been been around much this week - I've been busy socialising or preparing for Christmas every spare moment - so I haven't been able to spend time commenting on all your journals. However, I have been thinking of you all and hope you're all being good in between all the parties!! We're off on our break in an hour or so, so I need to get myself ready to go, and make sure I've packed my scales! Have a great weekend everyone!! :)
