This week was all about the awareness of complacency. This rung SO true with me, especially over the last few weeks. I had realised that I had got into a rut and thought that I knew what I was doing. I have been doing this since September 2015 and only have managed to lose 2 stone up until now. Stuck between 13st 1 and 13 st 7 for the last few weeks, and it hasn't done much for my self confidence. I put on 0.5lb this week, after an initial gain of 2.5lb at the previous weigh-in. I was truly gutted. My leader was right, I had come too far to slip back into my old habits. I 'thought' that I had a good week, and then it slowly dawned on me that I had eaten so many extras, plus a breakfast at Wetherspoons and going to the rugby in Rochdale. This meant that I hadn't been as good as I thought, and the reason? I wasn't writing it all down. Boy that has made such a difference! Jot Spot What will I say yes to this week? I will say yes to playing with my two daughters outside in the street a whole lot more, earning more fitpoints in the process. This will then give me more energy, and make me happier. How adventurous am I? I can't say that I am that adventurous, but I am willing to give something like Ceroc a try, or Zumba. I have booked a 1 hour session at the start of July as part of my work's Staff Wellbeing event. I hope to like it and not make too much of an idiot of myself. Could I say yes more often? I think I could to be honest. I say no to things way too often, and I hope to change soon. Which new healthy ideas would I like to try? As above, I would like to try new dance class, such as Ceroc or Salsa, something fun. I have now heard of Aqua Zumba, which sounds highly intriguing! I like exercise that doesn't feel like I am working out. Could new experiences keep me inspired? I think watch this space is all that I can comment here.

Been away for the weekend with 2 dieting guys. What has struck me is that they have been sticking to their plans with the occasional treat. Whereas I have been so far from my plan I can barely see it in the distance. I haven't been able to track in advance as some meals have been eaten out. Mid Wales tends to give you limited choices. My arrival meal out was a very good veg curry on brown rice and the portions seemed just about right. But those 5 or 6 chips I pinched were the sign of things to come. I have also noticed that when I have an actual meal, the points aren't as high as when I pick and nibble instead. For next week, I am going to track before I eat. Worst meal was from the local chippy and included a battered sausage as well as a battered fish. Next weekend will be better.
