Not such a good week this week. It was the first week where I felt like I was trying to sabotage myself. I was just feeling like I wanted a change and wanted to eat things that I haven’t wanted for some time. I still had my shakes for breakfast and lunch but seemed to give into cravings for biscuits and chocolate in the evening. It probably only lasted a few days but I felt really guilty, as if I was letting myself down and couldn’t do anything about it. Needless to say I’m too scared to get on the scales this week as I don’t want to be disappointed. I’ll wait until next week and try to be really good.

I am back to my normal self now with more control. Saturday night we had dinner and drinks with a few friends and I only drank diet soft drink. I had to bring the nibbles so I took nuts and cheese for everyone else and a big platter of celery, carrot and capsicum sticks with light tzatziki dip for me - it was actually popular with everyone.

On a positive note, this Friday I bumped into a friend I hadn’t seen for a few months and she asked me if I had lost weight so that made me feel much better.
