Evening out with the girls = Olives 1 point, Starters were Snails in garlic yum yum 2 points, Main was prawns on a bed of cous cous 5 points, a titchy bit of cheese 2 points, lots and lots and lots of water, but 1 bacardi & diet coke and 1 tia maria 3.5 points for those - Oh and a cup of tea
I was given the bacardi & coke at the beginning of the evening, and it lasted right through, my sister did not bully me not to drink the water, she just left me to it, which I was very grateful for. I had the tia maria at the last knockings, well it helped ease my back which was still causing me grief
So, all in all, a good day = 19.5 points
I 'WILL' be good and you 'WILL' see the results next week
Thanks for being there

Think about it...
For a minute.....
Whilst I appreciate in an ideal world you would have liked to have lost 9 Lb ( Or more) in 9 weeks In real life, as oposed to WW life. if you weighed at the start and then weighed 9 weeks later and had only put on 1/2 a pound in all that time youd think you wernt doing too bad wouldnt you.
I mean god knows with the amount of socialising and dinners out that you have had it could have been 9Lb( or more) ON in 9 weeks
Dont beat your self up on what you havent done. Congratulate yourself wholeheartedly on the 32 yes count them 32 Lbs that you have lost. against that 1/2 a pound is nothing !!
Many thanks for your find words, although looking over your progress to date you are not so far behind - the weight loss graph looks amazing and the photos are the proof in the pudding..
Please stick with it and be positive - I felt at times the end would never come - but it has and its here, and im not totally confident that I am never going to put that damned weight back on.
I have found a great resource on line for continuing to log my calorie intake as the secret to my maintenance is to not forget my limits..
Keep with it Jules - Essex is a lighter place already..
