'Friends' Sabotaging Me ...
So here I am finding it hard enough to step away from the biscuit tin, yet trying to be so positive for a friend who also wants to lose weight, when I invite her round for dinner, using a WW recipe, so all good, and what does she do ??? She turns up with a big bag of crisps, dip, a bottle of wine and 2 big bags of chocolate 
And what do I do ??? Yep, I pour the wine, dish out the crisps, and use the dip to make them more fattening, we eat our dinner and then I crack open the chocolate .... well, it was rude not to wasn't it, but if she hadn't have been 'nice' enough to bring them, I wouldn't have eaten them would I !!!
No, I can't say no, not at the moment, I am fragile remember

I had such a good day at work, I didn't drink as much water as I wanted to. It's getting colder here so I will have to go back to drinking herbal tea, and having my quota of water that way. We planned to have king prawns for starters and good old Bangers & Mash for main, WW bangers I hasten to add too !
But I ended up making myself feel sick eating the crisps and chocolate that weren't on the original menu ....
I was a little bit good though, when she left I threw the remainder of the crisps and chocolate away

I then found the energy to stay up alot longer than I would usually, gave my kitchen and fridge a spring clean and then got myself to bed.
But, today is a new day, and I plan to continue my efforts to stay on the blinking wagon !!!!
Here goes ....
Take care

you know what
You did do good to stay up, clean the kitchen and throw out the stuff that won't help you get to goal. Now would be a good time to come up with a strategy to deal with that situation when it comes around again. I am sure you can think of a great tactful way to gently remind people that you are eating healthier and while it was a lovely thought, you just can't serve that sort of thing at this time.

Oops!
Oh well, at least you threw the rest away .. and fancy staying up late to clean out your fridge!!!
King prawns, I lurve king prawns.....
I know what you mean about it getting colder.... 5 degs on the school run, brrrrr ..... even saw the geese flying.
Good idea on the herbal tea front, may even join you in that one!
