Chocolate Raid!!!

Oh dear, I went mad yesterday and Tuesday and had two chocolate over-eating days.

My first mistake - I bought multi packs from Tesco when I went shopping on Monday (I went shopping as soon as I arrived in Scotland to start my work up there this week).

I managed to eat 5 bars of chocolate on Tuesday and another 6 bars of chocolate and a piece of cake on Wednesday, the day I returned home from Scotland. I was feeling tired and sorry for myself as it is getting harder to spend 3 days a week working away from home, but needs must - it keeps the wolves from the door and the bills paid.

I did count my checks and keep PEPing (diet plan) as normal and my total extra checks in 2 days was 76. This is more than the total allowed for in 1 day (65). I have redone my weekly plan and hope to reduce the rest of the week before my Monday weigh-in so that I get a loss. This has gone really well today, so just tomorrow to get through on my own before the weekend. It is easier at the weekend as I am not on my own, but rattling around in the house when the OH is at work is difficult.

I will update you on Monday as to whether I gain or lose weight.

What have I learnt - don't buy multipacks of chocolates!

Occupy myself instead of sitting wathching TV in my hotel room feeling sorry for myself. I could always go swimming, as the hotel has a half price offer with the local leisure centre.

Try and keep more low calorie/low fat snacks around for the weak moments.

Try to be positive about the job, after all it is not for long now.

End of confession.
