I stayed the same

I had my weigh in yesterday and sadly stayed the same. Perhaps not really sadly considering what I ate last week with it being Christmas, but still sad in that I did not reach my target for new year.

I enjoyed Christmas and did not worry too much about the diet. We went to the cinema Christmas Eve and watched st Trinian's - absolute rubbish film, but afterwards we had an Indian takeaway. When everyone else was saying 'I am so full I can't eat any more' - I was shoveling it all down and cleared all my plate!

Then Christmas day I had a full Christmas dinner and Christmas pudding. I then worked 4 nights and we were so busy that I did not have any breaks at all and felt so tired when I sat down to write my notes that I gave in and had some Roses chocolates that were lying around.

When I came back from weigh in last night I felt a little deflated that this was the first week that I had not lost and ate 2 chocolate bars - a crunchie and a fudge bar - so well and truly back on the chocolate now! We have just had a Chinese takeaway for tea as it is New Years Eve and again I scoffed loads - so I don't even think I will get to my 5 stone target next week at this rate.

I have not even made it to the gym for ages, so I am feel as if I am wavering a little bit at the minute. I don't want to stop as I really want to get down to 10 stone - just need a bit of a kick up the backside.

I think things might be better next week when the house is sorted a bit and life is not so hectic. Eleanor and Jess go back to Uni on Thursday. My mum moves out into her new flat next Monday and Liam goes back to school then - so I am hoping to get back on track then.

I am also really keen to start scrapping again - once I can unpack all my stuff in my craft room. I have signed up for a challenge to do one layout a week - so I really want to keep up with that one. My A-Z art journal is still only a thought in my head - still can't come up with what to do it on. As I have already done BOM - this needs to be a bit different - thought about books or recipes- but still not sure. Fell a bit overwhelmed with all the layouts I know I have to do such as Liam's 'year in the life' and Jessica's uni album.
