Lucky or not ?

All i can say is "phew " !

I am feeling a huge sigh of relief after staying the same at last nights weigh in.  I had another bank holiday blow out, so feel very lucky not to have gained.

In one weekend I ate out 5 times, Chinese, Italian, Fish n Chips & McDonald's and a picnic, that doesn't include the bag of Tiger Nuts and 2 x Ice cream cones.

Why have I stayed the same, well other than luck, I would say that as much as this list looks really bad it wasn't when i look through my journal.

Friday I went out for a Chinese meal, which because I had planned it was in my daily points.

Saturday was Fish n Chips at the beach, but I chose a children's portion of cod bites, then went on to give 2 away so i ate only one with small chips. Again in my daily points but set a few weekly aside as I wasn't too sure if i had allocated enough.

Sunday we had a picnic, all pointed and then walked over two miles around a local lake.  Tiger nuts on the evening which would have been weekly points.

Monday was the day that was over my points and totally unplanned. We went to McDonald's for lunch as it was convenient while out and about.  We did follow this with a long walk at Northumberlandia, The Lady of the North, to earn some extra activity points.  Then to Morpeth park in the afternoon followed by an Italians which would have been way over as the pasta portion size was definitely not average, but fabulous all the same.



What i am saying is 4 out of my 7 days were out of the norm, but all together they weren't as bad as i thought on first glance.  Maybe if we don't push it every week, weight watchers really is as flexible as i believe and will allow for bank holiday weekends after all.

Saying that, i am still on my best behaviour this week in case the meals out catch up with me. 

WW Halo is now been worn and hopefully wont slip.

Wish me luck x

  1. Just goes to show how flexible the WW plan is. Planning in advance and getting the balance right seem to be the keys to success. I love how your tracker proved that your week wasn't as bad as you feared. Good luck with the new week. XX
