I meant to do this blog every day as i know it's good for me but it's hard to get time at weekends. So today was Sunday, Day 7 and I finally seem to be going in the right direction. Am down 4lbs. Feeling happier now the scales are going in the right direction. Very grateful for all the good advice on here when I was feeling low.

Found it very hard not to have a drink this weekend. I don't drink a lot but I do like a glass of wine on a Friday night after a hard week. Am happy now that I didn't indulge but surprised that it was a factor for me. Maybe I'm learning something about myself.

Had to find activities to do that did not involve drinking or eating so went to the cinema twice in two days! Saw Che with the hubby which was good, though not as good as I had expected and Bride Wars with the girls, which was pretty funny and better than I expected.

Going to try to make it through this week with a good attitude and have lots of optimism at the moment anyway. Got my head in the game now! B.
