So tonight was weigh in and as usual, I wasn’t very hopeful for good things. The weekend wasn’t too bad but Saturday was a bit of a disaster foodwise.

I met a friend that I’d not seen for a few years on Saturday morning. She has lost a lot of weight too and looks fantastic as a result. She came back to Cardiff for a few hours and so we had a mooch around town for a few hours. 

We went to the local Spoons pub for some lunch. I had a steak pie but rather than chips, had a baked spud. God I’m good! 

However I then went to visit my other friend and that’s where it all went a bit wrong. Sausage in batter and some real fish shop chips. I just couldn’t resist that. Then there were the snacks and the cheesecake. Ermagherd the salted caramel cheesecake…

The rest of the week has been a bit better than Saturday. I’ve not done so badly. I did a couple of walks over the weekend and on Monday evening but that was about as far as I got.

I didn’t get out and about on Tuesday and Wednesday. I know I should have but it’s been a busy challenge in work this week and I really just wanted to get home and hibernate.

I wasn’t expecting very much from the Scales of Doom this evening. I was pleased to see that I had lost a pound at group. 

I needed 1.5lbs to get to my 9 stone award. I was so close again! This weekend, I don’t see anything that is going to stop me from getting that remaining half a pound this week.
