Another not so great week this week, I went out for food on both Wednesday and Thursday nights and also ate a lot of cake at a party on Saturday. I decided to attempt to minimise the damage by having SP days yesterday and Monday, I actually quite enjoyed these as it meant that I could have two B choices. The great thing is, it worked! I weighed in today and had lost another 1lb, which is a total of 13lbs. I will get that stone next week…Carry on reading to find out what I have been eating the past week.
