Safari - so goody

Well I lost 1.5lbs today and it feels great to be back in the swing of things.

Damien (hubby) and I went out for an Indian last Saturday night which was lovely but a ridiculous amount of points spent. Suffice to say, I have been clawing back some points all week to compensate.

I worked fairly hard and consistently on the exercise front all week. 5 x 3mile walks in the evenings after dinner, and 50 minutes last night on the Wii fit. I invested in wii fit plus, and had great fun with the new features as well as the old hula hoop and step plus favourits.

I think in reality, that my losses would be greater if I didn't spend Mondays to Fridays compensating for the weekend damage.

I would say I will try harder on that front, but realistically it won't be starting this weekend. I am out tonight in my home town, going to a 40th birthday party. With my planned meals today, I will have eaten 15 points, and that only leaves 3 extra for alcohol. That just won't cover it I'm afraid.

My good friend and fellow WW'er started back at classes with me in January. She got her (new) starting weigh in, bunked off the next week, attended the week after that, and has bunked off the last 2 weeks. She is so hacked off with herself at the moment, and I am genuinely sorry for her. I am willing her to get her head back in it, but its that old adage about "no-one can do this for you". Hate not being able to help her with this - we've talked at length about the whole subject - but she has at least come out on the walks I've been doing this week. Her starting WW is what motivated me to start way back in the beginning, and I kind of wanted us to finish together what we started together.
