AN UPDATE . . .

So I've been doing okay. Mainly because I haven't drank since last Sunday (which has been pretty difficult) and have been trying to fill up on healthy stuff as much as possible. Okay, so I wasn't BRILLIANT with my food choices but I did cook quite a bit which is unlike me. I made spaghetti bolognese for the flatmates on Monday night and tacos on Tuesday night. I know they aren't UBER-HEALTHY, but the fact I actually MADE them and didn't just eat ready meals is a bit impressive by my standards. As far as I'm concerned, it's the small victories that are important and will contribute to the end result.

I also have the Davina McCall Super Body workout now, which I got via post on Wednesday and have done three times so far. It has a great abs workout which you can really feel working.

In fact, I weighed myself this morning and I was quite happy with my weight. Although I then somehow weighed three and a half pounds more just a few hours later. I'm assuming it's because I had drank quite a lot and eaten too, but it's still a bit demoralising to "put on weight" so quickly!!!

Anyway, I'm going to keep up the exercise, try to avoid the alcohol as much as possible and try to make healthy choices as far as I can . . . and I think I need to stop seeing this as a "diet". Because the word just intimidates me and makes it that much harder!
