You know how I said I wouldn't be tempted by the party food? I was wrong!! lol I snacked a grazed like the professional that I am....oh deary dear!!!
Saturday was just as busy as I thought it would be - in fact it was possible worse! My Dad arrived from Spain for a short visit at 10am - at 10:45am we had to head out to take delivery of our 3 chickens....we brought them home and got them comfortable in their house, got changed and headed out, with much food(!) to my son's 5th birthday party....you may have noticed me problem by this point....I hadn't eaten enoughI had a couple of shredded wheat for brekkie but didn't stop then til we were already at the party. In all honesty I had about 5 quarters of egg mayo sandwich, about 3 chocolate fingers, one fairy cake and a slice of birthday cake....it could have been worse I suppose....except I carried on when I got home with far too many mini eggs, a low point curry, another slice of birthday cake and a few mini cheddar biscuits....
Oh well - these days happen - I seem to say that a lot though. Today will be a subway lunch and I'm in work all day so that should keep me on the straight and narrow!
I've signed up for the new challenge - and I think I will need it. Only 3 days of school this week and then I have my son and husband home for just over two weeks for the easter holidays. It's a dangerous time food wise as I lose my routine and can start to eat badly.....I'm determined to stick to it though and I know with my buddies here on fs I've got the best chance of doing it too!

You've got such a knack for losing weight on the weeks you have a few splurges that I don't think you should worry at all about having eaten a few extra goodies. So try not to think of these events as "cheating". Sure, you might lose an extra pound if you cut out the "extras", but having to deny yourself all the time has its own set of problems. Try to take some time to plan ahead for the easter holidays and I am sure you will breeze through them with a nice weight loss at the end of it all. Have fun with your chickens!

I agree with Evelyn that your splurges seem to be doing no harm and in fact I think it's great that you must be managing to compensate for them and still lose. So that's great!! I am indeed in the UK, Plymouth to be precise. :o) We must be one of the few Local Education Authorities in the UK that aren't having our Easter Holidays over the Easter period!!! So it's two 4 day weeks this week with the Easter weekend... our Easter holidays down here start Monday 7th April for 2 weeks -- mad huh! Well, I hope that you have a lovely Easter break and fantastic news on your hubby finding 3 eggs this morning. Keep up the great work there and hope you're having a nice weekend. :o)

Thanks Moonlite - ah - you're not that close to us then....we're in North Wales. I think Lancashire are having the same holidays as you but no, we are having one VERY long one! lol My son finishes on weds and is back on, I think, the 8th April!!!
I've had a few chicken updates today and everything is going very well!!! They seem to be settling in, which is lovely. I can't wait for this 12 hour shift to finish so that I can get home to them!!
Thank you for all the wonderful encourgaement!

Eggs! How great your new chickens are already giving you guys eggs! I agree with what the ladies have said. You can get back on track and keep going. Your chart looks amazing! The party goodies added up may not of even used all of your points. And with all of your preparing for the party you probably burned up a lot of calories. With my kids birthday parties I feel I have run a marathon by the end of it! lol

You are certainly moving right along, and in the downward direction. . . rejoice in that and don't worry!
