This week I’ve been feeling very unattractive (normally a huge sign that Mother natures about to pay me a little unwanted visit) and to be honest its given me a huge kick up the bottom.
I have been swapping my beloved fizzy beverages for water and making every attempt to cut back on snacking. Admittedly the majority of my snacks are healthy BUT if these snacks are consumed in high volume calories are calories at the end of the day.
Determined to stay strong I have arrived at work today to find the following:
1) My close colleague had made a trough full of home-made Thai Curry free for all.
2) Said person also bought in a home-baked chocolate cake with more calories in than I dare to imagine.
3) A nurse on afternoons is bringing a huge coffee and walnut cake free to all
4) There was also a tray baked chocolate Leaving cake (again free for all to share).
WHY do they do this to me? HOW was I supposed to avoid demolishing the LOT !
The truth is it took a lot of willpower but now I’m feeling empowered and rather positive about my ability to achieve a few pounds loss by next weigh in.
Its taken a years to finally realise that it’s the little things that really DO mess up my chances of ever loosing any more weight, familiar sounding phrases like ‘Oh its only one piece of cake’ or ‘I’ll just have a few’ or ‘ Just a bite’ ring so true and are undoubtedly excuses Iv ALWAYS used.
In life there are good days and bad, one day you are the statue and on another you might be the pigeon…well today I’m the pigeon….
