Healthy eating update

Seriously need to resume my healthy eating ways some time very soon. If not I will
 have to face the mass that looks back at me in the mirror as weight starts to creep
back on. I promised myself in 2009 that I'd never return to the shameful 20stone club.
 
Its really hard trying to shed the pounds, as many may already know life sometimes just
gets in the way. Fun (the majority of the time) results in calories.... And I tell you
one thing there's been lots of fun in my life recently; Las Vegas holiday, Staff night
out followed by Lincoln Christmas market where the amount of festive treats seem to be
endless! All these enjoyable activities happened to fall in the same three week period
which has taken a huge toll on my healthy eating, my general attitude towards food and 
not to mention the all deflating bank balance. 
 
My only saving grace is that throughout all the madness these past few weeks have bought,
there's also been LOTS of walking which would have no doubt compensated for those 2 
man sized pieces of Cheese cake I ate from the famous LasVegas Cheesecake Factory. 
 
My wardrobe is filled with beautiful clothes, my life is filled with new and exciting 
things but the only thing holding me back is this weight loss challenge. I do not want
 to be 'thin', I do not want to be a size 12, I just want to feel like me again.
 
At the beginning of this year I was 17.3 and managed at one point to get to 16stone in 
hopes of fighting for my position in the delightful 15 stone club; however with life 
came stress and with stress came chocolate. Now I weight 17stone and I'm putting my 
foot down! Today I realised I'm my own worst enemy as Iv successfully LOST over a stone
and then put the majority of it back on again in the past few months! 
 
My plan is to eat ridiculously healthy until Christmas and then re-assess the situation.
Limiting fizzy drinks, abolishing chocolate and actually giving a crap about what I'm 
placing into my mouth will make the world of difference.
