The eighth wonder of the world

Weigh in last night. And I lost ... 1.1kgs!! What the....?! My theory is that the week before was so bad that my slip up this week didn't even register to badly on the ricter scale, so I will happily take my loss and use it to keep me motivated for this week. My first big hurdle is this weekend, Dad is taking my little girl and usually when she is around it seems that my little demons take over and its takeaways, dining out, eating crap, drinking wine (hmmm maybe I could just have a couple) - rather odd the rituals we have don't you think. So I have asked my husband if this weekend can be less about the food and more about enjoying ourselves, then when he asked me 'okay what you want to do?' I was stumped- what do you do if you are not eating?! Hopefully I will work this one out before Dad comes to pick her up.

My challenge this week is tackling my emotional eating. My plan is to draw up a distraction list and if I get 'The Urge' I will first have to go through my distraction list and actually do everything and if I am still hungry afterwards than I will have something. Sounds like a good theory right and I guess that is what this weight loss journey is all about trying out new theories and finding one that works.
