| Miss Piggy would be proud no?- hmm maybe not |
Tomorrow, I am going to get weighed at slimming world ( well that's the plan anyhow) and I know that I will as sure as I am breathing and typing this biog post will have put on weight! Why why why.. I could scream, be in denial.. In fact a part of me feels a bit like Ross in Friends did when Rachel dumped him and he went on a bender with some other woman. He always claimed because he was on a break. Well.. surely a little bit of him ( a big bit really) should have known that it was a heat of the moment thing and that they could have gotten over it.. well..so I think anyway.. This leads me to my issue..yes I have not been to slimming world for two weeks, one planned the other not...I feel like I have been on the so called break. As of the last time I went to Slimming world ( 5th August) I was on a real good run..now honestly should that not have been the incentive to make good and reasonable choices whilst out and about? On the 10th I went to my good friend's husband's 50th birthday celebrations, and there it all started, wine, cheesecake and wait for it..chocolate ice cream. I mean did I have to, they had fruit salad you know! OK, that was then, on the Monday - what normally would have been a slimming world day for me, was my own husband's 50th and we had a visitor. Now I had to be good to him yes? .So I cooked him a lovely traditional Nigerian meal, of which I partook. hmm.. I have to be honest, it was all down hill from there, I was on leave, and getting ready for our big do, on the Saturday.. so yes, that meant double helpings of cereal in the mornings, bread, and God knows what. Well needless to say my bad behaviour has continued, despite the conversations that I have been having with myself on a daily basis, get back on track I say, go out and do some proper shopping I moan at myself and stop eating birthday cake for breakfast, or these
lovely chocolates, better than cadbury's ones I'll have you know! Have I done any of those things? Hell no! Haven't I been
back at work for a week, before we had this bank holiday, that to be honest should have galvanised me, but alas it did not. My only saving grace has been that I have kept up my exercise regime, that is Tae kwon do on a Tuesday evening.
Really I have chosen this picture of me, eating off my husband's plate because its the only attractive one of me eating, but my that is what I have done for the last two weeks on this fictional break. What I need to make clear, like the Ross I was talking about earlier, I have known that my behaviour was not all there. I have cooked nice food, the Slimming world way, its the only way I cook now to be honest, but what's the point of that if not one day in five did I take my lunch to work like I normally do, partook of every snack on offer at work, even looked for them on one occasion. That is not including the extraordinary lunch dates that I had!
So, its not really that hard to make good choices, I personally think its laziness and lack of discipline. It's not really fair that some of us have to work so so hard to keep the weight off, really it isn't but surely it's like anything else in life..nothing is fair and we really have to make our own luck. I have had many compliments regarding my perceived culinary skills, seeing as I post a lot of stuff on the our local Facebook slimming world page, so I have taken this to heart, and now I am building my own website.. cooking with
msnikkidee, oh but I digress, the point I wanted to make was that with all my accomplishments in the kitchen, I have to be more responsible if I want to see the results on my hips and in my dress size. The point I am making is that one should not be paying lip service to losing weight! It is with trepidation that I face the scales tomorrow.
