  2nd June 2004 Today is the dreaded Weigh In - although as I have worked hard this week,, I was actually looking forward to stepping on the scales and I was well rewarded - a 5lb loss ! That was a welcome sight I can tell you. I am back to having lost exactly 6 stone! (84lbs). I am feeling very strong and positive about weight loss again. its just a case of getting back into the habit. Apart from a small challenge on Friday ( a work lunch/party), there is no reason why I should not manage to have a good loss again this week. I am returning to 22 points for this week although, depending upon how Friday goes I may need to cut back a little next week to make up for it.
As I have had plenty of warning about the lunch on Friday, I have managed to come up with a strategy for coping - I'm going to ring them today and ask them to fax over a copy of their menu (or get the organiser of the meal to send it to me). I will then be able to work out the healthiest option so that I do not look like a complete freak once I get there.
Have already decided not to drink alcohol - will use the excuse that I have to drive later and will stick to diet coke and water. With any luck that should be anough to keep me within points. A busy night tonight as once I get home its off to the gym for a work-out and then out to a quiz night at the local pub. Not sure when we'll fit food in, but I'm sure I'll manage!
