Last night (well yesterday),i had the blow out i was wanting and hopefully got it out of my system!
Went for lunch yesterday at an Italian, had 1/2 garlic bread, and canneloni (didnt turn down the parmesan cheese this time though!). It was lovely and i was stuffed so didnt really need anything else to eat for the rest of the day.
Didnt stop me though - had a takeaway pizza last night - 9 inch pepperoni and 1/2 portion of fries. I really blinkin enjoyed it too! Then i had a Creme Egg (as my treat!! ha!).
Still, i wasnt as bad as i could've been and will get back on track today as much as i can - although am at a 70th tonight so will probably go over. Damage limitation the rest of the week then!

Weekly Weigh In
Lost 2.5lbs this week, so last weeks gain is gone.
Am struggling today, my auntie died this morning, we didnt know anything was wrong and then all of sudden we were told she had hours to live so its all a bit of a shock.
I was badly affected by my uncle dying 8 years ago, and i'm feeling just like i felt when he died, in fact i'm thinking more about him. I've never had bereavement councilling but i think i'm going to have to look into it, i'm obviously not as over him as i thought i was. When Ken died i turned to food in a big way, and ended up 9 stone heavier. I dont want to undo all my hard work, but at the moment i just want a pizza and onion rings, and chocolate and crisps and cream cakes and all the things i shouldnt be having.
Have bought some carrots and humous to try and stave off these cravings.

Sunday Walk
I just got back from this weeks walk. It was up another hill (mountain type thing!), but with fewer steps than last week. I found it hard but made it in the end! Some pics above. This is Peel Tower in Ramsbottom, Bury. The top one is when we made it to the top, the bottom one is in the car park at the bottom - eek!

Rarrrrr =(
Weigh in today. I put on 2.5lbs!!
I'm not too fussed cos the big picture is that i have still lost 43.5 lbs in 17 weeks. I think that last weeks result may have been a bit of a false one and that i didnt really lose 6lbs, cos i just think it was too much to lose in a week at this stage without having done anything drastically different.
Next week - 2.5lbs will BE GONE!!!!

Where I Walked today!
I just found this pic of where i walked up today! Oh My God - i cant believe i made it up those steps!! I am going to do this walk once a month - and soon i'll be jogging up them! Not turning puce and nearly passing out! I must add that this photo is taken from about half way up the steps!!!Pics & My Sunday!
Current pics as of today - 46lbs lost. I also took measurements today, and have lost some inches. My belly has gone from 55 inches when i first measured to 48 inches. I forgot to do my measurements when i started though!
I went for a walk today that there is no chance i would've been able to do 4 months ago! I only just managed it today! It wasnt the distance - i think i only did 7000 steps - its the fact that it was more or less all uphill! Some very steep steps, i had to stop halfway up due to going so dizzy, but i got there in the end!
On the way home we decided to go for a meal out, and as i hadnt had any lunch, i decided to treat myself to fish and chips - mmmm. Anyway, they had no fish so i ended up with jacket potato and chicken! And i'm sure i enjoyed it more than i would fish and chips as i'd have felt so guilty! I didnt finish the meal anyway, and didnt even consider dessert. Good me!

Am Smiling!
I got a text today off my Weightwatchers leader - it says:-
"Hi Gemma its Toni. Could you dig out some old photos? You truly are an inspiration. I would love to share your success with everyone else in the class if you dont mind? COME ON 50!"
I am so chuffed that Toni has taken the time to do this. The problem will be finding some photos - i avoided cameras like the plague! I did go to a christening the weekend after i had joined WW, and all the family kept coming round taking pics so someone must have some. If i get hold of any i will post on here - along with some new ones i am planning when i get the magic 5-0!!
