A little late, but feeling great!

So, my last weigh in was scheduled for on or around the 7th April ... well I did say I was on annual leave so I might be a bit late. I didn't expect to be a month late but there you go!

I have just weighed in for the first time in about six weeks and I have put on 2lb. Ah well, not the end of the world and certainly not unmanageable. I have had a weekend of excesses (a stonking hen weekend in Cardiff for one of my very good friends) which involved copious amounts of alcohol, plenty of cake and at least two burgers so I am hoping a return to normal everyday eating and drinking will sort that out fairly quickly. I have also just completed my first month of my new job, which is challenging (in the very best way) and also full of temptation in the form of vending machines full of M&M's, very good latte just a moments walk away and a convenient supply of fresh rather large baguettes which has certainly had an affect on my diet that I admit to being fairly poor for the last few weeks. That will all settle down though, and hopefully once I get back into the swing of something resembling a routine I should find time for aerobics again too.

My current plan is to try and fit in listening to the McKenna CD to try and summon up some motivation for exercise and a compulsion to eat more healthy options and less crap. I have to say, the "eat if you're hungry, stop when you're full" rule seems to have stuck with me quite well though and I am definitely not mindlessly stuffing my face to the point of bursting. I also feel more happy with my body than I have in a while, which is probably why I haven't felt the need to blog or weigh myself in such a long time. I still have no jeans that fit. I'm working on that one lol.

So, I am hoping to shift this excess 2lbs before the next weigh by getting "Back to McKenna Basics". It's our niece's wedding on spring bank holiday weekend so I will weigh in just before then. If I gain weight my dress simply will not fit (it's a squeeze as it is) so I hope my faith in McKenna proves justified again.
