It is isn't it.
Thank you both.
Boss came in to work this morning & offered the team a McDonalds brekkie, I said no thank you.

I am going to have 2 days this week eating yummy (naughty) food. Off to a friends for dinner tomorrow night & she is cooking so just gonna enjoy whatever she makes us.
Saturday is baby shower so gonna nibble & have some drinks then straight back to tracking everything on Sunday.
Hopefully this won't affect me too much.

Hey peeps,
Been AWOL the last few days as had my BFF's baby shower on Saturday so was manic trying to get everything organised while keeping it a secret :rotfl:
It's all done & dusted now, spent quite a bit more than I had planned but she had the best time & was so happy with it :j
Funds
:starmod: 392.69 in bank (160.00 bills to be paid, 232.69 remaining)
:starmod: 46.77 in purse (lifting out all weekly budget, no swiping)
Okay so the plan starting from now is that I will lift out all cash to spend for the week, no swiping the cards as it is easy to lose track. I have lifted out my 50.00 I have for this week & I will restart my week on a Sunday as my work week is Sunday to Thursday. Once it is gone it is gone & I am hoping that most weeks I will have left over which I can put into my tin at home :money:
Plans this week which might skupper me are that I have a night out on Friday with the work. One of the girls in work it is her 40th birthday. Meal is already paid for so plan is to spend maybe 15.00 on drinks then jump the bus home or get the husband to come pick me up.
WW wise oh I have been so so bad, eaten all the worst types of food all weekend since Thursday & just haven't stopped :rotfl: definitely dogging WW tomorrow will go back Wednesday next week when I have hopefully undone all the damage from this week.

Dolly you're back! Sounds like you're having a great time. Busy living and party organising, i bet she loved the baby shower and really appreciated all your work.
Don't stress the ww, its up and down. You will get there. Sometimes we just need to eat what we shouldn't and other times we power through and its not as hard. You live and learn in the ww, its a marathon and takes a long time. I look at all the yo-yo dieting celebs and feel better! xxx2017- 5 credit cards plus loan

Well this is what I get for being a fat wee pig since Thursday last week, I gained 3lbs.
Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh could honestly cry, for what?!?! Really why are we our own worst enemies at times.
Back to tracking everything that passes these lips from this morning.
