Hello diary,

The scales were just as I thought this morning UP two pounds.

I knew it.

I saw my mum and sister on Friday and since then have comfort eaten all weekend.

I have issues with my family, as I have a history of Child sexual abuse.

Right now I am in a great place, I have done the therapy and worked on my well being.

I have always comfort ate when feeling un nerved, and I have done this over the weekend.

My sister and mum are lovely but they still have great belief in my abuser.

I won't see them again until the end of April so time to correct the matter until then.

Hi Caroline: I too have had a lapse of judgment in healthy eating. My husband bought a couple of bags of jelly beans, and I let my guard down. I did good for a few days, but once I ate the first one, that was my downfall.
Today is a new day and time to start over. I will be going for a bike ride later. Another beautiful day.
Here's to a great week.

Hi Carolin57. I hope you aren't too hard on yourself over the gain. Today's a new day--a new week--for you to get back on track. I have remained about the same weight for quite some time but today I have determined to make a new start and focus on my goal. Thank you for your reply to my post. You will reach your goal. You have been keeping your eyes fixed on your target.

Hello FlRetired and Inkspring
Yes today is a new day and a chance to get back into the zone.
I have been for a two hour walk in glorious UK weather which has seen the warmest February day on record today.
Enjoy your bike ride FlRetired and Welcome to our little group Inkspring.
