Hi everybody! So, this week - pretty short and sweet really. It's been a standard week. I'm realizing now that I'm having a maintain and then a loss, and a maintain and a loss. I maintained again this week which I'm actually happy with. Yeah, it's just been a really normal week.

I think that my relationship with bread may be taking a U-turn. I've managed to eat some toast this week which before I've just not been able to go anywhere near bread. So that's really good. My portions are still relatively small. Still going off my side plates. I'm not quite finishing them so that's really good. So that's still giving me enough willpower to hold back on getting fill number four for now. Just going to see how it goes but yeah, it's just been a really really standard week really.

A couple of people have still commented on my weight loss which is obviously fantastic, that's really good. It's nice to know that people are still noticing, because I think when I said last time that people were like 'Oh my god I can't believe your loss!' They'd not seen me for quite a long time but for them to still be commenting now kind of shows that you can still notice that I am getting smaller, which is definitely good.

I’m kind of worrying a bit about Christmas. I've been to the local Christmas markets and there was a lot of temptation. I didn't have anything but I'm thinking probably come Christmas I need to kind of prepare myself to not have a loss and maybe even possibly have a gain and to be honest I don't even think it's going to be about eating too much, I think it's probably going to be eating the wrong thing. But again, I've lost three and a half stone and I've gone down, what? Four dress sizes. So yeah, I think I'm allowed to be a little bit naughty Christmas, I don't see why not. But again, it's just about not being silly with it. To be honest, I couldn't eat big portions of anything at the minute. But I think to deny yourself too much is going to do more harm than good so I'm not going to worry about it that much. I'm just going to be mindful that although a couple of treats are okay, I don't need to be going overboard. I've said it a million times, I'd be absolutely devastated if I did go back to where I was and I do not intend to do that. That's it for me for this week. As I said short and sweet, but all in all good week and I'll speak to you all soon bye!
