Holiday compromises

[BrighterSide 242]

On holiday with the family for the first time since my sleeve in Jan. 12 weeks today.

Holidays were always a cue for indulgence. Never did the ‘diet hard so I can splurge’ thing, but did think ‘two weeks of treats won’t hurt’.

Not indulged, but have compromised. Had a couple of crisps during a marathon game of monopoly. Had a couple of sweet potato fries with a fillet steak (totally gorgeous one with brie and crispy pancetta on top in a puddle of red wine sauce...yeah I know! Got loads to bring home that I’m having tomorrow with salad), and tasted eldest’s desert (she was right, it was exactly like after eight mints), but didn’t have one of my own.

All that may sound to some like slacking, but I’ve stayed under 850kcal and hit Protein and Fluid targets with loads of extra exercise I’m really enjoying. Just guess I wanted to say it hasn’t been a slippery slope and feeling really good.

If it’s less loss I’ll live with it cos I’ll be back in my own kitchen in 6 days with my own supermarket shop, but willing to bet it won’t be with how busy we’re being :-)
