Week 11

As predicted Week 11 was a minefield.

Tuesday – Friday I was on site with a client. Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday in a project office adjacent to Manchester Airport, with accommodation at an airport hotel – only 1/2 mile walk away. On Tuesday we worked until about 7:30; Wednesday even later. Dinner on Tuesday was in the hotel and on Wednesday we took a taxi a short distance to an Indian restaurant – so didn’t even get the 1/2 mile walk back to the hotel!

Thursday we travelled to London, and had ‘dinner’ on the train. I had the pasta salad – which had a few sprigs of rocket and some rice in a tomato sauce – definitely no pasta!

Every day – Monday to Thursday I was on or just over the WW allowable points of 26, so no build up of any additional weekly bonus points from non-use of the daily points. Consequently there was little room for manoeuvre at the weekend (when I had another curry and a few glasses of red wine and bottles of beer).

Managed to get a few mile sin walking to and rom the shops in Edinburgh, on Saturday and Sunday afternoon, but that was about it for exercise for the week (I did a long walk to work on Monday), but if I managed 20 miles in the week I would be surprised.

What was a pleasant surprise was that when I weighed in on Monday morning I was exactly the same as the previous week. My first week since I started 11 weeks ago when I have not lost any weight at all – but at least I didn’t gain any either – phew, I am not going back wards. this coming week will be a challenge, especially on Tuesday when I am out for lunch and then out for a curry in the evening – Week 12 could be a repeat performance eof week 11??
