Week 7 (268lbs) | Gain +3lbs | Total Loss -4lbs

This week will be 9th - 15th with weigh in on the 16th

mmm...not good. Missed 9th, 10th and 11th - in that I can't remember what I had. I need to do a bit better at the weekends. Hopefully Monday to Thursday will be enough to get me out of trouble.

I did go to the gym on Saturday...so that's a plus I guess.

Gutted. +3 today.

So...lets have a look at what went wrong....
1. Alcohol on Saturday
2. No food diary Friday, Saturday or Sunday
3. LOTS of cake on my birthday on Thursday
4. Too much bread and too much butter and too much cheese

Having looked at it that way perhaps I should think myself lucky I only put on 3 lbs...but that's not how I'm looking at it. I'm looking at it as a missed opportunity to carry on the good job I did the week before.

So what have I learned for future food diaries? Cut down on bread - definitely cut down on butter - no birthdays until I've lost weight - and most importantly - KEEP THE FOOD DIARY EVERYDAY!
