So far so good...

Well yesterday I managed to stay within points and also attended 2 aqua aerobics classes, one deep water one in the morning which lasted 50mins and one in the evening which lasted 45mins. In total I earned a respectable 8 bonus points. I'm not going to eat them though! I even had a small tray of chip shop chips and chicken kebab meat, which I really enjoyed!!

This morning however I received a text which at first really annoyed me. I had a bit of a rant about it on the 5+ board, as when I got it I was pretty upset - I tend to overreact at first!! One little NSV which came from it was that I didn't feel the urge to binge!! Bonus!

Anyway, this was my post in case you missed it:

"I've just had a text from a girl who's hen party (and wedding) i have been invited to in October this year. Originally it was supposed to be an 80's themed affair with a meal and then on to Reflex (80's bar), so on the invite we were told we would have to dress up in 80's gear. Super! I love dressing up in silly stuff! So despite me not liking the Hen very much, i accepted the invite on the basis of it potentially being a good laugh. Now apparently she has changed her mind about the theme, saying she wants everyone to dress as 'sexy devils' with little black dresses and devil horns. She doesn't know i am trying to lose weight before her wedding, but she must know very well that many of us, me included, will look an absolute state in a little black dress!! She's not tiny herself- around a size 16- so i can't help feeling she's done this on purpose just to make herself look and feel better compared to the rest of us. I know at the end of the day, she's the bride, but it just seems a bit selfish and quite rude after i've already accepted the invite. I don't think i should go now. What do you think?"

The replies I got made me realise that I was being a bit of an idiot, and I came to the conclusion that I was mainly just annoyed at myself for not having lost the weight i wanted to so far to feel good about myself at her wedding or hen do. I am going to try my hardest to lose as much as possible before then, and if I have lost enough to feel good about myself, then maybe I will consider going to the Hen Party. The only reasons i'm going to the wedding are because the groom used to be a good friend, (until he met the demon bride) and all of my other nice friends will be there, so it should be good fun. Ah well. I shall have to see what I can acheive in the remaining 12 weeks!!

At the very least, it's given me something to aim for!!
