Days 97 - 102 - Diet break

I haven't posted for almost a week due to illness and being busy in equal measures. I had some time off CD while I recovered from my horrible sore throat and then when I went to visit some family and friends in Berkshire. In the end, my throat problem lasted an entire week, maybe if I had stopped the diet sooner, I would have recovered a little sooner but it worked out OK just about as I suddenly started feeling a lot better just 1 day before I was due to go to Berkshire.

I really enjoyed my time away. I got to spend some time with my granny and cleverly timed my visits so they were between mealtimes so she didn't force-feed me until I burst. I also spent some time with 2 of my oldest, dearest friends. I hadn't intended to, but I did get rather drunk on Saturday night but I certainly won't be doing that again in a hurry seeing as I'm aiming to be back in ketosis by the end of this week at the very latest. I'm not doing anything for New Year's eve, apart from maybe watching the fireworks from the roof of the flats so I'll just wean myself off the carbs over the next few days and with any luck, I'll shed the extra 4lbs I put on over the last week very quickly.

I was expecting to feel tempted to overeat when I took a break from the diet but I really wasn't. I've probably had my most sensible Xmas eating ever this year. I think it's because I've still been having the occasional CD sachet or bar and I've been knocking back good quantities of water and peppermint tea.
