Days 149 - 151

I'm ashamed to say I pretty much had a weekend off the diet. I started off with good intentions and behaved quite well at my brother's birthday sushi lunch but when the offer of my favourite wine came up later that evening I rashly decided on a few slices of pizza to knock me out of ketosis so I could have a couple of glasses of Sauvignon Blanc. The few slices became almost a whole 10" pizza and the couple of glasses of wine somehow became pretty much a whole bottle.

On Sunday I decided that lots of water and lots of walking was the answer to my problems. I must have walked about 10 miles and thoroughly enjoyed it despite a fuzzy feeling, post wine brain. I'm assuming it helped though because on Monday morning I was back in ketosis and weighed 3lbs less than I had before work on Friday morning. I also tried to explain a little more about my diet to my lovely gran seeing as she was kind enough to comment on my weight-loss since I'd last seen her. I explained to her that it was a very low-carb diet with lots of nutritional suppliments, which is fairly accurate I guess, and I managed to wriggle out of eating cake and sandwiches without too much difficulty.

I really think my new job is going to be a big help, I'm going to get way more exercise than I did when I spent most of my time sitting in front of various computers. As long as I can be reasonably good on the diet, my weight-loss might get a bit of a boost. My new boss already seems to like me and hopefully he'll like me even more if I can sort out this laptop he gave me to fix. He also mentioned to me that he might like his website updating too, every little helps. If things keep going like this I might even be able to buy myself a motorbike soon, I have my eye on a Honda Varadero XL125. Even though it's a 125 it looks like a 'grown-up' bike and has a V-twin engine!!! Amazing!
