So this is one of those 'steps back' weeks for me, dang it. Even worse is it was really beyond my control. Had two lunches out, one work, one with family, so no avoiding them and it was carbs overload both times. Urgh! There was nothing else to eat and I get very tired quickly if I miss a meal so I had no option. So even though I tried very hard to compensate the saboteurs won. But not this week. I WILL BE 60. SOMETHING NEXT WEEK. Can you hear me shouting?
keep up the good work everyone and keep posting too.

A few meals out is not the end of the world, if you made the best choice you could and had fun, then as you say you can get back on track and you will Have a great week
Firstly, a Very Happy Birthday for next week. I hope you have a good week leading up to that, and that you hopefully can put the past in the past (in terms of your meals that you felt were excessive) and move forwards - because you know the things you can do to get back on track.
Personally I don't avoid carbs, and I don't think they're bad at all - I choose wholemeal pasta and also wholemeal bread, and I always make sure that I balance my meals with some protein and some good fats, and also lots of vegetables - that way the glycaemic load is lower and I am ensuring I eat plenty of fibre as well. I really don't think it's bad to eat carbs.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy your Birthday when it comes, and that you have a positive week ahead.
Happy 60th birthday for next week! If you enjoyed the occasions then it's okay. It's not as if you are giving up. You are old enough to know better. Ha Ha.
