Just to say measuring can help after a “blow out” even when the scales aren’t friendly

I’ve been away for a few days and have eaten extremely well and, unusually for me, have also had at least a bottle of wine and a cocktail or two! When I weighed myself this morning I had gained 1.2kgs which was only to be expected but when I measured myself (bust, waist, stomach and hips) the tape measure showed the same figures as the day of my departure - and, no, I didn’t pull it tight😀. So please don’t worry if the scales don’t co-operate, the tape measure just might be your friend.
