One step at a time. I know I did a few more millimetres on the chest dip and may even have managed a whole cm, just can't tell exactly. So it goes, a little bit at a time.
Off to London for a few days tomorrow then wet and cold Scotland. That will be my biggest challenge yet. In the past leaving my home base has always derailed me. I am going to be fanatical about not veering off the exercise and food path. It will just be a bit more difficult in hotels and other people's homes.

Day 32: One foot off the path, but back on the track
I went off the path last night and I was very upset at myself. Was at a rugby charity event and if I had had time to eat before I would have been OK, I think. Lesson learnt. Not a wine issue. Had water in a wine glass all evening. But had been feeling dreadful anyway and a late lunch and all my snacks as necessary so thought I would be OK, but all of a sudden I was starving. Dinner wasn't served until 9pm. Was planning to just sit there and eat just a little bit, all PCP compliant. But I was really, really, really hungry.
Had too much protein. A bit if carb in the form of vichysoisse. And 3 whole asparagus spears! Strikes me again very strongly that people just do not eat enough vegetables as there doesn't ever seem to be any!! I was still very very hungry as the portions were too small so just couldn't stop myself eating the miniature pavlova. My punishment--other than the guilt and disappointment was a very sore tummy as I can't eat dairy due to intolerance.
Am 100% back on track today.
The good thing was that 1) it was for a very good cause, the children of Tohoku, 2) I feel better as All Black legend Stu Wilson was a brilliant speaker and I just laughed and laughed, and 3) I got quite a few comments on either how I was shrinking away or looked fabulous.
So I never lost the way, just was feeling dreadful enough to know that my body needed something but what was in front of me wasn't my choice.
On an up.
