Diet cokes slowed me down a couple of weeks ago. I sadly report I can no longer do the diet soda on days I really want to lose.

My upswing from the weekend is due to the bottle of champagne (with a splash of cran), the sweet pineapple slices on the ham, the homemade mac&cheese, and perhaps that little bit of chocolate I ate. And maybe the few cocktails I had on Saturday night.

Had weighed myself yesterday morning and the scale was still at that 208.4 - takes a day or two for the scale to catch up.

Going to be really good today and we'll see what happens tomorrow morning.
