I'm back from holidays! I had a nice time, but I'm ashamed to say I didn't wholeheartedly enjoy myself all the time, which seems such a waste. I just couldn't shake the self consciousness and anxiety. I think I managed pretty well on the food front, but I haven't weighed in yet, so that really remains to be seen. I made the mistake of weighing myself one afternoon on the hotel scales, and they were a good 2.5 kilos more than my previous weigh in at home. I know scales vary, so I'm hoping it's just that - and more importantly, hoping that my home ones are more accurate. I should have weighed myself this morning but I wanted to get in one day of on plan eating first.
It's a relief to be back and able to be more in control of my food again. Last night we had a quick spaghetti puttanesca for dinner when we got in. Today I had a scone and tea for breakfast, and planning on some kind of salad of roast vegetables, wild rice, and feta cheese for lunch, and then copying Seren's tuna with anchovy and rosemary butter for dinner because it sounds so delicious. Side of broccoli and maybe new potatoes.

Good for you for getting back on track quickly. I'm hoping that, once you've dropped a few lbs (kgs!!) and stuck to it for a couple of weeks, you'll start to trust yourself and also get back to enjoying life and not beating yourself up. It'll come!!
