Well today's the day, not eating any of the things I want to eat and struggling quite a lot with willpower. Despite my determination, part of me is quite sad that I can't follow my birthday food plan that I'd been looking forward to since December last year. But I stuck to it because I knew if anything compromised my Monday weigh in and body composition results, if they were anything other than the best I can possibly achieve, I would be so angry at myself. So I went shopping in the morning and kept up a new tradition that therapy encouraged me to start last year (I struggle quite significantly with April / my birthday for various reasons) which was to "be good to myself", not rely on others to make my birthday a happier one, so my small way of doing this was buying myself a bunch of flowers to cheer up the flat a little and bring some smile to the room.
The day was spent playing games with friends, and then having a family curry cooked by my dad (another little tradition you could say). So all in all, not too bad and I'm really proud I could stick to the diet today of all days.

| Of course - take a photo of cards, kitty gets cosy |
