(I have accidentally gone slightly over my points, not sure what went wrong with my earlier calculation. I think I did not include my dinner! I thought I had heaps of points left so had 2 biscuits when my Mum visited to simply use some up!!)
Breakfast:
Go Natural Bar (4.5 points)
Lunch:
Did not eat, got news about Uncle and simply forgot
Dinner:
Thai beef mango salad (4 points beef instead of 3, total 6 points)
Snacks:
Rocky Road (2.5 points)
2 x curly wurly (5 points)
Gluten free chocolate muffin (4.5 points)
2 x d'lish biscuits
total 26.5 (allowed 25)
Floor work
done (1/3 for the week, black is done, grey is planned)
Cardio
tomorrow
General
I had some bad news (my Uncle passed away last night) but I refuse to use that as an excuse to go off plan.
He was morbidly obese, a smoker and a heavy drinker.
He was 71.
When my time comes I do not want it to be because of something I could have prevented by looking after myself better.
When we find out when the funeral is I will plan a flight to Queensland for the funeral. It may be just a day trip if dates and times work out.
I have coeliac disease so cannot eat gluten. Given how difficult that can make feeding me (especially if people are not very familiar with a gluten free diet), and in this particular situation with a death in the family, I feel it is not appropriate to be fussy about the point value of what is available. My plan is simply to do the absolute best I can with what is served for however long I am with my relatives. I will save points between now and then to give wiggle room, and exercise as much as practical to give some bonus points, but in the end just do what I can. Is that a cop out or a reasonable approach?

Given the circumstances, I'd say it's NOT a cop out, it's living. You know when you're overeating and the approximate point value of most things...you will be successful Fiona. Sorry about your Uncle.
Sorry to hear about your loss.
I am sorry about your uncle...but i get your point about avoidability...even if I don't live longer, I want to live a fuller life than to be burdened and sickened by way too much weight.
I know you do too.
Yeah, it's not a cop-out when it's your real life happening.
I try to walk extra, and under-estimate.
And eat less and over-estimate....
Probably sets me about right, for both!
My condolences on your loss.
