Hello. Long time no blog!
Well I have had no weigh in for almost 3 weeks... due to working 8 consecutive days in a row then night duty! So, I went to go to a weigh in on Friday afternoon and to my disappointment the class was no longer on!... I decided to ring ww hq and there are classes still on Monday (which is even better can weigh in just before Christmas!)
*anyways according to my own scales I have lost 2.5lb fingers crossed they match!*
Also, I am delighted to find out there are still classes on over the Christmas break defo going to keep me on track!
So the aim of this blog post is outline my Christmas Eve and Day Plan! This plan is put together by the help of my amazing mam!! I couldn't do weight watchers without her!! :)
